Version 10.0 of Yii View package was released.

Changed logic of template file searching in ViewInterface::render():

• the absolute path to the view file, e.g. "/path/to/view.php";
• the name of the view starting with // to join the base path, e.g. "//site/index";
• the name of the view starting with ./ to join the directory containing the view currently being rendered (i.e., this happens when rendering a view within another view), e.g. "./widget";
• the name of the view without the starting // or ./ (e.g. "site/index"), so view file will be looked for under the view path of the context set via withContext() (if the context instance was not set withContext(), it will be looked for under the base path).

Removed ViewInterface::renderFile().

Changed exception from RuntimeException to LogicException when the view cannot be resolved in ViewInterface::render().

Major version of Yii View Renderer were tagged.

In this version package renamed from yiisoft/yii-view to yiisoft/yii-view-renderer and made several changes:

• only a full path can now be used as a layout;
• changed package configuration parameters viewPath and layout to null;
• refactored controller name extractor, now use greedy search of namespace items with "controller(s)" postfix.

See upgrading instructions with notes about upgrading package in your application to this major version.

    ],    
);

$requirementsChecker->render();
exit($result['summary']['errors'] === 0 ? 0 : 1);

One more package has been released. This time it's a wrapper around Cycle ORM for Yii ecosystem. Cycle is known for support both classic and daemonized PHP applications based for example on RoadRunner.

The package offers a set of console commands and tools for convinient work with DB migrations and schema.

Right before the release the decision was taken to move the part related with Yii Data adaptation to a separate package - Yii Data Cycle, similar to Yii Data DB. All of them will be released too soon enough. First Yii Data 2.0, then first releases of adapter packages will follow.

Just a reminder, using Yii Cycle in demo doesn't mean it's a recommended tool / default package for working with DB. You can also choose Yii DB for example.

Code coverage with tests, mutational index and static analysis level were increased to their maximum.
