sebastianbergmann/recursion-context

This system is a PHP library focused on managing recursion contexts, featuring a modernized Context API with strict typing and memory leak prevention. It provides tooling for static analysis via PHPStan and automates release note extraction, while maintaining comprehensive test coverage for object and array handling.

A change to existing behaviour in tools — 170 commits, 4 files.

A new PHP script, \build/scripts/extract-release-notes.php\, has been added to the build tooling. This utility automates the extraction of release notes from the \ChangeLog.md\ file based on a specified version tag, supporting the workflow of creating releases when tags are pushed.

The library now uses a dedicated \Marker\ class to track arrays within the recursion context, replacing the previous internal mechanism. The \Context\ class has been modernized with strict typing, PHP 8.0+ features (such as union types and constructor property promotion), and improved performance by using \spl\_object\_id()\ instead of \spl\_object\_hash()\. Additionally, the custom \Exception\ interface and \InvalidArgumentException\ class have been removed in favor of standard PHP exceptions, and the \Context\ destructor now properly cleans up markers from tracked arrays to prevent memory leaks.

src · high confidence

The project has replaced Psalm with PHPStan for static analysis, introducing a new phpstan.neon configuration file that sets the analysis level to 10 and enables strict rules. This change is accompanied by updates to the PHPUnit configuration (phpunit.xml) and the removal of the legacy phpunit.xml.dist file, reflecting a broader shift in development tooling and configuration standards.

(repo-wide) · high confidence

Added tests for the Context class, covering object and array handling, self-referencing structures, and context isolation.

tests · high confidence

The project has been upgraded to require PHP 8.4 or higher, dropping support for all previous PHP versions. This major version bump (now 8.0-dev) also updates the development dependency phpunit/phpunit to version ^13.3.4. Additionally, the composer.json configuration has been modernized with platform targeting, optimized autoloading, sorted packages, and a switch to HTTPS for the homepage and support URLs.

(dependencies) · high confidence

The PHPStan static analysis tool and its associated extensions in the \tools/.phpstan\ directory have been updated to version 2.2.14, along with \phpstan/phpstan-strict-rules\ (2.0.12) and \ergebnis/phpstan-rules\ (2.13.1). This upgrade brings the latest rule sets and bug fixes to the local development environment, ensuring that static analysis runs against the most current standards for code quality and type safety.
