# Ansible Role: PHP
|
|
|
|
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/geerlingguy/ansible-role-php.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/geerlingguy/ansible-role-php)
|
|
|
|
Installs PHP on RedHat/CentOS and Debian/Ubuntu servers.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
If you're using an older LTS release of Ubuntu or RHEL, with an old/outdated version of PHP, you need to use a repo or PPA with a maintained PHP version, as this role only works with [PHP versions that are currently supported](http://php.net/supported-versions.php) by the PHP community.
|
|
|
|
## Role Variables
|
|
|
|
Available variables are listed below, along with default values (see `defaults/main.yml`):
|
|
|
|
php_packages: []
|
|
|
|
A list of the PHP packages to install (OS-specific by default). You'll likely want to install common packages like `php`, `php-cli`, `php-devel` and `php-pdo`, and you can add in whatever other packages you'd like (for example, `php-gd` for image manipulation, or `php-ldap` if you need to connect to an LDAP server for authentication).
|
|
|
|
_Note: If you're using Debian/Ubuntu, you also need to install `libapache2-mod-fastcgi` (for cgi/PHP-FPM) or `libapache2-mod-php7.0` (or a similar package depending on PHP version) if you want to use `mod_php` with Apache._
|
|
|
|
php_packages_extra: []
|
|
|
|
A list of extra PHP packages to install without overriding the default list.
|
|
|
|
php_enable_webserver: true
|
|
|
|
If your usage of PHP is tied to a web server (e.g. Apache or Nginx), leave this default value. If you are using PHP server-side or to run some small application, set this value to `false` so this role doesn't attempt to interact with a web server.
|
|
|
|
php_webserver_daemon: "httpd"
|
|
|
|
The default values for the HTTP server deamon are `httpd` (used by Apache) for RedHat/CentOS, or `apache2` (also used by Apache) for Debian/Ubuntu. If you are running another webserver (for example, `nginx`), change this value to the name of the daemon under which the webserver runs.
|
|
|
|
php_enablerepo: ""
|
|
|
|
(RedHat/CentOS only) If you have enabled any additional repositories (might I suggest [geerlingguy.repo-epel](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-repo-epel) or [geerlingguy.repo-remi](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-repo-remi)), those repositories can be listed under this variable (e.g. `remi-php70,epel`). This can be handy, as an example, if you want to install the latest version of PHP 7.0, which is in the Remi repository.
|
|
|
|
php_default_version_debian: ""
|
|
|
|
(Debian/Ubuntu only) The default version of PHP in the given OS version repositories. The specific version is set per distro and per version, but you can override it by providing a value here, like `"7.4"`.
|
|
|
|
**If you'd like to be able to switch PHP versions easily, or use a version that's not available in system packages**: You can use the [`geerlingguy.php-versions`](https://galaxy.ansible.com/geerlingguy/php-versions/) role to more easily switch between major PHP versions (e.g. 5.6, 7.1, 7.2).
|
|
|
|
php_packages_state: "present"
|
|
|
|
If you have enabled any additional repositories such as [geerlingguy.repo-epel](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-repo-epel) or [geerlingguy.repo-remi](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-repo-remi), you may want an easy way to swap PHP versions on the fly. By default, this is set to `"present"`. You can override this variable to `"latest"` to upgrade to the latest available version. Combined with `php_enablerepo`, a user now doesn't need to manually uninstall the existing PHP packages before installing them from a different repository.
|
|
|
|
php_install_recommends: true
|
|
|
|
(Debian/Ubuntu only) Whether to install recommended packages when installing `php_packages`; you might want to set this to `no` explicitly if you're installing a PPA that recommends certain packages you don't want (e.g. Ondrej's `php` PPA will install `php7.0-cli` if you install `php-pear` alongside `php5.6-cli`... which is often not desired!).
|
|
|
|
php_executable: "php"
|
|
|
|
The executable to run when calling PHP from the command line. You should only change this if running `php` on your server doesn't target the correct executable, or if you're using software collections on RHEL/CentOS and need to target a different version of PHP.
|
|
|
|
### PHP-FPM
|
|
|
|
PHP-FPM is a simple and robust FastCGI Process Manager for PHP. It can dramatically ease scaling of PHP apps and is the normal way of running PHP-based sites and apps when using a webserver like Nginx (though it can be used with other webservers just as easily).
