The Html2Wiki extension already uses Composer to install and satisfy dependencies. It would be even better if the extension itself were listed on Packagist and were installable with Composer.
Use Satis if that helps

- T467: RfC: Extension management with Composer
Event Timeline
Comment Actions
I found this task randomly. We had a request for comment and talked about using composer at length. That eventually got declined via T467.
Composer is meant to resolve library dependencies, and we found out it would not quite work for installing and registering an extension with MediaWiki.
Instead we have:
- an equivalent of Satis to host extensions https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:ExtensionDistributor
- a system to define how an extension hook into MediaWiki https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Extension_registration
