How to upgrade Cypht within Tiki via Composer

Cypht Webmail is included in Tiki.

Trunk/master (future Tiki24)

Tiki trunk periodically gets latest code from upstream Cypht. This permits to find and fix issues upstream.

How to update:

1. Get latest Tiki code
2. Run from Tiki root directory

   ./temp/composer.phar update --prefer-dist --working-dir="vendor_bundled" --no-dev

   • This will modify vendor_bundled/composer.lock and perhaps lib/cypht/site.js and lib/cypht/site.css
3. Review changes and commit

For Tiki23, our strategy is normally to use the stable branch, but if there is an important bug fix in master, we use that but we lock to a specific revision.

1. Get latest Tiki code
2. Update vendor_bundled/composer.json with get the desired revision
   • Something like

     "jason-munro/cypht": "dev-master#40738ec",

     where you get ID from https://github.com/jasonmunro/cypht/commits/master
3. Run from Tiki root directory

   ./temp/composer.phar update --prefer-dist --working-dir="vendor_bundled" --no-dev

   • This will modify vendor_bundled/composer.lock and perhaps lib/cypht/site.js and lib/cypht/site.css
4. Review changes and commit (along with changes to vendor_bundled/composer.json)

As of 2021-10-03, Tiki21 uses "jason-munro/cypht": ">=1.3.0", in https://gitlab.com/tikiwiki/tiki/-/blob/21.x/vendor_bundled/composer.json and we are working so that recent fixes are part of a stable release.
