PHP 8.2 Support

[dakujem]

Feature Request

I'm testing an RC release of PHP 8.2, but this package fails to install due to version restrictions in composer.json. I would welcome the addition of PHP 8.2 to to the list of supported PHP versions.

Q	A
New Feature	yes
RFC	no
BC Break	no

Summary

Hello, I understand that this package is security-only and feature-complete. However - does that mean no support for future PHP versions is coming?

What about adding a benevolent version constaraint? That would allow us to install the package, and, if issues do occur, the community could provide MRs. That would reduce the amount of work needed for the maintainers ofthis package to minimum.

This package is considered feature-complete, and is now in security-only maintenance mode, following a decision by the Technical Steering Committee. If you have a security issue, please follow our security reporting guidelines. If you wish to take on the role of maintainer, please nominate yourself

Sorry, I fail to understand. It's a documentation update.

MY original post boils down to these two questions:

• Will there be an update for this repo that supports PHP 8.2?
• Is there anything I can help with?

Will there be an update for this repo that supports PHP 8.2?

Yes

Is there anything I can help with?

Include a renovate.json referencing the work done @ https://github.com/laminas/.github/pull/40, and in theory, we should get PHP 8.2 added to the dependency range via automation.

@internalsystemerror I tried looking at the latest renovate runs:

https://app.renovatebot.com/dashboard#github/laminas/laminas-xml/872647167

DEBUG: packageFiles with updates
{
  "baseBranch": "1.5.x",
  "config": {
    "composer": [
      {
        "packageFile": "composer.json",
        "deps": [
          {
            "depType": "require",
            "depName": "php",
            "currentValue": "^7.3 || ~8.0.0 || ~8.1.0",
            "datasource": "github-tags",
            "packageName": "php/php-src",
            "extractVersion": "^php-(?<version>.*)$",
            "depIndex": 0,
            "updates": [],
            "warnings": [],
            "versioning": "composer",
            "sourceUrl": "https://github.com/php/php-src",
            "currentVersion": "8.1.12"
          },

I suppose it will pick up 8.2.0 once it becomes currentVersion?

[internalsystemerror]

The currentVersion there is what renovate thinks the current version used based on the currentValue is I believe. It should propose 8.2.0 once that gets released, but it seems that the unstable versions aren't being picked up as I would have expected 8.2.0RC5.

Yeah, should've been that, according to https://github.com/laminas/.github/pull/37 :thinking:
