Expected behavior

install of terminus

Actual behavior

[ErrorException] "continue" targeting switch is equivalent to "break". Did you mean to use "continue 2"?

Steps to reproduce the behavior

I think this is relate to a new version of PHP. After an update I started seeing the above message as a warning in vs code phpcs (the php linter). VS Code gave me the file and lines to fix it by changing "continue" to "continue 2" in a switch statement nested in a foreach loop.

Terminus was installed, but the installer was not able to write to your bin dir. To enable the terminus command, add this alias to your .bash_profile (Mac) or .bashrc (Linux) file:

alias terminus=/home/cjokinen/terminus/vendor/bin/terminus

Or you can enable it by adding the directory the executable file is in to your path:

PATH="/home/cjokinen/terminus/vendor/bin:$PATH" `

------------------------------------------- after I checked and now terminus was installed.

I have the same error on Ubuntu 18.10.

Try: $composer self-update

I think this is a PHP 7.3 bug and terminus is not usable there. Seems like a big-ish issue now its GAed.

https://git.mtech-llc.com/open-source/drupal-docker/-/jobs/2942 => shows the full log of requiring this on php 7.3. Along with the version of composer, etc.

https://github.com/pantheon-systems/terminus-installer/pull/36 seems to fix this.

[greg-1-anderson]

Terminus itself seems to work fine with php 7.3.

Any update on this? I'm not familiar with PHP and am unable to install Terminus due to this. The potential fix above still hasn't been merged. This version of PHP is the default in Homebrew and I imagine other package managers as well.
