[Solved] Help with PHP and Composer

Hi there! I'm trying to make php and composer work. I have this in environment.systemPackages:

    (pkgs.php82.buildEnv {
      extensions = ({ enabled, all }: enabled ++ (with all; [
        xdebug
        redis
      ]));
      extraConfig = ''
        memory_limit=2G
        xdebug.mode=debug
      '';
    })
    php82Extensions.redis

The problem is that while running php -m correctly prints that redis extension is installed, composer does not, because it uses a different php:

  • file $(which php) prints the path /nix/store/igx8j4qjxy9jyj8kjyccwarnzqq5vsml-php-with-extensions-8.2.9/bin/php
  • cat $(which composer) shows that it's a wrapper for '/nix/store/lv4prxa52zifr54ws56iz3b9kdhs1b5w-php-with-extensions-8.2.9/bin/php' --add-flags '/nix/store/avqj0662f4gg2s875zlbbjajx6fm6bl0-php-composer-2.5.5/libexec/composer/composer.phar'

Note that the path to php is different. Is there any way to correct it on my side? I'd like to avoid having to install composer manually
