[FIXED] Composer Yii2 - install kartik

Issue

When I type:

php composer.phar require kartik-v/yii2-money "*"

./composer.json has been updated
Loading composer repositories with package information
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

  Problem 1
    - yiisoft/yii2 2.0.1 requires bower-asset/jquery 2.1.*@stable | 1.11.*@stable -> no matching package found.
    - yiisoft/yii2 2.0.1 requires bower-asset/jquery 2.1.*@stable | 1.11.*@stable -> no matching package found.
    - Installation request for yiisoft/yii2 == 2.0.1.0 -> satisfiable by yiisoft/yii2[2.0.1].

Potential causes:
 - A typo in the package name
 - The package is not available in a stable-enough version according to your minimum-stability setting

Installation failed, reverting ./composer.json to its original content.

I have Yii 2.0.1 installed on my server and here is my composer.json:

{
    "name": "yiisoft/yii2-app-advanced",
    "description": "Yii 2 Advanced Application Template",
    "keywords": ["yii2", "framework", "advanced", "application template"],
    "homepage": "http://www.yiiframework.com/",

        "yiisoft/yii2-codeception": "*",
        "yiisoft/yii2-debug": "*",
        "yiisoft/yii2-gii": "*",
        "yiisoft/yii2-faker": "*"
    },
    "config": {
        "process-timeout": 1800
    },
    "extra": {
        "asset-installer-paths": {
            "npm-asset-library": "vendor/npm",
            "bower-asset-library": "vendor/bower"
        }
    }
}

Solution

Both extension and its required base have stable releases so I think this setting:

"minimum-stability": "stable"

shouldn't cause the error.

Most likely you simply forgot to install composer asset plugin (read more in official documentation and extension page). To install it just execute this command once:

composer global require "fxp/composer-asset-plugin:1.0.0-beta4"
