add ClientBuilder->setConnectionParams()

[Oliboy50]

We want to be able to pass ['client'][] options globally instead of "per request".

This PR hopes to be merged in a 2.3.0 release (because I don't use 5.x yet). 👼
See #507 for master branch PR.

Thanks! LGTM. I was going to say I'd also forward-port this... but looks like you just did that in #507. ❤️

I'm stuck in a few meetings this morning, but I'll tag a new release ASAP so this can be used :)

[Oliboy50]

@polyfractal thanks a lot!
But it seems the Travis build fails on #507 ... but it doesn't seem to be related to my PR... because I have the exact same problem with this really really really simple PR: #504

Travis looks broken on the master branch =/

[polyfractal]

Yep, travis is a bit broken atm. Been fighting it over the json extension... travis uses an older version which isn't compatible with JSON_PRESERVE_ZERO_FRACTION (you can see the recent commits on master have been travis-fighting)

Once I get a few minutes today I'm going to run #507 locally and verify, but I don't expect any problems on master either. :)

[Oliboy50]

sounds fair 😃
the most important for me is to have a new release v2.x.x containing this commit 😋

[Oliboy50]

@polyfractal Sorry to insist but do you think a new release for the 2.x branch including this new feature will be out soon?
I need this change but it's a PITA to use my fork instead of this official repository in my company's projects... so I prefer to do it only if you tell me that it will take a while 😿
Thanks anyway :)

[polyfractal]

Just tagged as v2.3.0 which has this commit. Lemme know if you have any problems :)
