Closes #176. Do not merge before #175 — see Merge Danger.

Summary

PHPStan ^1.12 → ^2.2 in all three analysed projects, and the 21 findings the newer analyser surfaces are corrected rather than recorded in a baseline.

Twelve of the 21 share one cause. get_object_vars() is typed array<array-key, mixed>, because a numeric property name comes back as an integer key — so toArray() and toPatchArray() never actually delivered the array<string, mixed> they promised:

 toArray()
   get_object_vars($this)          # array<array-key, mixed>
   foreach as $key => $value
-    $result[$key] = ...           # array<array-key, mixed> leaks out
+    $result[(string) $key] = ...  # declared array<string, mixed> now holds

The decoded-body contract was wrong in the other direction — too narrow. Zammad answers search endpoints with a top-level JSON array, which decodes to integer keys, and ResponseParser has handled that shape all along:

 RequestHandlerInterface::get()/post()/put()/delete()/request()
-  @return array<string, mixed>        # untrue for list responses
+  @return array<array-key, mixed>     # what they have always returned

 ResponseParser
   extractItems()
+  fields()   # narrows a body where a single resource is expected

That widening is what the 19 call-site changes in AbstractRepository, Resource, HttpPageFetcher and the endpoint repositories follow from: each one now states explicitly that it expects an object, instead of assuming it.

Two smaller items ride along. Header values from $options['headers'] reached PSR-7's withHeader() unchecked, so a non-string value surfaced as an exception raised from inside the transport layer rather than naming the caller's own input; scalars are now coerced and arrays mapped element-wise. And getContainerExtension() narrows its return from ?ExtensionInterface to ExtensionInterface — a covariant override, verified against all four supported Symfony branches.

Evidence

Before — on test/rr/169/framework-bridge-coverage, with PHPStan 2.3.4 and the configurations this project actually runs:

Root (phpstan.neon.dist)        21 errors
  return.type 15, argument.type 3, function.alreadyNarrowedType 2, notIdentical.alwaysTrue 1
test/Bridge/Symfony              1 error   (return.unusedType)
test/Bridge/Laravel              0 errors

After — same configurations, no baseline file:

Root (phpstan.neon.dist)         [OK] No errors
test/Bridge/Symfony              [OK] No errors
test/Bridge/Laravel              [OK] No errors

make test
  OK (344 tests, 765 assertions)   root unit suite
  OK (10 tests, 31 assertions)     Symfony bridge
  OK (13 tests, 26 assertions)     Laravel bridge

CI is green across all 11 jobs, including Symfony ^6.4, ~7.0.0, ^7.4, ^8.0 and Laravel ^12.0, ^13.0. The covariant return narrowing was run against each Symfony leg separately, since the parent Bundle signature differs by version.

Not included on purpose: test/Unit and test/Integration are not under analysis at all — phpstan.neon.dist sets paths: [src/] — and the version bump does not change that either way. Measured, they would be 257 findings at level max and 136 at level 4. That is its own piece of work, recorded as the open question on #176.

Merge Danger

Door: two-way for the tooling, one-way in effect for two documented contracts.

Reverting the commits restores the previous state cleanly; nothing is destructive and no data is touched. But both breaking changes are already in CHANGELOG.md, so a revert after release would mean retracting published statements rather than just reverting code.

Blast Radius: consumers.

Two behaviours change for people who depend on this library:

  • RequestHandlerInterface's decoded-body returns are documented as array<array-key, mixed>. There is no signature or runtime change — only consumers who run static analysis against these methods and relied on the narrower declaration will see new findings in their own code. The narrower declaration was never true for search endpoints.
  • PaginatedList::offsetGet() and offsetExists() no longer swallow a non-integer offset. $list['some-string'] now raises a TypeError where it previously returned null / false. The class declares ArrayAccess<int, T>, so this was never part of the contract, but code relying on the silent behaviour will now fail loudly.

Within the library itself the risk is low: the 19 call sites are covered by the existing 344 unit tests, which pass unchanged, and the integration job against a live Zammad is green.

Ordering: this branch contains the 13 commits of #175 as ancestors, and test/Bridge/Symfony/composer.json and test/Bridge/Laravel/composer.json do not exist without it. It therefore targets test/rr/169/framework-bridge-coverage rather than develop, and is a draft so it cannot be merged by accident. Once #175 is merged and its branch deleted, GitHub retargets this PR to develop on its own. If #175 is squash-merged instead, the ancestry is rewritten and this branch needs rebasing first:

git fetch origin
git rebase --onto origin/develop b108461 maintenance/rr/176/phpstan-2
git push --force-with-lease origin maintenance/rr/176/phpstan-2

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved handling of API responses with numeric or non-string field names, including during resource updates, imports, searches, and list hydration.
    • Request headers now convert supported values to strings, including individual array elements.
    • Non-integer pagination offsets now proceed through the usual lookup logic and may result in a TypeError.
    • Serialization now uses string keys for fields and omits null values from plain-array and object patch requests.
  • Documentation
    • Updated the changelog with these behavior changes and clarified the types of decoded request bodies.

Walkthrough

The changes update PHPStan to version ^2.2 in the root and both bridge projects. They adjust array-key annotations and string-cast keys in serialized, patch, and API response data. Request dispatch now converts supported header values to strings and processes set body options even when their value is null. PaginatedList no longer guards against non-integer offsets.

  • zammad/zammad-api-client-php#169 — The changes update the Symfony bridge return type and the PHPStan version used by bridge analysis. The supplied context does not establish that this PR changes which bridge files the root analysis checks or addresses the issue’s testing tasks.

Merge Risk: Low · previous review bf178

Analyzer versions can drift, while invalid offsets and headers may be handled differently than expected. These risks are bounded but should be addressed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Explanation

The PR addresses the coding requirements in #176. It updates phpstan/phpstan from ^1.12 to ^2.2 in the root, Symfony bridge, and Laravel bridge projects. The reported level-max analyses have zero errors, and no baseline is added. The source fixes cover string-keyed serialization, response-shape annotations and narrowing, header-value handling, unreachable PaginatedList guards, and the Symfony covariant return type. The PR reports unchanged test suites passing.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes stay within #176. The CHANGELOG.md entries document the public effects of the type and guard corrections. ResponseParser normalization, repository call-site updates, header coercion, and bridge signature changes support the reported PHPStan findings and contract corrections. The PR does not add the explicitly excluded test/Unit or test/Integration paths to analysis.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 100.00% which is sufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 14 functions across 14 files. (4 skipped: 4 unsupported.)

Outside diff Enforce integer offsets before the arithmetic.

64-69: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Enforce integer offsets before the arithmetic.

offsetGet() and offsetExists() can coerce numeric-string and float offsets. This violates the documented TypeError behavior and can return or report an item for an offset that is not an integer. Add runtime enforcement in both methods, using an implementation that remains valid under PHPStan 2.x level max; neither a direct is_int() check nor the proposed get_debug_type() comparison is valid with the current ArrayAccess<int, T> annotation.
