Installs phpenv php version manager application in a global way and build php from source.

The cookbook provides LWRPs to easily build new php versions.

The cookbook was tested on ubuntu server 12.04 and may not works on other systems.

Requires Chef 10.16.4 or later.

Add the defaultrecipe to your run list:

{ "run_list": ["recipe[phpenv]"] }

By default phpenv will be installed into /opt/phpenv directory and can be used by every user but only root can build a new php version and set the global php version.

You can build different php versions just like specifying e.g. the following attributes:

"phpenv": {
  "phps": [
    {
      "release": "5.3.25",
      "environment": { "LDFLAGS": "-lstdc++" }
    },
    "5.4.15"
  ],
  "global": "5.4.15"
}
