Updating dependency from mtdowling/cron-expression to dragonmantank/cron-expression

[touchweb-vincent]

Hello,

Thanks you for all this work. It's awesome.

Are you aware that mtdowling/cron-expression is falling ? According to http://ctankersley.com/2017/10/12/cron-expression-update/ , it seems there is a complete rewrite.

The prototype of CronExpression::factory seems to remain the same in the new project (dragonmantank/cron-expression)

OLD : https://github.com/mtdowling/cron-expression/blob/master/src/Cron/CronExpression.php
NEW : https://github.com/dragonmantank/cron-expression/blob/master/src/Cron/CronExpression.php

I guess there is no problem to update your composer.json to replace "mtdowling/cron-expression": "~1.0" by "dragonmantank/cron-expression/": "~2.0"

Best regards

Vincent

@vincent-guesnard thank you for the appreciation and for the heads up.

I currently have one open PR ready to be merged, I am holding off though, the reason is dragonmantank/cron-expression requires php >=7.0.0, so I'll have to adapt my requirements as well.

Bottom line is that I have to make a major release and increase the required php version to 7, it's kind of a big change to drop support for php < 7.

I'll keep the PR open, any comment is more than welcome!

Hi. First of all, thanks for your amazing work. I'm using php-cron-scheduler on several projects and it works like a charm. :)

Just wanted to up this issue. I think everyone is ready to move to php >= 7.0!
