Problem

The bundle cannot be installed alongside API Platform 5: api-platform/symfony is constrained to ^3.4 || ^4.0, so Composer refuses to resolve a project that requires api-platform/core:^5.0.

Changes

• Widen api-platform/symfony (and the dev requirement api-platform/core) to ^3.4 || ^4.0 || ^5.0. No source changes were needed.
• Add symfony/http-client as a dev requirement. With API Platform 5.0.2 the functional test kernel fails to compile without it: TestClientPass loads ApiPlatform\Symfony\Bundle\Test\Client, which uses HttpClientTrait (Error: Trait "Symfony\Component\HttpClient\HttpClientTrait" not found, 7 tests in ConfigurationTest).
• Update the supported-versions table in the README and add a line to the Unreleased section of the changelog.

Verification

Run locally:

• API Platform 5.0.3, highest (Symfony 8.1.8, Doctrine ORM 3.7.4, DoctrineBundle 3.3.2), on PHP 8.4.25 and 8.5.10:
  • bin/phpunit: 100 tests, 209 assertions, OK
  • bin/phpstan analyse: no errors
  • bin/php-cs-fixer check: nothing to fix
  • composer validate --strict: valid
• API Platform 4.4.3 (composer update --with api-platform/core:^4.0), on PHP 8.5.10:
  • bin/phpunit: 100 tests, 209 assertions, OK
• The PHP 8.2 / --prefer-lowest --prefer-stable job, on PHP 8.2.34 (php:8.2-cli container). This resolves to API Platform 4.1.30 (Symfony 6.4.0, Doctrine ORM 3.0.0, DoctrineBundle 2.13.0):
  • bin/phpunit: 100 tests, 209 assertions, OK
  • composer validate --strict: valid
• API Platform 3.4.0 (composer update --prefer-lowest --prefer-stable --no-security-blocking --with api-platform/core:^3.4), on PHP 8.2.34:
  • bin/phpunit: 100 tests, 209 assertions, OK

Note on the lowest job: it does not install API Platform 3.4. Composer blocks every 3.4 release because of security advisories, so --prefer-lowest falls back to 4.1.30. API Platform 3.4 is only reachable with --no-security-blocking, which is how the last run above was done.

@mwansinck Thank you for the PR, this looks good.

One request before merge: with this change the highest CI jobs resolve API Platform 5, so 4.2–4.4 lose CI coverage (lowest stays on 4.1.30). Could you add a matrix job pinned to 4.4, for example composer require --dev --no-update api-platform/core:^4.4 before the install step?

[mwansinck]

Thanks! Added a PHP 8.5 highest (API Platform ^4.4) job that runs composer require --dev --no-update api-platform/core:^4.4 before installing. api-platform is listed in the matrix with an empty default; without it GitHub would merge the include into the existing PHP 8.5 highest job instead of adding a new one. Locally it resolves to API Platform 4.4.6 (Symfony 8.1.10) on PHP 8.5.12: 100 tests, OK.
