Upgrading
---------

[](#upgrading)

### v1.x → v2.x

[](#v1x--v2x)

`->isHoliday()` does not answer `true` for Saturdays and Sundays, so, to obtain the same result as in v1.x this:

```
$date->isHoliday()
```

should be changed to:

```
!$date->isWorkday()
```

or

```
$date->isHoliday() || $date->isWeekend()
```
