Upgrade

2.x -> 3.x

The new minimal requirements are:

  • PHP 8.1
  • Laravel 10
  • Enum 4.1

Interface Changes

If you are using custom Country or Address models in your application, make sure they comply with the following changes:

  1. The iso2Code() and the getName() methods have been added to the Country interface.
  2. The model() method has been added to the Address interface

Enum Interface

The AddressType, Gender, NameOrder, ProvinceType, ZoneMemberType, and ZoneScope interfaces now extend the v4.1 EnumInterface, meaning they have more methods than before.

It's almost certain that you don't need to do anything with it, because the base Enum class implements those methods anyway. Regardless of that, it's a breaking change.

1.x -> 2.x

The new minimal requirements are:

  • PHP 7.3+
  • Laravel 6+

Enum Upgrade to V3

The address module has upgraded its enum dependency from v2 to v3. This means that all the __default constants have been renamed to __DEFAULT (value unchanged).

Affected classes:

  • AddressType
  • NameOrder
  • ProvinceType

All your enums must be upgraded to v3. This way the codebase fully complies with the PSR-1 standard.

This is a breaking change, so you have to check your codebase for enums that have __default constants defined and rename them to __DEFAULT.

Interface Changes

Address

The Address interface has 2 new methods. If you implemented your own variant of this model, make sure these methods are there, and have this signature:

public function country(): BelongsTo;
public function province(): BelongsTo;

Country

The Country interface has a new method. If you implemented your own variant of this model, make sure the new method is there, and has this signature:

public function provinces(): HasMany;

Person

The string return type declaration has been added to the Person interface's getFullName method:

public function getFullName(): string;

If you implemented your own variant of this model, make sure the method signature matches the new definition.
