README

Summary

A meta-package to be used by my other Lum libraries to determine their PHP compatibility level, and if any polyfills are required.

All libraries that update to the next lum-compat version must bump their major version at the same time. Even if there are no changes to the library at all, changing the target lum-compat version is breaking compatibility.

Versions

Each version is stored in its own branch, and there will be tags made for each branch as updates are made.

  • v2.x

    • Requires PHP 8.1 as minimum version.
    • Requires the mbstring extension.
    • May provide polyfills for some PHP 9 features in the future.

  • v1.x

    • Requires PHP 7.4 as minimum version.
    • Requires the json extension (which is core in PHP 8.)
    • Will provide polyfills for some PHP 8 features in PHP 7 runtimes.

Usage

This meta-package isn't really useful outside the other Lum PHP libraries.

The production composer.json will use a caret version range operator in the requires property, e.g. ^2.0 to specify the v2.x branch.

Internal composer-dev* files will use a dev branch specifier instead, so for example, 2.x-dev would point to the v2.x branch.
