Hi yii people,

is there a reason why yii2-imagine requires Imagine 0.5…* (july 2013) when there is a version 0.6.2 released in November 2014 ?

I’m having problem installing this extension : https://github.com/yii2mod/yii2-image because of versions.

Thanks for your help

yii2-imagine uses incompatible with 0.6.2 version method calls so it should be redeveloped for new imagine version.

As a workaround we use php composer.phar require imagine/imagine “0.6.2 as 0.5.1” (we aren’t using yii2-imagine methods except getImagine which works with 0.6.2 fine) and waiting for yii2-imagine update. Appropriate issue - github.com/yiisoft/yii2/issues/6014

you’re fast ;)

Yes, that is what I assumed. My problem is that my app is already making use of yii2-imagine …so I’m stuck unless I modify yii2-image to not use RGB() (for example).

I have no idea how can this be solved for now. I used 0.6.2 version for using new features like metadata extraction which are not available in 0.5 branch, so we can’t rollback dependency to the old one.

I understand.

No problem, I’ll wait an update on yii2-imagine …anyway, I like yii2-image. Good job !
