Warning
PIE is still in early development. We welcome you to try this out, but please exercise caution when using PIE, as things may go wrong! If you do encounter issues, please do report an issue!
You will need PHP 8.1 or newer to run PIE, but PIE can install an extension to any installed PHP version.
If you are an extension maintainer wanting to add PIE support to your extension, please read extension-maintainers.
- Download
pie.phar
either: - Verify the PHAR's source with
gh attestation verify pie.phar --repo php/pie
- You may then invoke PIE with
php pie.phar <command>
Further installation details can be found in the usage docs.
This documentation assumes you have moved pie.phar
into your $PATH
, e.g.
/usr/local/bin/pie
on non-Windows systems.
A list of extensions that support PIE can be found on https://packagist.org/extensions.
You can install an extension using the install
command. For example, to
install the example_pie_extension
extension, you would run:
$ pie install example/example-pie-extension
This command may need elevated privileges, and may prompt you for your password.
You are running PHP 8.3.10
Target PHP installation: 8.3.10 nts, on Linux/OSX/etc x86_64 (from /usr/bin/php8.3)
