I'd like to recommend that support for Composer be added, and that the package be made available through Packagist.

Alexia commented 9 years ago

I really want to say no since I am not fond of Composer, but I know people will keep asking. :P I made an account earlier and will look into it.

@kherge https://packagist.org/packages/alexia/php7mar Does that look correct to you? I setup the automatic updater hook on GitHub as well.

It works, thanks:

You might want to tag a release soon, though (even if unstable), so it can be installed without dev-master. Maybe even package it up into a phar so it can be run directly from the command line after global installation, like so:

$ php7mar -f=.

There are two others PHP 7 migration tools that I looked at, and tested - both requiring composer.

1) https://github.com/gisostallenberg/php-to-7-aid 2) https://github.com/Firehed/php7ize

Neither of the above were as helpful or as effective as https://github.com/Alexia/php7mar in my server environment which does not normally need to deal with "Composer", or use *.phar packages or other library boxes for a basic PHP CLI.

Thanks @Alexia for a good minimalism approach.

Alexia commented 9 years ago

Thanks. That is why the Composer package type is set to project. It allows people to install it through Composer, but it will run fine independently. :D
