Support latest version of graphp/graph

[jrmgx]

The https://github.com/graphp/graph package has a version 0.9 and 1.x, and they seem incompatible with the latest version of this one (graphp/algorithms)

Is there a plan?

What is the recommended way to go?

Thank you

Hey @jrmgx, thanks for bringing this up 👍

I took a closer look at this and yes, the current version of graphp/algorithms is not compatible with the latest version of graphp/graph. We never opened a specific ticket for this (so good that this is being addressed).

The installation for graphp/graph library was locked in a specific commit in #41. This library went through some massive changes afterwards, which we're currently not compatible with. The Algorithms API itself also needs some major remodeling, as @clue described in #5 and other tickets.

As you can see, creating compatibility involves a good amount of work and we'll have a look at this when time allows it (currently working a lot on ReactPHP and Framework X). We're always happy about contributions for this, but I don't think this will be an easy pick as it involves API changes, test improvements, documentation changes, etc. (still happy if someone wants to give it a try).

If you need compatibility with the latest version of graphp/graph urgently, you can always reach out to us or help us prioritizing by becoming a sponsor ❤️

Hope this gives some insights 👍
