Cannot be used with PHP version over 5.6
ronald2wing opened this issue · comments
drupol/phposinfo 1.6.1.2 requires php ^5.3 || ^5.4 || ^5.5 || ^5.6 -> your PHP version (7) does not satisfy that requirement.
The dependency does not allow php version over 5.6.
@drupol, why exactly is there such a constrain in place? :/ As far as I see, there's no real reason to have such a limitation code-wise.
It's definitely my own short-sightedness as well as I should have noticed such an issue beforehand.
Please use 4.17.10 & 3.48.10 releases until this issue has been cleared + thank you very much for pointing this out!
Hi,
drupol/phposinfo 1.6.1.2 requires php ^5.3 || ^5.4 || ^5.5 || ^5.6
drupol/phposinfo 1.6.1 requires php >= 7.1.3
Here's how I work with my branches, it may not be the best workflow, but I wasn't able to find such an easier way to maintain a project for different versions of PHP.
- Develop in
masterbranch (for PHP >= 7.1.3) - Tag a new release in
master, ex: 1.7.0 - Create a new branch 1.7.0.0 from
master - Merge the previous branch
1.6.0.0on it to ensure PHP compatibility with lower versions of PHP. - Tag a new release 1.7.0.1
I wasn't able to find a better branching model for maintaining a package working with different versions of PHP.
Let me know if I can improve this so it works for you.
Thanks.
I guess just updating the composer.json from
`"drupol/phposinfo": "^1.6.1.2",`
to
`"drupol/phposinfo": "^1.6.1",`
Will be sufficient to get it working for all the PHP versions.
Yup one of the things there is indeed the fact that the constraint is defined in such a strict manner. Will change that.
The version that is not covered after making this change though: 7.0
I'd take that the version that works on 5.X would work just fine on 7.0 as well (if the constraints on said package could be expanded a bit.
Hi,
I just tagged 1.6.1.3 to support PHP 7.0.
Thanks :)
Thank you as well :)
Took some extra time to make sure that this will not be missed in the future.
