README

This package returns the legacy each() function which has been removed in PHP 8.0. This can be useful when working with legacy code or with end-of-life packages which still make use of the each() function.

It is therefore not really a polyfill but rather a shim as it provides legacy functionality to modern-day software instead of vice versa. I have still chosen the name polyfill as this term is usually top of mind irrespective of the direction of the port.

Prerequisites

  • PHP 5.3 or later, though the shim will only take effect in PHP 8.x

Installation

Installation can be easily done using Composer:

composer require christiaanbye/polyfill-each
