Summary

  • GitHub Actions CI replacing Travis CI — unit tests across PHP 8.1–8.4, integration tests against 6 backends (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, RabbitMQ, Beanstalkd)
  • Dependency modernization — Symfony ^6.4|^7.0|^8.0, Doctrine ORM 3/DBAL 4, PHPUnit 10+/11, php-amqplib v3, predis v2. Removed 7 dead dependencies.
  • Code fixes for Doctrine ORM 3, DBAL 4, php-amqplib v3, Symfony 7 — annotation→attribute drivers, EntityManager API changes, TreeBuilder cleanup, unsafe unserialize fixes
  • SELECT ... FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED for SQL job acquisition — auto-detected on MySQL 8.0+, PostgreSQL 9.5+, MariaDB 10.6+; optimistic fallback for SQLite and older databases. Handles NULL priority ordering across databases with COALESCE.
  • Multi-database ORM tests — MySQL, PostgreSQL (new), and SQLite (new, no services needed)

Breaking changes (v8.0)

  • Minimum Symfony 6.4 (dropped 4.x, 5.x)
  • Doctrine ORM ^2.14|^3.0, DBAL ^3.6|^4.0
  • php-amqplib ^3.0 (v2 dropped)
  • PHPUnit ^10.5|^11.0
  • Removed cocur/background-process from require (was unused)

Test results (local, all Docker services)

Backend Tests Result
MySQL 8.0 (SKIP LOCKED) 21 ✅ Pass
PostgreSQL 16 (SKIP LOCKED) 21 ✅ Pass
SQLite (optimistic fallback) 21 ✅ Pass
MongoDB ODM 24 ✅ Pass
Redis (Predis + PhpRedis) 55 ✅ Pass
RabbitMQ (php-amqplib 3) 18 ✅ Pass
Beanstalkd 28 ✅ Pass
Unit tests 88 ✅ Pass

Test plan

  • GitHub Actions CI passes (unit + integration)
  • Verify SKIP LOCKED path on MySQL 8.0 and PostgreSQL
  • Verify optimistic fallback on SQLite
  • Verify all 5 queue backends work
  • Tag as v8.0.0 after merge

Fix code for Doctrine ORM 3, DBAL 4, php-amqplib 3, and Symfony 7
e3cf0e6 
Doctrine ORM 3 / DBAL 4:
- Replace EntityManager::create() with DriverManager + new EntityManager
- Replace Setup::createAnnotationMetadataConfiguration with
  ORMSetup::createAttributeMetadataConfiguration
- Replace AnnotationDriver with AttributeDriver for MongoDB ODM
- Remove AnnotationRegistry calls (attributes need no registration)
- Fix flush($entity) to flush() (parameter removed in ORM 3)
- Fix findRefresh() to check contains() before refresh() for
  detached entities
- Cast MySQL port to int for DBAL 4 strict types
- Add array type to ContainerExtended::$methodMap for Symfony 7
- Use static::createObjectManager() instead of hardcoded class

php-amqplib v3:
- Replace $message->delivery_info['delivery_tag'] with
  $message->getDeliveryTag()

Symfony 7 cleanup:
- Remove TreeBuilder BC layers (method_exists getRootNode checks)
  from Configuration, RabbitMQConfiguration, RedisConfiguration
- Simplify setDeprecatedNode to always use 3-arg setDeprecated()
- Remove dead Symfony version detection in RunCommand
- Remove deprecated TwigEngine/TemplateNameParser/RouteCollectionBuilder
  from controller tests; use YamlFileLoader->load() directly

Security:
- Add allowed_classes parameter to unserialize() calls

Add SELECT FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED for SQL job acquisition
6ca9c6f 
Auto-detect platform support via DBAL's SelectSQLBuilder and use
the optimal strategy:

- MySQL 8.0+, PostgreSQL 9.5+, MariaDB 10.6+: SELECT ... FOR UPDATE
  SKIP LOCKED in a transaction - atomically acquires one unlocked job
  with zero contention under concurrent workers
- SQLite, older MySQL, DB2: Falls back to the existing optimistic
  UPDATE WHERE status='new' approach

Use COALESCE(priority, 0) in the SKIP LOCKED ORDER BY to handle NULL
priority values consistently across PostgreSQL (NULLs sort high in
DESC) and MySQL (NULLs sort low in DESC).

Fix CI failures: PHPUnit warning exit code and PruneCommand timing flake
74265b0 
- Add failOnWarning="false" to phpunit.xml.dist so abstract test class
  warnings don't cause a non-zero exit code in PHPUnit 10+
- Fix PruneCommandTest::testPruneOldRuns timing flake: the DateInterval
  diff between startDate and the command's internal "now minus 1 day"
  is microseconds short of a full day, so format('%a') truncates to 0.
  Use assertGreaterThanOrEqual/assertLessThanOrEqual range instead of
  strict assertEquals.

Fix CI failures: exclude abstract classes, handle deprecations, fix c…
d6e0019 
…ompat

- Exclude abstract test classes (BaseJobManagerTest, DoctrineJobManagerTest,
  BaseLiveJobGridSourceTest) from test suites so PHPUnit 10/11 doesn't
  warn about them (runner warnings cause exit code 1 in PHPUnit 10)
- Add failOnDeprecation="false" for PHPUnit 11 deprecation notices
- Fix ContainerExtended: set $methodMap in constructor instead of
  property declaration to work with both Symfony 6.4 (untyped) and
  Symfony 7 (typed array) Container parent class
- Fix PruneCommandTest timing flake: use range assertion for 1-day
  DateInterval that can truncate to 0 due to microsecond timing

Add symfony/var-exporter for Doctrine ORM 3 proxy support on PHP 8.4
b8828f0 
Doctrine ORM 3 requires symfony/var-exporter (LazyGhost) for proxy
generation. Without it, PHP 8.4 unit tests fail with
"Symfony LazyGhost is not available" when creating the EntityManager.

Enable PHP 8.4 native lazy objects for Doctrine ORM proxy generation
b839803 
On PHP 8.4 with Symfony 8, symfony/var-exporter removed LazyGhost
which Doctrine ORM 3.6 uses for proxy generation. Enable Doctrine's
native lazy object support (PHP 8.4's ReflectionClass::newLazyGhost)
when available, avoiding the dependency on var-exporter's LazyGhost.
