Please provide a PHAR

[ScreamingDev]

This tool is nice but it breaks projects which depend on stable releases.

I have some requirements in the composer.json. To add php-semver-checker I need to enable the minimum-stability of "dev" versions. When composer installs it fetches dev-versions of all requirements.

This breaks the application and dev can never be trusted or rolled out for end-users.

So please provide a downloadable PHAR-File containing your tool. Many people like to use it as I see.

You can also just install it globally.
Which make sense as it is a tool to work on any of your project.
It doesn't add a feature to yours.

$ composer global require tomzx/php-semver-checker

The current issue with building a phar is deploying/hosting it. For the moment it is simpler for me to have people install it in a directory using composer (See Getting Started).

At one point in the not so distant future, I will look into building/release .phar builds.

@tomzx You could attach the phar files to the matching tags on the releases page.

[tomzx]

@xabbuh Sounds reasonable. I'll add it to the top of my task queue then.

Alright, I've published a .phar for v0.1.0 and v0.2.0.

I'll submit .phar files on every new release.

Thanks for the help!

@tomzx looks like there was no phar release since 0.6.3

The latest phars can be found @ http://psvc.coreteks.org/.

@tomzx thanks! but it would be nicer to have them on the release page. tools like phive would then be able to install the phar.