|
|
|
|
When using this role with PHP running as `php-fpm` instead of as a process inside a webserver (e.g. Apache's `mod_php`), you need to set the following variable to `true`:
|
|
|
|
php_enable_php_fpm: false
|
|
|
|
If you're using Apache, you can easily get it configured to work with PHP-FPM using the [geerlingguy.apache-php-fpm](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-apache-php-fpm) role.
|
|
|
|
php_fpm_state: started
|
|
php_fpm_enabled_on_boot: true
|
|
|
|
Control over the fpm daemon's state; set these to `stopped` and `false` if you want FPM to be installed and configured, but not running (e.g. when installing in a container).
|
|
|
|
php_fpm_handler_state: restarted
|
|
|
|
The handler restarts PHP-FPM by default. Setting the value to `reloaded` will reload the service, intead of restarting it.
|
|
|
|
php_fpm_listen: "127.0.0.1:9000"
|
|
php_fpm_listen_allowed_clients: "127.0.0.1"
|
|
php_fpm_pm_max_children: 50
|
|
php_fpm_pm_start_servers: 5
|
|
php_fpm_pm_min_spare_servers: 5
|
|
php_fpm_pm_max_spare_servers: 5
|
|
|
|
Specific settings inside the default `www.conf` PHP-FPM pool. If you'd like to manage additional settings, you can do so either by replacing the file with your own template or using `lineinfile` like this role does inside `tasks/configure-fpm.yml`.
|
|
|
|
### php.ini settings
|
|
|
|
php_use_managed_ini: true
|
|
|
|
By default, all the extra defaults below are applied through the php.ini included with this role. You can self-manage your php.ini file (if you need more flexility in its configuration) by setting this to `false` (in which case all the below variables will be ignored).
|
|
|
|
php_fpm_pool_user: "[apache|nginx|other]" # default varies by OS
|
|
php_fpm_pool_group: "[apache|nginx|other]" # default varies by OS
|
|
php_memory_limit: "256M"
|
|
php_max_execution_time: "60"
|
|
php_max_input_time: "60"
|
|
php_max_input_vars: "1000"
|
|
php_realpath_cache_size: "32K"
|
|
php_file_uploads: "On"
|
|
php_upload_max_filesize: "64M"
|
|
php_max_file_uploads: "20"
|
|
php_post_max_size: "32M"
|
|
php_date_timezone: "America/Chicago"
|
|
php_allow_url_fopen: "On"
|
|
php_sendmail_path: "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i"
|
|
php_output_buffering: "4096"
|
|
php_short_open_tag: false
|
|
php_error_reporting: "E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT"
|
|
php_display_errors: "Off"
|
|
php_display_startup_errors: "On"
|
|
php_expose_php: "On"
|
|
php_session_cookie_lifetime: 0
|
|
php_session_gc_probability: 1
|
|
php_session_gc_divisor: 1000
|
|
php_session_gc_maxlifetime: 1440
|
|
php_session_save_handler: files
|
|
php_session_save_path: ''
|
|
php_disable_functions: []
|
|
php_precision: 14
|
|
php_serialize_precision: "-1"
|
|
|
|
Various defaults for PHP. Only used if `php_use_managed_ini` is set to `true`.
|
|
|
|
### OpCache-related Variables
|
|
|
|
The OpCache is included in PHP starting in version 5.5, and the following variables will only take effect if the version of PHP you have installed is 5.5 or greater.
|
|
|
|
php_opcache_zend_extension: "opcache.so"
|
|
php_opcache_enable: "1"
|
|
php_opcache_enable_cli: "0"
|
|
php_opcache_memory_consumption: "96"
|
|
php_opcache_interned_strings_buffer: "16"
|
|
php_opcache_max_accelerated_files: "4096"
|
|
php_opcache_max_wasted_percentage: "5"
|
|
php_opcache_validate_timestamps: "1"
|
|
php_opcache_revalidate_path: "0"
|
|
php_opcache_revalidate_freq: "2"
|
|
php_opcache_max_file_size: "0"
|
|
|
|
OpCache ini directives that are often customized on a system. Make sure you have enough memory and file slots allocated in the OpCache (`php_opcache_memory_consumption`, in MB, and `php_opcache_max_accelerated_files`) to contain all the PHP code you are running. If not, you may get less-than-optimal performance!
|
|
|
|
For custom opcache.so location provide full path with `php_opcache_zend_extension`.
