Details

Summary

strlen() was used in Phabricator to check if a generic value is a non-empty string.
This behavior is deprecated since PHP 8.1. Phorge adopts phutil_nonempty_string() as a replacement.

Note: this may highlight other absurd input values that might be worth correcting
instead of just ignoring. If phutil_nonempty_string() throws an exception in your
instance, report it to Phorge to evaluate and fix that specific corner case.

Closes T15307

Test Plan

Applied these two changes (on top D25144, D25145, D25146, D25147, D25150,
D25151, D25152, D25153, D25154 locally applied) and /conduit/ finally
rendered in web browser. Also the page /conduit/query/.

✅ I logged the value of $contains in /conduit/query/ and its domain seems to be always NULL or a string. Alien values will be reported by phutil_nonempty_string() and that is OK.

✅ I logged the value of $label in 50+ pages and its domain seems to be always NULL or a string. Alien values will be reported by phutil_nonempty_string() and that is OK.

I forgot the meme while saying that it works for me in PHP 8.1 without explosions:
