installing to existing Lumen Project has errors.

[JenuelDev]

• Laravel-mongodb Version: 3.8
• PHP Version: 7.2
• Database Driver & Version: Lumen 6.0

Description:

We have an existing project, We tried to install the jenssegers/mongodb package but it doesn't work.

Steps to reproduce

1. composer require jenssegers/mongodb

Expected behaviour

It should install

Actual behaviour

when installing it added on the composer.json but did not install the package. and this is the error came out

The documentation states that 3.8 requires Laravel/Lumen 8. See here -> https://github.com/jenssegers/laravel-mongodb#laravel-version-compatibility

I can also see this aligns with the composer output message relating to jenssegers/mongdb v3.8.0 requiring illuminate/events greater than 8.0. The docs state Laravel/Lumen 6 will be supported by jensseger/mongodb version 3.6.*

Hello,

Quite interesting why composer picked up version ^8 for your Lumen installation.

Just require version 3.6 for your installation.

Thanks!

It will be the composer file for jenssegers/mongodb that is forcing the dependency check. See here -> https://github.com/jenssegers/laravel-mongodb/blob/master/composer.json

"require": {
        "illuminate/support": "^8.0",
        "illuminate/container": "^8.0",
        "illuminate/database": "^8.0",
        "illuminate/events": "^8.0",
        "mongodb/mongodb": "^1.6"
    }```

I know, however composer should have picked up compatible version on it's own AFAIK.

Thanks!

I was able to fix it now by updating my lumen to the latest version thanks.