|
|
|
|
php_opcache_conf_filename: [platform-specific]
|
|
|
|
The platform-specific opcache configuration filename. Generally the default should work, but in some cases, you may need to override the filename.
|
|
|
|
### APCu-related Variables
|
|
|
|
php_enable_apc: true
|
|
|
|
Whether to enable APCu. Other APCu variables will be ineffective if this is set to false.
|
|
|
|
php_apc_shm_size: "96M"
|
|
php_apc_enable_cli: "0"
|
|
|
|
APCu ini directives that are often customized on a system. Set the `php_apc_shm_size` so it will hold all cache entries in memory with a little overhead (fragmentation or APC running out of memory will slow down PHP *dramatically*).
|
|
|
|
php_apc_conf_filename: [platform-specific]
|
|
|
|
The platform-specific APC configuration filename. Generally the default should work, but in some cases, you may need to override the filename.
|
|
|
|
#### Ensuring APC is installed
|
|
|
|
If you use APC, you will need to make sure APC is installed (it is installed by default, but if you customize the `php_packages` list, you need to include APC in the list):
|
|
|
|
- *On RHEL/CentOS systems*: Make sure `php-pecl-apcu` is in the list of `php_packages`.
|
|
- *On Debian/Ubuntu systems*: Make sure `php-apcu` is in the list of `php_packages`.
|
|
|
|
### Installing from Source
|
|
|
|
If you need a specific version of PHP, or would like to test the latest (e.g. master) version of PHP, there's a good chance there's no suitable package already available in your platform's package manager. In these cases, you may choose to install PHP from source by compiling it directly.
|
|
|
|
Note that source compilation takes *much* longer than installing from packages (PHP HEAD takes 5+ minutes to compile on a modern quad-core computer, just as a point of reference).
|
|
|
|
php_install_from_source: false
|
|
|
|
Set this to `true` to install PHP from source instead of installing from packages.
|
|
|
|
php_source_version: "master"
|
|
|
|
The version of PHP to install from source (a git branch, tag, or commit hash).
|
|
|
|
php_source_clone_dir: "~/php-src"
|
|
php_source_clone_depth: 1
|
|
php_source_install_path: "/opt/php"
|
|
php_source_install_gmp_path: "/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/gmp.h"
|
|
php_source_mysql_config: "/usr/bin/mysql_config"
|
|
|
|
Location where source will be cloned and installed, and the location of the GMP header file (which can be platform/distribution specific), and `mysql_config` binary (this may be `mariadb_config` in newer operating system versions).
|
|
|
|
php_source_make_command: "make"
|
|
|
|
Set the `make` command to `make --jobs=X` where `X` is the number of cores present on the server where PHP is being compiled. Will speed up compilation times dramatically if you have multiple cores.
|
|
|
|
php_source_configure_command: >
|
|
[...]
|
|
|
|
The `./configure` command that will build the Makefile to be used for PHP compilation. Add in all the options you need for your particular environment. Using a folded scalar (`>`) allows you to define the variable over multiple lines, which is extremely helpful for legibility and source control!
|
|
|
|
A few other notes/caveats for specific configurations:
|
|
|
|
- **Apache with `mpm_prefork`**: If you're using Apache with prefork as a webserver for PHP, you will need to make sure `apxs2` is available on your system (e.g. by installing `apache2-prefork-dev` in Ubuntu), and you will need to make sure the option `--with-apxs2` is defined in `php_source_configure_command`. Finally, you will need to make sure the `mpm_prefork` module is loaded instead of `mpm_worker` or `mpm_event`, and likely add a `phpX.conf` (where `X` is the major version of PHP) configuration file to the Apache module config folder with contents like [`php7.conf`](https://gist.github.com/geerlingguy/5ae5445f28e71264e8c1).
|
|
- **Apache with `mpm_event` or `mpm_worker`**: If you're using Apache with event or worker as a webserver for PHP, you will need to compile PHP with FPM. Make sure the option `--enable-fpm` is defined in `php_source_configure_command`. You'll also need to make sure Apache's support for CGI and event is installed (e.g. by installing `apache2-mpm-event` and `libapache2-mod-fastcgi`) and the `mpm_event` module is loaded.
|
|
- **Nginx**: If you're using Nginx as a webserver for PHP, you will need to compile PHP with FPM. Make sure the option `--enable-fpm` is defined in `php_source_configure_command`.
