image-generator

• Requires PHP 8.1 or newer
• Added a simple test to verify image generation is not broken
• Added GitHub Actions for running the test(s)
• Removed the deprecated makePlaceholderImage function (hence the bump to v3)

Full Changelog: https://github.com/nicoverbruggen/image-generator/compare/v2.2.0...v3.0.0

What's Changed

• Fix deprecated method calling itself (makePlaceholderImage() now correctly calls generate(), although this deprecated function will be removed in v3)
• When outputting the image to the output buffer, the output buffer is now erased beforehand using ob_clean()
• Fix warnings for upcoming PHP 8.1 by @mjot in https://github.com/nicoverbruggen/image-generator/pull/4

New Contributors

• @mjot made their first contribution in https://github.com/nicoverbruggen/image-generator/pull/4

Full Changelog: https://github.com/nicoverbruggen/image-generator/compare/v2.1.0...v2.2.0

The package has been updated for the upcoming release of PHP 8.1!

This is a simple maintenance release so that there are no more warnings about the following:

• the loss of precision from implicit casts (float to int)
• passing null to the third parameter of str_replace is deprecated

The package has been updated for PHP 8!

What's new

With named parameter support, now you can do this:

(new ImageGenerator(
    targetSize: "150x150",
    fontPath: "/System/Library/Fonts/Supplemental/Arial.ttf",
    fontSize: 20
))->generate(text: "Hello world");

Upgrade instructions

• The constructor of ImageGenerator has changed, so you will want to adopt named parameters.
• The method makePlaceholderImage still exists (because it was still in v2.0.0), but it is deprecated in favor of generate.
