Remove Abandoned Laminas Packages and Suggest Alternatives

[nynka]

This PR removes the abandoned Laminas packages (laminas-db, laminas-mail, laminas-log) from the project and suggests replacing them with other alternatives such as monolog/monolog and symfony/mailer. Users of the package can select any logger implementation based on psr/log and use Monolog handlers to get email functionality based on Symfony Mailer instead of relying on the Laminas packages.

Changes:

1. Remove Laminas Packages:

   • Removed laminas-db, laminas-mail, and laminas-log from composer.json.

2. Update Configuration:

   • Updated the configuration files to use monolog/monolog and symfony/mailer.

3. Instructions for Users:

   • Add instructions for users to select any logger implementation based on psr/log and use Monolog handlers for email functionality.

Detailed Changes:

1. composer.json:

   {
       "require": {
           "php": "~8.2.0 || ~8.3.0 || ~8.4.0",
           "laminas/laminas-diactoros": "^2.26 || ^3.5.0",
           "psr/log": "^1.1 || ^2.0",
       },
      "require-dev": {
          "doctrine/doctrine-orm-module": "^4.2.1 || ^5.3 || ^6.0",
          "laminas/laminas-coding-standard": "^3.0",
          "laminas/laminas-servicemanager": "^3.23 || ^4.0",
          "monolog/monolog": "^3.9",
          "symfony/mailer": "^7.2"
      },
      "suggest": {
          "monolog/monolog": "Sends your logs to files, sockets, inboxes, databases and various web services",
          "symfony/mailer": "Symfony's Mailer & Mime components form a powerful system for creating and sending emails"
    },
   }

2. php/ErrorHeroModule/config/module.config.php:

   use Monolog\Logger;
   use Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler;
   use Psr\Log\LoggerInterface;
   
   return [
       'service_manager' => [
           'factories' => [
               'ErrorHeroModuleLogger' => function (): LoggerInterface {
                   $logger = new Logger('error-hero-module');
                   $logger->pushHandler(new StreamHandler('path/to/your.log', Logger::DEBUG));
                   return $logger;
               },
           ],
       ],
   ];

3. Instructions for Users:

   • To use different logger implementations, ensure it implements psr/log.
   • For email functionality, configure Monolog handlers with Symfony Mailer:

     use Monolog\Logger;
     use Monolog\Handler\SymfonyMailerHandler;
     use Symfony\Component\Mailer\Mailer;
     use Symfony\Component\Mailer\Transport;
     use Symfony\Component\Mime\Email;
     
     $transport = Transport::fromDsn('smtp://localhost');
     $mailer = new Mailer($transport);
     $message = (new Email())
         ->from('sender@example.com')
         ->to('recipient@example.com')
         ->subject('Error Notification')
         ->text('An error occurred.');
     
     $logger = new Logger('error-hero-module');
     $logger->pushHandler(new SymfonyMailerHandler($mailer, $message, Logger::ERROR));

Testing:

• Ensure the application works correctly with the new logger and mailer configurations.
• Verify that error logging and email notifications function as expected.

Note:

• Users should update their composer.json and configuration files accordingly.
• Detailed documentation on configuring Monolog and Symfony Mailer can be found in their respective documentation.

Closing:
This PR aims to modernize the package by removing dependencies on abandoned Laminas packages and providing more flexible and widely-used alternatives and support the latest versions of PHP. It also reduces the complexity of the package itself.

@samsonasik It seems logical to allow the user to choose their preferred logger implementation and then utilize the writers/handlers for notifications specific to that package?

[samsonasik]

If that cause extra step, eg: require symfony/* lib, that probably not preferable, except we add option in command line to choose which lib to use, like mezzio-skeleton https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1011217/90332191-55d32200-dfbb-11ea-80c0-27a07ef5691a.png
