Yii3 Roadmap

Last updated: 24.12.2024

The Yii3 release is approaching, and the team is working hard to complete the final steps 💪.

At the heart of Yii3 are its packages, which form the foundation of the framework. So far, 105 packages have been released, and the remaining ones are already 80-90% complete. But Yii3 is more than just its set of packages. It also includes great documentation and ready-to-use application templates. Completing these elements is a key part of preparing for the final release.

You can support the Yii3 team and help accelerate the release by making a donation. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps us move closer to delivering Yii3:

Working with ansible-vault

I've been using a lot of Ansible lately and while almost everything has been great, finding a clean way to implement ansible-vault wasn't immediately apparent.

What I decided on was the following: put your secret information into a vars file, reference that vars file from your task, and encrypt the whole vars file using ansible-vault encrypt.

Let's use an example: You're writing an Ansible role and want to encrypt the spoiler for the movie Aliens.

	#!/usr/bin/php
	<?php

	require __DIR__ . '/../../vendor/autoload.php';
