Install dependency (doctrine/dbal) on composer laravel
I am trying to execute a migration to rename some columns and I got an exception.
As I read on the documentation I have to add the doctrine/dbal dependency to my composer.json file. How do I do that? Which is the correct composer.json file. I have many in my application. Is the one that is on the same level as the folders app,bootstrap, public and vendor.
If so how do I add that dependency. Do I have to download anything?
By the way im using easyphp, not wamp!
Edit 1
After doing that the console throws this error

1) To install dependency , run this command
composer require doctrine/dbal
2) For 'git' is not recognized error, either you don't have git installed or the PATH is not added in the environment variables.
To add this dependency open the composer.json at the root of your project (in the same level as app, public etc.) and in the require section add the doctrine/dbal package like:
"require": {
"laravel/framework": "4.1.*",
"doctrine/dbal": "v2.4.2"
},
Save the file and run composer update
Edit
You probably installed git with the default settings and it's not in your PATH env.
Open Git Bash (it was installed with git - you will find it in your programs) and do composer update. By the way it's far better that windows command prompt.
composer update cause updates to every package in composer.json and overwriting composer.lock? I prefer using only composer install to be safe because I have experienced things going terribly wrong after blindly calling composer update.
php artisan migrate its showing error In AbstractPlatform.php line 423: Unknown database type enum requested, Doctrine\DBAL\Platforms\MySqlPlatform may not support it.
If you are getting error while running migration try this
composer require doctrine/dbal:2.*
