Getting started
Allows you to share data across requests as long as the PHP process is running.
- PHP 5.3.9 or later
- At least one of the following:
If you download the ".phar" archive, you can just include the archive, and be ready to go, like for example:
<?php
//You may want to include a namespace declaration here
require_once 'PEAR2_Cache_SHM-0.2.0.phar';
//Use any PEAR2_Cache_SHM class from here onInstallation with Pyrus/PEAR2 (recommended)
Assuming you have installed Pyrus, you can install PEAR2_Cache_SHM from the pear2.php.net channel with
php pyrus.phar install PEAR2_Cache_SHM-alphaIf you've decided to not use the pear2.php.net channel, but instead install directly from the archive distributed at the project page, you can use
php pyrus.phar install /path/to/downloaded/archive.tgzInstallation with PEAR
Like most PEAR2 packages, PEAR2_Cache_SHM is compatible with the PEAR installer. However, you have to first discover the PEAR2 channel with
pear channel-discover pear2.php.netand only then install PEAR2_Cache_SHM with
pear install pear2/PEAR2_Cache_SHM-alphaInstallation with Composer
This package is available from packagist.org, so all you have to do is to go to your project's directory (where your composer.json is), and run
composer require pear2/cache_shm:*@alphaThis package has no external dependencies (well, not ones written in PHP), so you can just download an archive, and extract the contents of the "src" folder wherever you like. To emulate the PEAR2 installer, you can place the files in a folder that's within your include_path.
Installation from the repository (with Git)
If you want to get the "cutting edge", unpackaged version of PEAR2_Cache_SHM, you'll need to have Git. Once you have it, create a folder to place the package and its dependencies in, navigate to it from the command line, and execute the following command:
git clone https://github.com/pear2/Cache_SHM.git Cache_SHM.gitNote: If you plan to contribute to this project, please use GitHub's "fork" feature instead, and then apply "git clone" on it, instead of the original repository.
If the package doesn't work, you can download the "phar" file (maybe rename it from ".phar" to ".php"), and run it in your browser or command line.
When you do that, you should see the version of the package, along with some messages indicating if you're missing any of the requirements. If all requirements are present, you'll see what adapters can you use under the SAPI you're running the file with.
