To install PHP extensions in CentOS and Red Hat systems, you can usually use the dnf command in the software repository. However, some PHP extensions do not exist in the official software repository, and are not compatible with other software repositories. It is very convenient to use the Pecl command to install PHP extensions on the PHP official website.

The website looks a bit simple, but the PHP extensions in it are all essential.

What is PECL

PECL is a repository for PHP extensions, providing a catalog of all known extensions and hosting facilities for downloading and developing PHP extensions.

PECL uses the same packaging and distribution system as its sister PEAR.

How to use PECL commands

Example: I want to install an imagick extension

pecl install imagick

Note: Before installing the PHP extension, you need to install the main software first. The PHP extension only supports the software to be called in PHP. If the main software is not installed, then installing the PHP extension is invalid.

After the imagick extension is installed, you also need to add "extension=imagick.so" to the php.ini file.

echo extension=imagick.so >> /etc/php.ini

Last Use php -m | grep imagickRun the command to check. If the extension is displayed normally, then the installation is successful.
