phpCompatInfo future (version 3.1.0)

[Remi Collet]

Hi,

Composer epidemic...

So the "bartlett" channel is also dead (no more updated).

I'm working (again) on switching packages from this channel from pear to
git sources (upstream now distributes a "big" phar, with lot of bundled
libraries, including some symfony ones)

Work is mostly done.

Package are available in my "remi-test" repository and will be pushed
soon in rawhide/epel7 (I'm waiting for PhpParser update)

Packages needed:
  php-PHPParser-1.0.0-0.1.beta1
  php-bartlett-PHP-Reflect-2.0.0-1
  php-bartlett-PHP-CompatInfo-3.1.0-1

Warning, new syntax !

Simple example of a source analysis

$ cd /path/to/sources
$ phpcompatinfo -v analyser:run . extension

(the . argument is not a path, but a "provider" name, defined in
/etc/phpcompatinfo.json configuratiuon file, so the "cd" is mandatory,
for now)

Notice: I will submit a patch to fedora-review to detect and use the
correct syntax command.

As this tool is very important for PHP package maintainer / reviewer,
Tests are very welcome.

Regards,
Remi.

I had to force an update of php-phpunit-PHP-Timer and
php-bartlett-PHP-Reflect to make the phpcompatinfo command work.  The
install of the updated php-bartlett-PHP-CompatInfo did not force those
updates for me.

So far I'm not a fan of the new upstream version :/

I just tried phpcompatinfo v3 on Doctrine Common 2.4.2 [1] and it missed
the reflection and tokenizer extensions -- I used phpcompatinfo v2 to
verify and it found them.

I'm working with upstream on this new version.

There is currently a important regression, as it detects only
dependencies on installed extensions and versions...

But this doesn't explain the issue with reflection and tokenizer
extensions (which are always available)

So, for now, I think version 3.1 is mostly unusable. :(
(I will differ update in rawhide/epel7 until fixed)

Thanks, Fixed.

phpCompatInfo future (version 3.2.0)

[Remi Collet]

phpcompatinfo 3.2 is nearly ready (upstream plan to release it in sync
with php 5.5.15 / 5.4.31, so tomorrow)

In this version

- huge effort on documentation.

especially:
http://php5.laurent-laville.org/compatinfo/manual/3.2/en/migration-guide--cl...

- fix most of regressions detected in 3.1

About extension detection.

See:
http://php5.laurent-laville.org/compatinfo/manual/3.2/en/references.html

* prefetch strategy : references are always loaded
* autodiscover strategy : references loaded only when detected

I will prefer to have all in "prefetch"... as it will not detect
dependencies on not installed (or not available) extensions...

About version loading, references will be loaded for your current
version, references for upper will not be loaded.

This is something I try to convince upstream to change (at least with a
runtime option, but I also know this requires a big work).

I mostly always run latest PHP version with most of extensions
installed... but I'm very probably an exception. And for review, having
"everything" detected seems needed.

RPM are available in my "remi-test" repo (but it will probably have to
update a lot of dependencies as symfony 2.5 is used).
  php-bartlett-PHP-Reflect-2.2.0-0.1.gitfe9d18d
  php-bartlett-PHP-CompatInfo-3.2.0-0.1.git970d967

If you can give this package a try, and report any found issue.

Thanks,
Remi.

phpCompatInfo version 3.2.0

[Remi Collet]

FYI, phpreflect 2.2.0 and phpcompatinfo 3.2.0 are now built
in Fedora 21 and rawhide.

Notice : you can also test it using the upstream phar.

$ wget http://bartlett.laurent-laville.org/get/phpcompatinfo.phar \
        -O /usr/local/bin/phpcompatinfo.phar
$ chmod +x /usr/local/bin/phpcompatinfo.phar

As phpcompatinfo 2.26 is dead, and unmaintained, I also plan to push
this new version in older branch (epel7 first, f20... epel6...) but
later. We really need a stable version, as this is a really important
tool for package reviewer and maintainer.

Remi.
