Roadmap

Overview

This is a high level roadmap predominantly for v6, v7 and v8.

In particular this is in relation to the introduction of the new Spec attributes and processing pipeline and what may/will happen when.

Timeline

v6

6.5.0 saw the introduction of the new Spec system. Right now this is considered not yet production ready. The remainder of v6 will be defined by improving and completing the new system.

v7

This is where things will start to turn:

• Default mode will switch to hybrid - this means existing classic projects should keep working via the bridge (probably with the exception of NelmioApiDocBundle, as that relies on a lot of actual classic features), although they will be routed through the new spec pipeline via a custom bridge.
• All classic code - annotations + attributes and related pipeline code will be marked deprecated
• All code marked depecated in v6 will be removed
• Bridge is marked deprecated
• Builder::setMode() is marked deprecated

v8

classic is removed from the codebase, leaving only the spec pipeline. Annotations are no longer supported at all.
