v1.2.0-RC1

Bug fix and performance release

❗Not production ready - We reworked our code base and added typed parameters as well as return values. If you find anything, please drop us a comment. Further information can be found #468. Thank you in advance!❗

Highlights:

• massive code refactoring (thanks to @jee7, #440)

• Added cache for Documents object cache dictionary, which also results in better performance in some cases (thanks to @jee7, #434)

@j0k3r improved our test backend.

v1.1.0

Maintenance and small performance boost

PDFs with images can be parsed with less resource consumption (like memory) from now on. @Connum added a feature with #441 to ignore image data. It must be enabled manually though. You can do it easily:

use Smalot\PdfParser\Config;
use Smalot\PdfParser\Parser;

$config = new Config();
$config->setRetainImageContent(false);
$parser = new Parser([], $config);
// $parser->parseFile (...)

Besides that, we fixed a problem with Scrutinizer (part of our test infrastructure).
