Coming soon: Support for PHP 8

[bishopb]

PHP 8 introduces many new and exciting features. Some, like named arguments, are a big break from the past and aren't compatible with 7.x and earlier. These new features will help us deliver an even better library, so we're planning to use PHP 8 to its fullest.

Beginning on 2021-01-02, the master branch will begin receiving updates targeting PHP 8. Release candidates (v3.0.0-rc1 and so on) will begin flowing out in the following weeks. Watch here for any pertinent announcements.

We encourage early adopters to submit feedback! In particular, if there's something fundamental you want changed, now is the time to consider it. Use the Discussion tab to post your idea. All breaking changes considered!

Provisional support for PHP 8 has landed with #514. We'll be cutting a version 3.0 release candidate in the near future. Stay tuned!

We are pleased to announce the release of v3.0.0-RC1, which provides base line support for PHP 8!

If you would like to try this release candidate, you will need to update your composer.json to use an RC minimum stability:

{
    "name": "my/project",
    "type": "project",
    "minimum-stability": "RC",
    "require": {
        "rollbar/rollbar": "^3"
    }
}

We have a few more PHP 8 specific features to add to the v3 series, and also welcome your feedback!

We are pleased to announce the release of v3.0.0-RC2, which enhances the Rollbar API with strong type guarantees, improves interoperability with new PHP 8 features, and fixes a few bugs. Read the CHANGELOG for more detail.

If you would like to try this release candidate, you will need to update your composer.json to use an RC minimum stability:

{
    "name": "my/project",
    "type": "project",
    "minimum-stability": "RC",
    "require": {
