Api-platform: PHP7: behatch/contexts dev-master requires php ~5.4 -> your PHP version (7.1.0RC3) does not satisfy that requirement.

I've simply run

MacBook-Pro-di-Aerendir:_Tests Aerendir$ composer create-project api-platform/api-platform api-platform
Installing api-platform/api-platform (v1.0.0)

  Problem 1
    - Installation request for behatch/contexts dev-master -> satisfiable by behatch/contexts[dev-master].
    - behatch/contexts dev-master requires php ~5.4 -> your PHP version (7.1.0RC3) does not satisfy that requirement.

I've tried the Docker version and all worked well, but, as I have never used Docker before and as I had some issue (for example, configuring the right PHP version in PHPStorm - too complex for the moment for me) I opted for the pure composer installation.

But this is the error I receive. Are you aware of this? How can I solve the problem without touching the source code yet before I start?

You need to install the v2 for PHP7:

composer create-project api-platform/api-platform=v2.0.0-rc.4 api-platform

Ok, perfect, is also a RC, so, it is sufficient stable? I'm experimenting with the platform: I like it a lot!!

[dunglas]

Yes we're in the process of releasing the v2.0.0 stable. And thanks for your feedback!

Ok, just installed... I'll play with it... I hope will very deep play with it!!! And from what I've seen so far, this is a really great application and it will save me a lot of time, give me a direction on the APIs and provide me with very strong guidance about standards! Many thanks to all the team!
