[Mahara-contributors] [Bug 1622788] Re: Update the dependencies error for ssphp
On further research, since we are downloading the release tarball we do *not* need to run "composer --update". The .tar.gz file that we download is built using the bin/build- release.sh script in the simplesamlphp git repo: https://github.com/simplesamlphp/simplesamlphp/blob/f5ff7c4643b9b784957f5e1fbf86fc740cd6b78a/bin /build-release.sh The build script clones a new repo based on the tag for the release. Then it runs "composer install" to get all the basic simplesamlphp dependencies, *and* "composer require" to install a big list of optional plugins. "composer require" does two things. It downloads the actual packages and their dependency files to the specified location, and it updates the composer.json file. So that means that, indeed, the tarball actually does contain all its PHP files already. So we can skip running "composer update" after upgrading it. The SimpleSAMLPHP OpenID plugins are the only ones that need GMP. So we can change the listing for that to an optional depedency, only required if you want to use SimpleSAMLPHP as an OpenID IdP consumer. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

[Mahara-contributors] [Bug 1622788] Re: Update the dependencies error for ssphp
Whoops, half-sentence in the above comment. The htdocs/auth/saml/extlib/simplesamlphp/composer.json file comes from the SimpleSamlPHP release tarball that we download. We're sort of using a semi-composer method for managing SimpleSAMLPHP. We're not managing it as a proper composer dependency (in which case we'd just have "simplesamlphp" in our root-level composer.json file and do "composer --install"). Instead we download a specific release tarball, unzip it, and run composer --update against it. Do we actually need to do that? I would have thought that the whole point of downloading a release tarball, is that we don't need to run any composer commands afterward? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

[Mahara-contributors] [Bug 1622788] Re: Update the dependencies error for ssphp
Okay, it looks like these dependencies come from when we run composer --update against the composer.json file at htdocs/auth/saml/extlib/simplesamlphp/composer.json. This file, (I think) comes from One thing we can do is change the Makefile line to add "--no-dev". That will remove the "development-only" dependencies including sqlite. Since we're not doing development *on* SimpleSAMLPHP, we don't need the dev dependencies. The need for GMP comes from openid/php-openid. That's not present in the composer.json from the SimpleSAMLPHP git repository, so it seems to be added by their build process. There is a build script in their repo, so maybe I'll check and see if I can figure out if it's fiddling with the composer.json. May be it's flattening the dependencies list or something, or aggregating multiple composer.json files in different directories? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

[Mahara-contributors] [Bug 1622788] Re: Update the dependencies error for ssphp
Here's the list of SimpleSAML php depedencies from their manual: https://simplesamlphp.org/docs/stable/simplesamlphp-install#section_3 Some webserver capable of executing PHP scripts. PHP version >= 5.3.0. Support for the following PHP extensions: Always required: date, dom, hash, libxml, openssl, pcre, SPL, zlib When using encryption or digital signatures: mcrypt When authenticating against LDAP server: ldap When authenticating against RADIUS server: radius When saving session information to memcache-server: memcache When using database: Always: PDO Database driver: (mysql, pgsql, ...) Because we're not using it as an identity provider, we don't need ldap or radius. We're currently using memcache as the session provider, so that's the "memcache" dependency. We're not using the database for sessions or IdP, so we don't need any of the DB libraries (including sqlite). Although it might be a good idea to switch our simplesamlphp setup to use the DB for sessions instead of memcache, in order to reduce the number of dependencies? Or maybe to detect whether the Mahara site itself is using standard PHP sessions, or memcache sessions. I think Piers believed there was some kind of conflict with using PHP sessions, but I'm not sure if that was only a problem if you were doing it in a multi-hosted environment, or if it just didn't work at all... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

That list may be incomplete, though, because it doesn't mention the GMP (GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library) at all.
