Package Health

mtdowling/cron-expression

Unfit to use for a new dependency: Packagist marks the package abandoned and provides a replacement, with no release since December 2019 and no recent commits. Its MIT license, tests, documentation, and focused dependency set are solid, but they do not offset the clear abandonment risk.

Health Score Breakdown

Registry deprecationdanger

Packagist marks the entire package as abandoned and points to dragonmantank/cron-expression as its replacement, making continued adoption a severe maintenance risk.

Release historydanger

The package has nine releases since 2012 but none in the last 12 months; its latest release was in December 2019, indicating a prolonged lack of release maintenance.

Repo commit activitydanger

The repository had zero commits and zero active maintainers in the last three months, reinforcing the risk that this package is no longer actively maintained.

Repo toolingcaution

Composer build tooling is present, but no security scanning tools were detected; this is a minor transparency gap, especially for a package that is otherwise abandoned.

Repository archivedcaution

The repository is not archived and was pushed in April 2024, which is a limited positive sign, but it does not compensate for the package-level abandonment notice and absent recent release activity.
