Re: Port Image_Color and Image_Canvas to PHP8

Hello, Thanks to Daniel O'Connor (@CloCkWeRX) for merging this. It seems that people from all over the world are working on this ! Unless you have other suggestions of improvement, could you create a new tag ? As was done in HTML_Template_IT, you can add me as a maintainer (please use mathieu.dubois@yahoo.com as email).

Hello, Following the progress from yesterday, I opened 2 PRs for Image_Color: * #3 <https://github.com/pear/Image_Color/pull/3> adds GitHub

    actions for the current code.

* #4 <https://github.com/pear/Image_Color/pull/4> ports the code to

    PHP 8.4 (the branch is based on the branch from the previous PR so
    it's best to first merge #3).

See the details on GitHub. With that, I think one can create a new version of the Image_Color package (1.0.7). This will be used to port Image_Canvas to PHP 8. Thanks in advance, Mathieu Le 24/11/2024 à 22:28, Mathieu Dubois a écrit :

Hi Chuck, Thanks for merging the CI PRs (for the interested reader, this is https://github.com/pear/Image_Color/pull/2 and https://github.com/pear/Image_Canvas/pull/6). I will open the new PR to port to PHP 8 ASAP. With a good CI, it will ease the job. Mathieu Le 24/11/2024 à 17:36, Chuck Burgess a écrit :

    Dear list,

    As I said on another thread about HTML_Template_IT, I haven't
    received an answer about this. Anybody?

    Thanks in advance,

    Dear list,

    I took a bit of time to work on Image_Canvas (it was not
    without a bit of pain):

      * PR #6 (https://github.com/pear/Image_Canvas/pull/6)
        modernize the scripts and add GitHub actions for the
        current code.
      * Building on that, I was able to port to PHP 8. I will open
        the PR after #6 is merged.

    There are 3 caveats however:

      * PostScript output is not tested yet because I have some
        font issue and you need the PS extension
        (https://www.php.net/manual/en/book.ps.php). It should be
        doable.
      * PDF output is not tested because it uses the old PDFlib
        extension. This code needs to be re-done completely
        (probably based on FPDF).
      * As we require a version of Image_Color compatible with PHP
        8, I use a branch in my fork (see composer.json). Of
        course, I will update that.

    Dear list,

    I need to (try to) port Image_Color and Image_Canvas (which
    require Image_Color) to PHP 8.

    For Image_Color this is not too hard. As I did for
    HTML_Template_IT, the goal is to keep compatibility from PHP
    5.6 to PHP 8. The main challenge is to have CI and be able run
    the test s for a large span of PHP version (as PHPUnit changed
    a lot in between). I opened a first PR
    (https://github.com/pear/Image_Color/pull/2) to convert the
    test suite to PHPUnitPolyFill which is very handy. for such cases

    I have 2 branches based on that to add GitHub actions (for CI)
    and to port the code to PHP 8 (I will open the PR after).

    I haven't looked much to Image_Canvas for now but as the tests
    don't use PHPUnit (it's simple scripts), it might be a bit
    simpler.

    As before, I would appreciate any idea on that.

    Thanks in advance,
    Mathieu
