Raw

Warning: Main roadmap was moved to https://github.com/yiisoft/docs/blob/master/003-roadmap.md.

These are main plans that are additional to open issues.

3.0

Re-structure

Documentation

  • Prepare upgrading instructions.
  • Separate changes description from upgrading instructions?
  • Update guide and docs to reflect DI container changes.

Build & Release

  • Mark conflicting all packages that require it. See #16
  • Make sure all official extensions have releases for 3.0.0.
  • Fix tests in all packages.
  • Setup general package maintenance (php-cs-fixer, phpstan, ...) with hidev.
  • Setup automatic builds (travis, scrutinizer, ...) for all packages.

Cleanup

  • Remove all @since annotations
  • See if more PHP 7.1 features could be used and more compatibility hacks removed.
  • Cleanup ErrorHandler.
  • Split IdentityInterface.
  • Use dependency injection properly. Make sure container is not passed around and static variables aren't used.
  • Decouple components as much as possible.
  • Use type-hinting everywhere.
  • Increase type strictness.

Architecture

  • Revise application lifecycle.
  • PSR-15 compatible middleware.
  • Prefer throwing exceptions to fixing input.
  • Make sure error handler catches fatals and is using response.

i18n

  • Use kebab-case instead of snake (- instead of _) for view files, message files etc. See #8057

Extensions

  • Remove all widgets that doing things that could be done simpler via plain HTML.

Less Dependencies

4.0 (2018)

  • Announce LTS.
  • PHP 7 strict scalar types everywhere.
  • Decouple routing from controllers and modules. Allow specifying any class method as a callback for a matching route.
  • Merge components and DI container configs.
  • Try to eliminate Object and Component turning these into traits. Could extract AccessorTrait, EventTrait etc. Alternatively we can drop accessors. Will get PSR-2 and stricter interfaces in exchange additionally to possibility to get more performance.
  • When triggering events, pass data as a separate argument instead of a part of event object (commonly referred to as inconvenient).
  • Move methods from Yii class into helpers. For example, Yii::getAlias() could be FileHelper::getAlias().
  • Use HTML-5 data attributes to specify validation rules + global validation script that doesn't require additional config.
  • Implement change() for migrations.
