composer setup fails. no 4.x release

[bnomei]

composer require mzur/kirby-uniform:^4.0

[InvalidArgumentException] Could not find package mzur/kirby-uniform in a version matching ^4.0

Yeah, there is no 4.0 release yet. I'm still waiting for the Kirby guys to resolve my pull request.

[bnomei]

i see but... composer require mzur/kirby-uniform:"dev-master as 4.0.0" fails as well.

Problem 1

• Installation request for mzur/kirby-uniform dev-master as 4.0.0 -> satisfiable by mzur/kirby-uniform[dev-master].
• mzur/kirby-uniform dev-master requires getkirby/cms dev-develop || >=3.0.0-beta-4.2 -> no matching package found.

for my plugins i am using

"require": {
        "getkirby/cms": "dev-master as 3.0.0"
},

https://github.com/bnomei/kirby3-autoid/blob/master/composer.json#L28

[bnomei]

and

"minimum-stability": "beta"

because of this... https://github.com/k-next/devkit/blob/master/composer.json#L13

I've never seen a syntax like dev-master as 4.0.0 before. Can you point me to where it is documented? As far as I know you have to use just dev-master instead.

You can also use @beta to override the minimum stability settings for a package (example). But this would not work for Uniform yet as there is not even a 4.0 beta.

[bnomei]

its a shorthand, usefull in terminal when calling require, for an alias. the dev-master as 3.0.0 is for the getkirby/cms requirement. and yes for uniform i could just use dev-master but i wanted to hint that using 3.x will not work. and yes as well – alias are considered bad practice and i will stop using them once kirby next is released. about beta in plugins coomposer.json: thats needed to make the plugin install with the kirby devkit which is flagged as beta. composer will reject the require otherwise.

[bnomei]

i tried using the zip and call composer there but requirements kirby-form and kirby-flash also have the same setup. i can not get it to work with the devkit oneway or the other.

[mzur]

Try installing getkirby/cms:>=3.0.0-beta-4.2 (from the beta releases in the Notion journal) and then install Uniform with mzur/uniform:dev-master.

[bnomei]

solved it: using dev-master for getkirby/cms and kirby-uniform does work with my and @omz13 plugins.

"require": {
    "getkirby/cms": "dev-master",
    "bnomei/kirby3-feed": "^1.0",
    "omz13/kirby3-xmlsitemap": "^0.4.4",
    "mzur/kirby-uniform": "dev-master"
  }
