How to run composer in MAMP php version?

Question

I cannot start the linker because my php version on my OS is not updated sufficiently (5.5.36). So I tried to install the composer all over the world using MAMP php (5.6.10)

1) I am creating an alias for my MAMP php

nano ~/.bash_profile
alias phpmamp='/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.6.10/bin/php'

2) Run this line to install the composer

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | phpmamp

3) Run this line to move the composer

sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

Composer installed (composer works on terminals)

This is a tutorial.

But when I want to run composer install, the composer uses my php version ..

Any idea?
