# Installing Composer Globally on CentOS 7
First you need to make sure your system is up-do-date, for that you need to run
yum -y update
Download and install Composer by executing the following command:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
Once the process completes, you can make the ‘composer.phar’ file executable by running the following command:
chmod +x composer.phar
Now use the following commands to make composer available globally for all users in your system, which can be used for all php applications on that system:
mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
You can also check the version of composer by running bellow command:
composer -V
And you are ready to go.
