Description

Here we go again PHP 8.0 reached end of life at 26 Nov 2023

End of life - A release that is no longer supported. Users of this release should upgrade as soon as possible, as they may be exposed to unpatched security vulnerabilities.

PHP: Supported Versions:

  • 8.0 until 26 Nov 2023
  • 8.1 until 26 Nov 2024
  • 8.2 until 8 Dec 2025

It seems that we need to change minimum PHP version to php: ^8.1 in all php generators. We should not only change composer requirement, but check with extra caution that Composer actually can resolve all the deps under PHP 8.1. In other words check that generator builds and actually works.

Current Requirements:

Generator PHP version
php client ^7.4 || ^8.0
Laravel server >= 7.2.5
Lumen server >= 7.2.5
Slim4 server ^7.4 || ^8.0
Symfony server >=7.4.0|>=8.0.2
php-mezzio-ph server ^ 7.3 || ^8.0
php-mezzio-ph-modern server ^8.0
php-dt client ^7.3 || ^8.0
php-dt-modern client ^8.0

Research direction
Update the composer.json files for each PHP generator listed in the issue (php client, Laravel server, Lumen server, Slim4 server, Symfony server, php mezzio ph server, php mezzio ph modern server, php dt client, php dt modern client) to require PHP ^8.1. After updating, run Composer update and ensure all dependencies resolve correctly. Additionally, run the generator's test suite to confirm functionality. No further changes to code logic are expected.
