How to install Zephir on Ubuntu?

Question

I would like to install Zephir on my Ubuntu machine.

The goal is to convert some of my existing code into a PHP extension to take advantage of faster execution.

Any pointers are more than appreciated.

Answer 1

Please note that Zephir is currently in the Alpha stage, and therefore errors can be expected.

It is necessary to install certain packages:

json-c re2c

At the command prompt, type:

sudo apt-get install libjson0 libjson0-dev libjson0-dbg sudo apt-get install re2c 

After installing the necessary packages, you can generate the parser as follows:

 ./generate 

Compile the extension (this is your code):

 ./zephir 

The generated code is placed in ext /, where you can perform standard compilation:

 cd ext/ sudo ./install
