Downloading PECL extensions

Note: PHP Installer for Extensions (PIE) is a new tool that will deprecate PECL. We recommend using PIE to install extensions. Find out more at » https://github.com/php/pie

There are several options for downloading PECL extensions, such as:

• The pecl install extname command downloads the extensions code automatically, so in this case, there is no need for a separate download.
• » https://pecl.php.net/ The PECL website contains information about the different extensions that are offered by the PHP Development Team. The information available here includes: changelog, release notes, requirements, and other similar details.
• pecl download extname PECL extensions that have releases listed on the PECL website are available for download and installation using the » pecl command. Specific revisions may also be specified.
• git Many PECL extensions reside on GitHub.
• SVN Some PECL extensions also reside in SVN. A web-based view may be seen at » https://svn.php.net/pecl/. To download straight from SVN, the following sequence of commands may be used:

  $ svn checkout https://svn.php.net/repository/pecl/extname/trunk extname
  

• Windows downloads The PHP project compiles and offers Windows DLLs for most PECL extensions on the package page.
