README

Provides various compatibility functions required for PHP (temporary) migration.

Warning

This extension is intended for temporary use only. In other words, code in the production environment should not rely on this implementation as much as possible, and should be gradually phased out when it is safe to do so.

Supported Versions

  • Extension: PHP >= 8.0, 8.3 >= PHP
  • Library: PHP >= 7.4, 8.3 >= PHP

Library is introduced for migration to PHP 8.x with the same code base. If you do not need to work with the same code base, you can use only the Extension.

Usage

Install

This repository contains an Extension that provides the main compatibility and an assisting Library, each of which must be installed separately.

Extension can be installed in the following steps. Note that the PHP common build tool chain is required.

$ cd "ext"
$ phpize
$ ./configure
$ make -j$(nproc)
$ make test
$ sudo make install

Don't forget to enable extension. (Maybe create a *.ini file or use docker-php-ext-enable)

$ echo "extension=colopl_bc" | sudo tee "$(php-config --ini-dir)/10-colopl_bc.ini"
$ php -m | grep "colopl_bc"
colopl_bc

The library is installed in the following steps.

$ composer require "colopl/colopl_bc"

Be sure to keep the Extension and Library the same version.

Code conversion with Rector

The colopl/colopl_bc package contains Rector rules to convert your code to the functions provided by the existing ext-colopl_bc. This can be utilized to save time when dealing with large code bases.

For each rule, check the rule definition file src/Rector. The most common configuration for migrating from PHP 7.x to 8.x is as follows:

<?php
/* ~~~ */
    $rectorConfig->rules([
        SwitchCaseToEqualRector::class,
        ArrayFuncToBCMigrateRector::class,
        SortToBCMigrateRector::class,
        EqualToBCMigrateRector::class,
        GreaterToBCMigrateRector::class,
        GreaterOrEqualToBCMigrateRector::class,
        NotEqualToBCMigrateRector::class,
        SmallerToBCMigrateRector::class,
        SmallerOrEqualToBCMigrateRector::class,
        SpaceshipToBCMigrateRector::class
    ]);
/* ~~~ */

API references

INI directives

colopl_bc.php74.compare_mode (default: 0)

Sets the compatibility check mode for various comparison operators (e.g. ==).

  • 0 (COLOPL_BC_PHP74_COMPARE_MODE_SILENT)

It does not perform compatibility checks and always uses the results of older behavior. Suitable for use in production environments.

  • 1 (COLOPL_BC_PHP74_COMPARE_MODE_DEPRECATED)

Compares the result with the result of a native PHP operator and raises an error equivalent to E_DEPRECATED if the results are different.

  • 2 (COLOPL_BC_PHP74_COMPARE_MODE_LOG)

Compares the results of native PHP operators and sends a log to the running SAPI if the results are different.

colopl_bc.php74.sort_mode (default: 0)

Sets the compatibility check mode for various unstable sort algorithms.

  • 0 (COLOPL_BC_PHP74_COMPARE_MODE_SILENT)

It does not perform compatibility checks and always uses the results of older behavior. Suitable for use in production environments.

  • 1 (COLOPL_BC_PHP74_COMPARE_MODE_DEPRECATED)

Compares the result with the result of a native PHP function and raises an error equivalent to E_DEPRECATED if the results are different.

  • 2 (COLOPL_BC_PHP74_COMPARE_MODE_LOG)

Compares the results of native PHP functions and sends a log to the running SAPI if the results are different.

Constants

Please check the settings of the corresponding ini directives.

  • COLOPL_BC_PHP74_COMPARE_MODE_DEPRECATED = 1
  • COLOPL_BC_PHP75_COMPARE_MODE_LOG = 2
  • COLOPL_BC_PHP74_SORT_MODE_SILENT = 0

Functions

  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\ksort()
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\krsort()
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\asort()
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\arsort()
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\sort()
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\rsort()
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\usort()
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\uasort()
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\uksort()
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\array_multisort()

Sorting is performed using the previous unstable sorting algorithm.

These compatibilities can also be checked at runtime. See the colopl_bc.php74.sort_mode INI directive for details.

  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\in_array()
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\array_search()
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\array_keys()

These functions use older comparison algorithms than PHP 8.0 for their internal use.

These compatibilities can also be checked at runtime. See the colopl_bc.php74.compare_mode INI directive for details.

  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\eq() (==)
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\neq() (!=)
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\lt() (<)
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\lte() (<=)
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\gt() (>)
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\gte() (>=)
  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php74\spaceship() (<=>)

For the corresponding comparison operator, returns results that reproduce the older behavior.

These compatibilities can also be checked at runtime. See the colopl_bc.php74.compare_mode INI directive for details.

  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php70\srand()

Seed random numbers.

Warning

srand() provided by colopl_bc are based on the glibc srand() / rand() algorithm. The results may differ from those of the non glibc environments, e.g. Alpine Linux.

  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php70\rand()

Generate random numbers.

Warning

rand() provided by colopl_bc are based on the glibc srand() / rand() algorithm. The results may differ from those of the non glibc environments, e.g. Alpine Linux.

  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php70\getrandmax()

Returns the maximum value that can be returned by a call to Colopl\ColoplBc\Php70\rand().

Warning

rand() provided by colopl_bc are based on the glibc srand() / rand() algorithm. The results may differ from those of the non glibc environments, e.g. Alpine Linux.

  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php70\shuffle()

This function shuffles (randomizes the order of the elements in) an array.

Warning

shuffle() use Colopl\ColoplBc\Php70\rand() algorithm internally, by colopl_bc are based on the glibc srand() / rand() algorithm. The results may differ from those of the non glibc environments, e.g. Alpine Linux.

  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php70\str_shuffle()

str_shuffle() shuffles a string. One permutation of all possible is created.

Warning

str_shuffle() use Colopl\ColoplBc\Php70\rand() algorighm internally, by colopl_bc are based on the glibc srand() / rand() algorithm. The results may differ from those of the non glibc environments, e.g. Alpine Linux.

  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php70\array_rand()

Picks one or more random entries out of an array, and returns the key (or keys) of the random entries.

Warning

array_rand() use Colopl\ColoplBc\Php70\rand() algorithm internally, by colopl_bc are based on the glibc srand() / rand() algorithm. The results may differ from those of the non glibc environments, e.g. Alpine Linux.

  • Colopl\ColoplBc\Php70\mt_srand()
