About:
PHP Installer for Extensions (PIE) is a modern, Composer-based tool designed to streamline the installation and management of PHP extensions. It simplifies the complex process of building and enabling extensions by handling dependencies and configurations automatically. This provides developers with a reliable, standardized workflow for enhancing their PHP runtime capabilities.
Key Features:
  • Composer-based dependency management
  • Automated extension building and installation
  • Standardized configuration handling
  • Support for PECL packages
Use Cases:
  • Installing and managing PHP extensions for specific projects
  • Setting up development environments with required PHP modules
  • Automating PHP extension deployment in CI/CD pipelines
Alternatives:
  • pecl – PECL is the traditional installer but lacks modern dependency management features that PIE provides through Composer integration.
  • manual compilation – Compiling extensions manually offers more control but is time-consuming and error-prone compared to PIE's automated approach.
