phpfarm

Set of scripts to install a dozen of PHP versions in parallel on a system. It also creates a Pyrus installation for each PHP version. Primarily developed for PEAR's continuous integration machine.

The PHP source packages are fetched from museum.php.net (which is not always up-to-date), the official php.net download pages and the pre-release channels. If a file cannot be found, try to fetch it manually and put it into src/bzips/

Setup

• Check out phpfarm from git: git clone git@github.com:yfix/phpfarm.git phpfarm
• cd phpfarm/src/
• ./compile.sh 5.6.14
• PHP gets installed into phpfarm/inst/php-$version/
• phpfarm/inst/bin/php-$version is also executable. You should add inst/bin to your $PATH, i.e. PATH="$PATH:$HOME/phpfarm/inst/bin" in .bashrc, as well as inst/current-bin.

Customization

Default configuration options are in src/options.sh. You may create version-specific custom option files:

• custom-options.sh
• custom-options-5.sh
• custom-options-5.6.sh
• custom-options-5.6.14.sh

The shell script needs to define a variable "$configoptions" with all ./configure options. Do not try to change prefix and exec-prefix.

php.ini values may also be customized:

• custom-php.ini
• custom-php-5.ini
• custom-php-5.6.ini
• custom-php-5.6.14.ini
