Composer installable patch to get SilverStripe 3 running on PHP7
Installs a patch (basically https://github.com/lekoala/silverstripe-327 and some minor changes by Mark Guinn, see https://github.com/markguinn/silverstripe-framework/tree/patch-3-327) via composer, so you can run SilverStripe 3.2+ on PHP7.
Uses composer plugin https://github.com/netresearch/composer-patches-plugin to install the patch after a composer install
##Installation
Simply run
composer require wernerkrauss/silverstripe-3-php7:^0.1.0
,
then change your server to run PHP7 and enjoy the speed it provides.
As SilverStripe 3.6 runs on PHP7 out of the box, this patch isn't needed any more. You can safely uninstall it and enjoy the speed of PHP7.0
