asdf-php
PHP plugin for asdf version manager.
Original version of this plugin created by @Stratus3D
Why using this plug-in?
Original plug-in appears to be unmaintained and it doesn't work anymore (at least on OSX), so I fixed it to provide compatibility and improve it's documentation.
Install
asdf plugin-add php https://github.com/odarriba/asdf-php.git
Please, remember installing the common required libraries that can be found on the asdf README. They are necessary to build PHP versions too!
Linux
You may need this libraries and packages to be able to compile PHP compiler versions:
sudo apt-get install curl build-essential autoconf libjpeg-dev libpng12-dev openssl libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev pkg-config libsslcommon2-dev libreadline-dev libedit-dev zlib1g-dev libicu-dev libxml2-dev gettext bison libmysqlclient-dev libpq-dev
macOS
In order to compile PHP on macOS machines, you must install some brew packages first:
brew install freetype bison@2.7 gettext icu4c jpeg libpng openssl readline homebrew/dupes/zlib
and, in order to compile 5.x versions of PHP, you must link bison27 and icu4c packages:
$ brew link --force bison@2.7
$ brew link --force icu4c
Important note: There seems to be a bug with PHP configure file on recent versions (> 7.1.4) when using on OSX environments. As can be seen in this PR, it's needed to disable gettext at build time to work, and later on impate the module manually.
To disable it, just execute this before run the asdf install command:
$ export PHP_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS='--disable-gettext'
Development
To modify this plugin into your asdf installation and see changes live, just create a symlink:
ln -s . ~/.asdf/plugins/php

No available versions shown
This could be due to GitHub API quota limits. To solve it, you just need to specify GITHUB_API_USER and GITHUB_API_KEY with your username and a Personal Access Token, so the list-all command can use it to fetch available versions.
