Here\u2019s a condensed list of things that happened in PHP world during September. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In PHP 8, “error_reporting=E_ALL” will be the new default. Currently, PHP uses “E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE ” for error reporting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Great news for Laravel fans. Laravel 6 has been released. It now follows schematic versioning. Also, this release includes compatibility with Laravel Vapor, improved authorization responses, job middleware, lazy collections, sub-query improvements, among many other improvements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lazy collections will be introduced in Laravel 6.1!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nikita Popov proposed a RFC<\/a> for PHP 8.0 to reclassify current engine warnings. This reclassification is aimed at making the current error and warnings more defined. For example, I think that this will help even more as PHP gets bigger. Clarity in engine warning allows users to write code that catch errors in a clearer manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nikita Popov proposed RFC<\/a> for Union Types (multiple types). This RFC proposes to allow our property types, parameters and returns will be able to handle multiple types. An example is shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please take note that the above are all encapsulated within a class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Personally, I think that this a good move as multiple types will give leeway to the current type system and allow us to express ourselves better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n PHP 7.4.0RC02’s release has been announced by Derick Rethans. The current list of changes for PHP 7.4 can be viewed on GitHub<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Microsoft has announced that they have introduced PHP Dependency Graph<\/a> for their GitHub platform. Dependency graph was first introduced for JavaScript NPM packages. With this, GitHub users will be able to have a glance on the possible security issues announced for the composer packages they are using. There is also an opt-in available for their beta “automatic security fixes” which sends pull requests to update your Their call for paper is ending on 15 October UTC! If you want to be a part of this amazing PHP conference, do submit your paper on their papercall website<\/a>! <\/p>\n\n\n\n It has been an exciting month of September for PHP.
