Override PHP base dependency in composer

You can use --ignore-platform-reqs option for composer commands like install, update etc.

–ignore-platform-reqs: ignore php, hhvm, lib-* and ext-* requirements and force the installation even if the local machine does not fulfill these. See also the platform config option.

So you can try with

composer install --ignore-platform-reqs
