v2.2.0

[2.2.0] - 2025-01-10

Important

Initially, in the previous 2.1.0 release, several functions were deprecated (see Deprecated under 2.1.0 here).
After much thought on the direction I want this library to move in, I am reversing my decision to deprecate the Array and Temperature functions mentioned.

Added

• Dates::formatDifferenceOutput() a private function to handle formatting the output for Dates::timeDifference()
• Dates::INTERVAL_UNITS constant.
• Added new parameter $includeBcZones to Dates::timezoneInfo() and Dates::validTimezone()
  • If true, includes all backwards compatible (and outdated) timezones.
• Added Psalm and RectorPHP as dev-dependencies.

Changed

• Arrays::flatten(), Arrays::mapDeep(), and all the temperature related functions in Conversions are no longer deprecated.
• New tests added for the Image class. Still a work in progress; working toward no 'codeCoverageIgnore'.
• Dates::timeDifference() logic was changed and a new parameter $extendedOutput added.
  • If this parameter is false (default), it returns the same output as usual.
  • If this parameter is true, it formats the output with available non-zero DateInterval units. For example: 2 days 2 hours 20 minutes old.
• BC BREAK: Dates::timeDifference() output no longer uses '(s)'. Will add 's' if greater than one.
• Arrays class has gone through a bit of a refactor:
  • Arrays::mapDeep() updated to avoid circular references when dealing with objects.
    • New PHPUnit tests added to cover mapDeep() as well.
  • Updated the Arrays class for psalm/phpstan templates/generics.
    • Still something I am admittedly not highly experienced with, so it may look/feel a little wonky. Going to improve it as I can.
• Optimized the Conversion::haversineDistance() method.
• Refactored unit tests.
• Changes throughout to make fixes and improvements reported by Psalm.
