compile.sh

Bash script used to compile PHP on MacOS and Linux platforms. Make sure you have make autoconf automake libtool m4 wget getconf gzip bzip2 bison g++ git cmake pkg-config re2c.

Additional notes

Mac OSX (native compile)

  • Most dependencies can be installed using Homebrew
  • You will additionally need glibtool (GNU libtool, xcode libtool won't work)
  • You also MUST specify target as mac or mac64 if building for Mac, on Mac.

Android 64-bit (cross-compile)

  • Only aarch64 targets are supported for Android cross-compile.
  • The aarch64-linux-musl toolchain is required. You can compile and install it using https://github.com/pmmp/musl-cross-make (PMMP fork includes musl-libc patches for DNS resolver config path and increasing stack size limit for LevelDB)
  • It is strongly recommended that you enable abusive optimizations for Android targets (-f flag) for best performance.
Script flags Description
-d Will compile with debug and the xdebug PHP extension
-f Enabling abusive optimizations...
-g Will compile GD2
-j Set make threads to #
-n Don't remove sources after completing compilation
-s Will compile everything statically
-t Set target
-v Enable Valgrind support in PHP
-x Specifies we are doing cross-compile
-P Compiles extensions for the major PocketMine-MP version specified (default 4, can be 4 or 5)

Example:

Target Arguments
linux64 -t linux64 -j4 -f x86_64
linux64, PM5 -t linux64 -j4 -f x86_64 -P 5
mac64 -t mac64 -j4 -f
android-aarch64 -t android-aarch64 -x -j4 -f

Common pitfalls

  • If used, the -t option (target) MUST be specified BEFORE the -f option (optimizations)
  • Avoid using the script in directory trees containing spaces. Some libraries don't like trying to be built in directory trees containing spaces, e.g. /home/user/my folder/pocketmine-mp/ might experience problems.

windows-compile-vs.bat

Batch script utilizing Visual Studio on Windows to compile PHP binaries from sources. Ensure you have Visual Studio 2019, git, 7z and wget installed in your PATH.

This script doesn't accept parameters, but the following environment variables are influential:

Variable Description
PHP_DEBUG_BUILD Disables optimisations and builds PHP with detailed debugging information (useful for debugging segfaults)
SOURCES_PATH Where to put the downloaded sources for compilation
VS_EDITION Edition of Visual Studio installed, set to Community by default
PM_VERSION_MAJOR Major version of PocketMine-MP to build extensions for (defaults to 4, can be 4 or 5)
