Custom php.ini when executing php as shell script

Question

I am running php as a shell script.

(Not sure if the "shell script" is correct. The file starts with #!/usr/bin/php)

This works great. But the MongoDB class does not load, since the correct php.ini (having extension=mongo.so) is not used.

How can i use php.ini?

Already tried #!/usr/bin/php -c /usr/local/lib/php.ini

But I still get the same error - Fatal error: Class 'Mongo' not found

What can be done?

Answer 1

In this particular situation. I'd

• Check if the Mongo module is loaded (using extension_loaded () or class_exists () )
• If not loaded, try loading the Mongo module using dl ()
• , , (STDERR trigger_error()

php.ini - CLI. php.ini script XYZ ( )?

Answer 4

Change the .bashrc located in your home directory and add the following line:

alias php='php -c /path-to-custom/php.ini'

Answer 5

another option is to use a small sh shell, something like this below in myapp.sh, don't forget chmod + x on the script to run it

#!/usr/bin/env sh

SOMEVAR='Yea Baby!'

export SOMEVAR

php -c /path/to/my/custom/php.ini /path/to/my/old_script.php

with added bonus to the ability to set or override env vars pre-run
