Xibo 1.8 GitHub

Developer Experience
1

Hello,

I have installed composer, and downloaded from GitHub the 1.8 series.
when running php composer.phar install it states

" Composer could not find a composer.json file in C:\xibobeta
To initialize a project, please create a composer.json file as described in the https://getcomposer.org/ “Getting Started” section "

can run " composer install " and it shows error :
" Loading composer repositories with package information
Installing dependencies (including require-dev) from lock file
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

Problem 1
- Installation request for react/zmq v0.3.0 -> satisfiable by react/zmq[v0.3.0].
- react/zmq v0.3.0 requires ext-zmq * -> the requested PHP extension zmq is missing from your system.
Problem 2
- react/zmq v0.3.0 requires ext-zmq * -> the requested PHP extension zmq is missing from your system.
- xibosignage/xibo-xmr dev-develop requires react/zmq ^0.3.0 -> satisfiable by react/zmq[v0.3.0].
- Installation request for xibosignage/xibo-xmr dev-develop -> satisfiable by xibosignage/xibo-xmr[dev-develop].

Any help is appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

LOL a zip file of the 1.8 series would have been handy, just sayin’

There is an official release :smile: https://github.com/xibosignage/xibo-cms/releases/tag/1.8.0-alpha

The error message means you need to install the ZeroMQ extension, not required in 1.8.0-alpha, but will be required for the alpha2 if you want to use the new push messaging - if not, no harm :smile:

Not many details as yet - it is to support the “event” part of Interactive Signage, a brief overview can be found here: https://github.com/dasgarner/xibo-manual/blob/develop/source/en/xmr.md
