What's New in ReportingCloud in 2023

Topic

New Composer package names and a new namespace for the PHP SDK and its Laminas module were the changes of 2023. A PHP application that used the former package changes its composer.json and its use statements, as Upgrading shows.

SDKs

  • PHP SDK 4.0 (September 9). The SDK moved to the Composer package textcontrol/textcontrol-reportingcloud and the namespace TextControl\ReportingCloud, which replaces TxTextControl\ReportingCloud. It requires PHP 8.1 or later and supports PHP 8.2. Packagist marks the former package textcontrol/txtextcontrol-reportingcloud as abandoned. Its releases 4.0.0 to 4.0.6 of July 2022 hold the PHP 8.1 refactoring under the old namespace; see 2022. See Installing an SDK.
  • Laminas module 4.0 (September 9). The module textcontrol/textcontrol-laminas-reportingcloud followed with the namespace TextControl\Laminas\ReportingCloud and the same PHP requirement.

Upgrading

  • Replace the package. Remove textcontrol/txtextcontrol-reportingcloud from composer.json and require textcontrol/textcontrol-reportingcloud. Installing an SDK has the command.
  • Change the namespace. Replace TxTextControl\ReportingCloud with TextControl\ReportingCloud in your use statements. A Laminas application uses the module namespace TextControl\Laminas\ReportingCloud.
  • Check the PHP version. The SDK requires PHP 8.1 or later.
