Exploring Future Directions for the SDK

[stobrien89]

Describe the issue

Hello Everyone,

We’re excited to announce we are currently exploring potential updates and improvements for the AWS SDK for PHP.

We Need Your Feedback!

Below we’ve listed a few of the most commonly requested features in separate comments (Modularization, Async/IO functionality, etc.). Please react with a 👍 to the features you would like to see in a major update to the SDK, or any other feedback, suggestions, etc. you would like to highlight. If there is something specific you’d like to see, please comment on this issue with your ideas or suggestions. They can include, but are not limited to:

• API Changes: Are there any APIs or patterns in the current SDK that you find confusing or cumbersome? What would you change?
• Workflows: Are there any new pieces of functionality you'd like to see? Are there any that you rely on and would like to remain consistent?
• Error Handling & Debugging: How can we improve error handling, logging, or debugging tools within the SDK?
• Framework Compatibility: Are there frameworks for which you’d like to see integrated (i.e. native) SDK support?
• New Language Features: Are there any recent PHP language features you would like us to incorporate in the SDK?
• Performance Improvements: Are there areas where you feel the SDK could be optimized for better performance?
• Other Suggestions: Any other ideas or pain points that you would like us to consider?

Next Steps:

Your input will play a key role in shaping the direction we take. We will collect your feedback over the next month and evaluate which updates to prioritize.

Modularization/Submodules

[stobrien89]

Async/IO

[stobrien89]

Encapsulation/Type Safety/IDE discoverability

I would like to stress out that we appreciate the stability and the retro-compatibility.

For example supporting a wide range of PHP versions and keeping a single major version as much as possible over time, this is very important for us in the long run.

Updating this package with composer fail regularly cause of timeout. Is there already a solution for that ?

Hi @mcharnayprimeo, thanks for commenting here. Could you please open a new issue and provide more details about what exactly you get?, which one is the error, etc. so we can better look into that problem?

Thanks!

There are 2 things to consider:

1. Modularization, so we can install only the required client.
2. Making it easier to mock the client for tests.

Please take a look at https://github.com/async-aws/aws. It's really easy to test the library by simply mocking the HTTP client.

Hello, Thanks a lot for your time. I will see to test your suggestions. Have a good day Marlene
