Fork of CakePHP 2 with support for PHP8

For original README content please check original repository: https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/tree/2.x

Installation

This repository is not available in packagist, therefore your project's composer.json must be changed to point to custom repository.

Example configuration:

{
	"require": {
		"cakephp/cakephp": "dev-master as 2.10.24",
	},
	"repositories": [
        {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "https://github.com/kamilwylegala/cakephp2-php8"
        }
    ]
}

It means that composer will look at master branch of repository configured under repositories to resolve update of cakephp/cakephp package.

Changelog

2021-12-20

• Fixed deprecation notices in PHP 8.1 for production code implementations:
  • ArrayAccess
  • Countable
  • IteratorAggregate
• PHP 8.0 requirement in composer.json
• Warning: Tests are not updated, Cake's tests rely on old version of PHPUnit so running them may show a lot of deprecations notices. Added issue to cover it: #7

2021-02-24

• Fixed ErrorHandler accordingly to PHP8 migration guide. Otherwise, error handler is logging too much and doesn't respect configured error_reporting.
