Installation¶PHP extensions require a slightly different installation method to a traditional php-based library or framework. You can either download a binary package for the system of your choice or build it from the sources. Windows¶To use phalcon on Windows you can download a DLL library. Edit your php.ini file and then append at the end: extension=php_phalcon.dll
Restart your webserver. The following screencast is a step-by-step guide to install Phalcon on Windows: If you don’t know what DLL to download, use the following script_ to figure it out. Linux/Solaris¶On a Linux/Solaris system you can easily compile and install the extension from the source code: Requirements¶Prerequisite packages are:
Specific packages for common platforms: #Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install php5-dev libpcre3-dev gcc make php5-mysql
# Suse
sudo yast -i gcc make autoconf2.13 php5-devel php5-pear php5-mysql
# CentOS/RedHat/Fedora
sudo yum install php-devel pcre-devel gcc make
# Solaris
pkg install gcc-45 php-53 apache-php53
Compilation¶Creating the extension: git clone --depth=1 git://github.com/phalcon/cphalcon.git
cd cphalcon/build
sudo ./install
Add extension to your php configuration: # Suse: Add this line in your php.ini
extension=phalcon.so
# Centos/RedHat/Fedora: Add a file called phalcon.ini in /etc/php.d/ with this content:
extension=phalcon.so
# Ubuntu/Debian: Add a file called 30-phalcon.ini in /etc/php5/conf.d/ with this content:
extension=phalcon.so
# Debian with php5-fpm: Add a file called 30-phalcon.ini in /etc/php5/fpm/conf.d/30-phalcon.ini with this content:
extension=phalcon.so
Restart the webserver. If you are running Debian with php5-fpm, restart it: sudo service php5-fpm restart
Phalcon automatically detects your architecture, however, you can force the compilation for a specific architecture: cd cphalon/build
sudo ./install 32bits
sudo ./install 64bits
sudo ./install safe
If the automatic installer fails try building the extension manually: cd cphalcon/build/64bits
export CFLAGS="-O2 --fvisibility=hidden"
./configure --enable-phalcon
make && sudo make install
Mac OS X¶On a Mac OS X system you can compile and install the extension from the source code: Requirements¶Prerequisite packages are:
# brew
brew tap homebrew/homebrew-php
brew install php54-phalcon
brew install php55-phalcon
brew install php56-phalcon
# MacPorts
sudo port install php54-phalcon
sudo port install php55-phalcon
sudo port install php56-phalcon
Add extension to your php configuration: FreeBSD¶A port is available for FreeBSD. Just only need these simple line commands to install it: pkg_add -r phalcon
or export CFLAGS="-O2 --fvisibility=hidden"
cd /usr/ports/www/phalcon && make install clean
