Symlinks don't install correctly when Composer falls back on the PHP zip library

I couldn't figure out why the Discopower module wasn't installing correctly inside my Docker image of SSP. The symlinks under modules/discopower/public/assets/components were being installed as text files containing the path where they would have pointed had they been symlinks. This obviously didn't work so great when my browser tried to load the Jquery Javascript for Discopower.

After further investigation, I tried installing unzip into my Docker image before running composer, and that fixed it. I now have symlinks instead of text files. Clearly, the PHP zip library doesn't understand symlinks.

If possible, installation of this module should require that the unzip or 7z binary be installed on the system and not just the PHP zip library.

If that's not possible, the documentation should at least include this requirement for proper installation.

Ideally, these symlinks wouldn't be necessary, and the disco.twig code that loads these components would point to the files directly instead of the symlinks inside of the module.

Commencez par reproduire l’installation de Composer dans la configuration Docker décrite, en comparant la bibliothèque zip de PHP avec unzip ou 7z. Examinez modules/discopower/public/assets/components et le code disco.twig qui charge ces assets. C’est terminé lorsque le comportement de l’installation ou l’exigence système documentée gère clairement les symlinks.
