Composer

In order to detect dependencies, Trivy searches for composer.lock.

Trivy also supports dependency trees; however, to display an accurate tree, it needs to know whether each package is a direct dependency of the project. Since this information is not included in composer.lock, Trivy parses composer.json, which should be located next to composer.lock. If you want to see the dependency tree, please ensure that composer.json is present.
