A major new feature release, see release announcement.

• We'd like to emphasize that this component is production ready and battle-tested. We plan to support all long-term support (LTS) releases for at least 24 months, so you have a rock-solid foundation to build on top of.

• The v4 release will be the way forward for this package. However, we will still actively support v3 and v2 to provide a smooth upgrade path for those not yet on PHP 8.1+. If you're using an older PHP version, you may use either version which all provide a compatible API but may not take advantage of newer language features. You may target multiple versions at the same time to support a wider range of PHP versions:

  • 4.x branch (PHP 8.1+)
  • 3.x branch (PHP 7.1+)
  • 2.x branch (PHP 5.3+)

This update involves some major changes over the previous v1.0.0 release that has been deprecated since 2013. Accordingly, most consumers of this package should not be affected by any BC breaks. See below for more details:

• Feature / BC break: Change to Promise-based APIs instead of callbacks (continuation-passing style). Support promise cancellation and upcoming Promise v3. (#6, #7, #9 and #46 by @clue)

• Feature: Add new await() function (import from clue/reactphp-block). (#8 by @clue and #39 by @SimonFrings)

• Minor documentation improvements. (#38 by @SimonFrings and #53 by @nhedger)

• Improve test suite and add .gitattributes to exclude dev files from exports. Run tests on PHP 8.1, PHPUnit 9, switch to GitHub actions and clean up test suite. (#2, #3, #4, #5 and #10 by @clue)
