Changelog for Version 6.0

Version 6.0 represents a major update to the MailWrapper library, focusing on improved type safety, modern PHP standards, and enhanced null-safety checks. This release includes several breaking changes that require attention when upgrading from version 5.x.

New Features​

Enhanced Type Safety​

  • Added comprehensive type declarations throughout the codebase, including parameter types, return types, and property types
  • Introduced PHPDoc annotations with generic types (e.g., @var array<string, class-string<MailWrapperInterface>>)
  • Added #[\Override] attributes to ensure proper method inheritance

Improved Null Safety​

  • Refactored mail wrappers with null-coalescing operators for safer null handling
  • Enhanced null-safety checks in PHPMailerWrapper, AmazonSesWrapper, and MailgunApiWrapper
  • Improved handling of optional URI components (username, password, host, port, scheme)

Documentation Improvements​

  • Comprehensive Docusaurus-compatible documentation structure
  • New detailed documentation pages:
    • Getting Started guide
    • Envelope configuration guide
    • Connection Strings reference
    • Mailer Factory usage
    • Attachments handling
    • Custom Wrappers implementation
    • Exception handling guide

Testing & CI Enhancements​

  • Updated PHPUnit configuration with improved structure and container options
  • Enhanced GitHub Actions workflow configuration
  • Added composer test and composer psalm scripts for easier development workflow

Breaking Changes​

byjg/webrequest^5.0^6.0Dependency upgraded to major version 6
PHPUnit^9.6^10.5|^11.5Dev dependency upgraded to PHPUnit 10 or 11
Psalm^5.9^5.9|^6.13Dev dependency supports Psalm 6
Test Files*WrapperTest.php*TestWrapper.phpTest class files renamed from suffix pattern
MailerFactory::create()string $connectionUriInterface|string $connectionNow accepts PSR-7 UriInterface in addition to string
MailerFactory::registerMailer()No return typevoid return typeExplicit void return type added
Type StrictnessRelaxed null handlingStrict null-safetyAll wrapper methods now use null-safe operators (?->) and null coalescing (??)

Additional API Changes​

  • MailerFactory::registerMailer(): Parameter now properly typed as class-string<MailWrapperInterface>
  • PHPMailerWrapper: URI property access now uses null-safe operators throughout
  • Envelope: Minor adjustments for stricter type checking
  • Test namespace: Test classes use proper PSR-4 autoloading with Tests\ namespace

Path to Upgrade from 5.x to 6.0​

Step 1: Check PHP Version​

Ensure your environment is running PHP 8.3 or higher:

php --version

If you're running PHP 8.1 or 8.2, you must upgrade to PHP 8.3+ before upgrading to MailWrapper 6.0.

Step 2: Update Dependencies​

Update your composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "byjg/mailwrapper": "^6.0"
    }
}

Then run:

composer update byjg/mailwrapper

This will automatically update the required dependencies (byjg/convert and byjg/webrequest to version 6).

Step 3: Update Dev Dependencies (if applicable)​

If you have PHPUnit or Psalm in your project:

composer update phpunit/phpunit vimeo/psalm --with-dependencies

Step 4: Review Custom Implementations​

If you have custom mail wrappers that implement MailWrapperInterface:

  1. Add proper type declarations to all methods
  2. Add #[\Override] attribute to interface methods
  3. Ensure null-safety in URI handling: 
    // Before
    $host = $this->uri->getHost();

    // After
    $host = $this->uri?->getHost() ?? 'default-host';

Step 5: Update MailerFactory Usage (Optional)​

If you pass URI objects to MailerFactory::create(), ensure they implement Psr\Http\Message\UriInterface:

use ByJG\Util\Uri;
use ByJG\Mail\MailerFactory;

// Both styles now work:
$mailer1 = MailerFactory::create('smtp://user:[email protected]');
$mailer2 = MailerFactory::create(new Uri('smtp://user:[email protected]'));

Step 6: Run Tests​

After upgrading, run your test suite to ensure compatibility:

vendor/bin/phpunit

If you use Psalm:

vendor/bin/psalm

Step 7: Update Test Files (if extending MailWrapper tests)​

If your project extends any MailWrapper test classes, note the renamed files:

  • BaseWrapperTest.php → BaseTestWrapper.php
  • PHPMailerWrapperTest.php → PHPMailerTestWrapper.php
  • AmazonSesWrapperTest.php → AmazonSesTestWrapper.php
  • MailgunWrapperTest.php → MailgunTestWrapper.php
  • FakeSenderWrapperTest.php → FakeSenderTestWrapper.php

Bug Fixes​

  • Fixed Psalm-related type issues for improved static analysis
  • Improved null-safety checks preventing potential null pointer exceptions
  • Enhanced SMTP authentication handling with proper null checks
  • Fixed potential issues with missing URI components in wrapper configurations

Notes​

  • All existing connection string formats remain compatible
  • No changes to the public API for Envelope class usage
  • Wrapper registration and usage patterns remain the same
  • Documentation now available in comprehensive Docusaurus format
