You could create a composer.json file by using the composer init command whilst in the directory you want it to be created in
composer init
or
path/to/composer.phar init

You may need to create a file called 'composer.json' See this document "https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md#declaring-dependencies"

I just found on other topic that you can use :
php composer.phar --working-dir=/home/user/folder/ update

In the root of your project. Because you mentioned symfony, just have a look at the composer.json
from the symfony-standard edition
https://github.com/symfony/symfony-standard/
Or even better: Follow the official instructions and use symfony-standard as starting point for your project directly.
Start by visiting the Symfony2 download page at http://symfony.com/download. On this page, you'll see the Symfony Standard Edition, which is the main Symfony2 distribution.
You can forkt it directly from github.
