I am a beginner in programming trying to implement Ratchet.
This is my current file structure
D:\Xampp
composer.phar
htdocs
Ratchet
composer.json
bin
Chat.php
src
Chat-Server.php
And I ran the command
php composer.phar install --dev
The following error message appears
Composer could not find a composer.json file in D:\xampp
To initialize a project, please create a composer.json file as described in the
http://getcomposer.org/ "Getting Started" section
I tried using
php composer.phar --working-dir=htdocs/Ratchet update
But it still doesn't work. The tutorial on Ratchet is not very clear either, can someone guide me on what I should do next?

This kind of duplicates this question: Updating the composer.phar on Symfony2
Though to answer it:
You need to run composer.phar in the directory in which your composer.json
lies, so the correct execution path would be the Ratchet directory with this command:
../../composer.phar install --dev
