I have a Symfony 4 project and am trying to install this package for working with AWS DynamoDB.
When I run composer require oasis/dynamodb-odm
I get an error saying oasis/dynamodb-odm v0.5.3 requires symfony/console ^3.2 -> no matching package found
. Attempting to run composer require symfony/console:^3.2
also results in the "Could not find package..." error.
As I am using Symfony 4, composer commands are intercepted by Symfony Flex and some extra stuff happens. Interestingly, there is a Flex recipe for symfony/console:3.3 but not 3.2 which I imagine might be the problem.
My understanding of the caret is that it should allow minor version bumps, so I wonder why console v3.3 is not installed instead.
I would like to use this package, and there aren't many DynamoDB PHP offerings out there, so how can I resolve this issue?
if you checkout the composer.json file of the package, you can see the following
"require" : {
"php" : ">=5.6",
"doctrine/annotations": "^1.4",
"oasis/aws-wrappers" : "^2.10",
"oasis/logging" : "^1.0",
"doctrine/common" : "^2.7",
"symfony/console" : "^3.2",
"symfony/finder" : "^3.2"
},
meaning it is compatible with symfony3 only.
Probably you can fork the repo and try changing the version numbers and test it. If it works you can install it.
