phpseclib - later versions (>0.3.8)?

[judgej]

phpseclib 0.3.8 is a year old now. Versions 1.0.0 and 2.0.0 are now out, and are being used by framewords such as Laravel 5.1. This makes installing flysystem-sftp difficult on modern frameworks.

I don't know what v1 and v2 of phpseclib bring, and whether they would work for flysystem-sftp, but would they be compatible? Could the version requirements be extended?

[judgej]

Rate of development on phpseclib is pretty crazy. Nice to see, but keeping up is a full time job :-)

[judgej]

Okay, going crazy - trying to install from a fork with a dependency of phplibsec 2.0 to see if it all works:

{
    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "https://github.com/academe/flysystem-sftp.git"
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "phpseclib/phpseclib": "^2.0",
        "league/flysystem-sftp": "~1.0"
    }
}

Still getting the error:

It's as though composer is ignoring the repositories section. Why would it do that? Is composer broken - getting its composer.json from packagist even when it's told what repository to in? Ah, no - I need to go to dev-master. Dhoh.

Edit: All installed, but must go, will test later.

#11

[frankdejonge]

@judgej which laravel package uses the phpseclib package? I didn't see anything in the laravel/framework repo.

[judgej]

Hmm, not sure, maybe it's something else I have installed.

[judgej]

I can't find anything that uses it, except a direct require in my history from a few weeks ago. Maybe I installed it while trying something out and forgot. I've just removed it (2.0.0) and now league/flysystem-sftp installs okay by pulling in phpseclib/phpseclib (0.3.10).

Right, so what I have now seems to work, and so long as nothing else needs a newer flysytem-sftp then I'm okay. I'll leave it at that for now. Sorry for wasting your time!

It looks like @pilotftzi is on the case with 2.0.0 anyway. Not sure if you want to close this issue, or leave it open as a placeholder for PR #11 ?

[soee]

If we do not jump to 2.0, flysystem-sftp will fail on PHP7 because of phpseclib. See this.

I'm having an issue with a sftp server where I can not connect with, it just hangs. This is caused by a bug in phpseclib ~0.3 which was fixed in ~1.0. Please update the dependency :)

[frankdejonge]

@soee sorry for the wait guys, I'll be tackling this issue tomorrow.

[frankdejonge]

Sorry for the wait people, been super busy. I'll get this up to date tomorrow, possibly tonight fingers crossed.

[frankdejonge]

It's released as 1.0.7

[soee]

@frankdejonge Than you very much! :)

[mediamonks-robert]

Thanks! :)
