This script is a simple automation on checking extensions status with the upcoming PHP 8 release.
Content about extension's PHP 8 support:
As in any modern PHP project, dependencies are handled by composer.
To install dependencies, run composer install.
All OS support (i.e. enable/disable) is handled by $osMatrix here.
The currently supported OSes are alpine and buster, from the tags available in the official PHP Docker Image.
For a given OS, one may add the following instructions:
-
Pre-build commands to be executed, by adding commands to
$osSpecs[<os-name>]['pre']list (e.g. here). -
Build dependencies to be installed, by adding:
All PHP version is handled by $phpVerMatrix here.
One possible future improvement is to decouple variants (i.e. zts, cli, fpm) from version, by spliting $phpVerMatrix into two, but at this point this is simple enough to work with.
This is the actual core of the script, where one can add/remove extensions and it is all handled by $extList here.
For a given extension, one may add the following instructions:
-
Build dependencies to be installed, by adding:
- OS-Specific dependencies to
$extList[<ext-name>]['deps'][<os-name>]list (e.g. here); - OS-Independant dependencies to
$extList[<ext-name>]['deps']list.
- OS-Specific dependencies to
-
Build commands to be executed, by adding commands to
$extList[<ext-name>]['make']list (e.g. here).
The build path is the directory where the script will output all docker-related files, it is recomended to be a temporary directory (such as /tmp) and this is handled by $buildPath here.
Once everything is set, execute the script by running php ./builder.php.
The output should look like this:
$ php builder.php
