A Week of Symfony #892 (29 January - 4 February 2024)

February 4, 2024 · Published by Avatar of Javier Eguiluz Javier Eguiluz

This week, Symfony 5.4.35, 6.3.12, 6.4.3 and 7.0.3 maintenance versions were released. The 6.3.12 version is the last one in that branch, so you should consider upgrading to Symfony 6.4 or higher soon. Meanwhile, the development activity was very intense and focused on adding new features to the upcoming Symfony 7.1 version, including a new TypeInfo component. Finally, we published a blog post about our experience upgrading websites to AssetMapper.

Symfony CLI

Symfony CLI is a must-have tool when developing Symfony applications on your local machine. It includes the Symfony Local Server, the best way to run local Symfony applications. This week Symfony CLI released its new 5.8.5 and 5.8.6 versions with the following changes:

  • Make sure Doctrine configuration takes precedence over Platform.sh configuration (@fabpot)
  • Add DB versions to Doctrine config when using Docker locally (@fabpot)
  • Fix Doctrine URLs (do not encode to avoid having %xxx% that would be seen as parameter name to replace by Symfony DI) (@fabpot)
