CLI commands

Installing & upgrading

php command.php extension --file="path/to/extension/package.zip"

See more commands.

Note

In some cases, installing extensions via CLI is preferable, as usually PHP configuration for CLI is not as limited as for a web server. Hence, it handles better such tasks as database index creation.
