Laravel 5.1 support?

[Tortue Torche]

Hi folks,

I see in the composer.json of this package that we need Laravel >= 5.2 as a minimum requirement to use it.
Is there any particular reason for this version constraint?
Can you also support Laravel 5.1 (which is a LTS release)?

Cheers,

I'll need to have a look around, but I'm pretty sure we can bring that minimum down to 5.1.

I'm sure it is much more easy to upgrade your project to Laravel 5.2. Look at the upgrade Guide, easy: https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/upgrade#upgrade-5.2.0
I upgrade it the next day of the official release. The project is a big one, and it takes 30-60 minutes to upgrade.

Of course we can upgrade our projects to Laravel 5.2
But for big projects, I work only with Long Term Support releases.
I think they are made for this, otherwise I don't know why they exist 😼

It's open source. :) PRs welcomed.
