As the original creators of puppet-php
are no longer maintaining the module, it has been handed over into the care of Vox Pupuli.
Please be sure to update all your links to the new location.
voxpupuli/php is a Puppet module for managing PHP with a strong focus
on php-fpm. The module aims to use sane defaults for the supported
architectures. We strive to support all recent versions of Debian,
Ubuntu, RedHat/CentOS, openSUSE/SLES and FreeBSD. Managing Apache
with mod_php
is not supported.
This originally was a fork of jippi/puppet-php (nodes-php on Puppet Forge) but has since been rewritten in large parts.
Quickest way to get started is simply include
'ing the php
class.
include '::php'
Or, you can override defaults and specify additional custom
configurations by declaring class { '::php': }
with parameters:
class { '::php':
ensure => latest,
manage_repos => true,
fpm => true,
dev => true,
composer => true,
pear => true,
phpunit => false,
}
Optionally the PHP version or configuration root directory can be changed also:
class { '::php::globals':
php_version => '7.0',
config_root => '/etc/php/7.0',
}->
class { '::php':
manage_repos => true
}
There are more configuration options available. Please refer to the auto-generated documentation at https://php.puppet.mayflower.de/.
PHP configuration parameters in php.ini
files can be defined as parameter
settings
on the main php
class, or php::fpm
/ php::cli
classes,
or php::extension
resources for each component independently.
These settings are written into their respective php.ini
file. Global
settings in php::settings
are merged with the settings of all components.
Please note that settings of extensions are always independent.
In the following example the PHP options and timezone will be set in all PHP configurations, i.e. the PHP cli application and all php-fpm pools.
class { '::php':
settings => {
'PHP/max_execution_time' => '90',
'PHP/max_input_time' => '300',
'PHP/memory_limit' => '64M',
'PHP/post_max_size' => '32M',
'PHP/upload_max_filesize' => '32M',
'Date/date.timezone' => 'Europe/Berlin',
},
}
PHP configuration parameters in php.ini
files can be defined
as parameter extensions
on the main php
class. They are
activated for all activated SAPIs.
class { '::php':
extensions => {
bcmath => { },
imagick => {
provider => pecl,
},
xmlrpc => { },
memcached => {
provider => 'pecl',
header_packages => [ 'libmemcached-devel', ],
},
apc => {
provider => 'pecl',
settings => {
'apc/stat' => '1',
'apc/stat_ctime' => '1',
},
sapi => 'fpm',
},
},
}
See the documentation
of the php::extension
resource for all available parameters and default
values.
If different php-fpm pools are required, you can use php::fpm::pool
defined resource type. A single pool called www
will be configured
by default. Specify additional pools like so:
php::fpm::pool { 'www2':
listen => '127.0.1.1:9000',
}
For an overview of all possible parameters for php::fpm::pool
resources
please see its documention.
By default, php-fpm is set up to run as Apache. If you need to customize that user, you can do that like so:
class { '::php':
fpm_user => 'nginx',
fpm_group => 'nginx',
}
This will create one vhost. $users is an array of people having php files at $fqdn/$user. This codesnipped uses voxpupuli/php and voxpupuli/nginx to create the vhost and one php fpm pool per user. This was tested on Archlinux with nginx 1.13 and PHP 7.2.3.
$users = ['bob', 'alice']
class { 'php':
ensure => 'present',
manage_repos => false,
fpm => true,
dev => false,
composer => false,
pear => true,
phpunit => false,
fpm_pools => {},
}
include nginx
nginx::resource::server{$facts['fqdn']:
www_root => '/var/www',
autoindex => 'on',
}
nginx::resource::location{'dontexportprivatedata':
server => $facts['fqdn'],
location => '~ /\.',
location_deny => ['all'],
}
$users.each |$user| {
# create one fpm pool. will be owned by the specific user
# fpm socket will be owned by the nginx user 'http'
php::fpm::pool{$user:
user => $user,
group => $user,
listen_owner => 'http',
listen_group => 'http',
listen_mode => '0660',
listen => "/var/run/php-fpm/${user}-fpm.sock",
}
nginx::resource::location { "${name}_root":
ensure => 'present',
server => $facts['fqdn'],
location => "~ .*${user}\/.*\.php$",
index_files => ['index.php'],
fastcgi => "unix:/var/run/php-fpm/${user}-fpm.sock",
include => ['fastcgi.conf'],
}
}
Alternative to the Puppet DSL code examples above, you may optionally define your PHP configuration using Hiera.
Below are all the examples you see above, but defined in YAML format for use with Hiera.

On Debian-based systems, we use php5enmod
to enable extension-specific
configuration. This script is only present in php5
packages beginning with
version 5.4. Furthermore, PHP 5.3 is not supported by upstream anymore.
We strongly suggest you use a recent PHP version, even if you're using an
older though still supported distribution release. Our default is to have
php::manage_repos
enabled to add apt sources for
Dotdeb on Debian and
ppa:ondrej/php5 on
Ubuntu with packages for the current stable PHP version closely tracking
upstream.
The older Ubuntu PPAs run by Ondřej have been deprecated (ondrej/php5, ondrej/php5.6) in favor of a new PPA: ondrej/php which contains all 3 versions of PHP: 5.5, 5.6, and 7.0 Here's an example in hiera of getting PHP 5.6 installed with php-fpm, pear/pecl, and composer:
php::globals::php_version: '5.6'
php::fpm: true
php::dev: true
php::composer: true
php::pear: true
php::phpunit: false
If you do not specify a php version, in Ubuntu the default will be 7.0 if you are running Xenial (16.04), otherwise PHP 5.6 will be installed (for other versions)
Apache with mod_php
is not supported by this module. Please use
puppetlabs/apache instead.
We prefer using php-fpm. You can find an example Apache vhost in
manifests/apache_vhost.pp
that shows you how to use mod_proxy_fcgi
to
connect to php-fpm.
If you plan to use the SCL repositories with this module you must do the following adjustments:
This ensures that the module will create configurations in the directory ``/etc/opt/rh/<php_version>/` (also in php.d/ for extensions). Anyway you have to manage the SCL repo's by your own.
class { '::php::globals':
php_version => 'rh-php71',
rhscl_mode => 'rhscl',
}
-> class { '::php':
manage_repos => false
}
Extensions in SCL are being installed with packages that cover 1 or more .so files. This is kinda incompatible with this module, since this module specifies an extension by name and derives the name of the package and the config (.ini) from it. To manage extensions of SCL packages you must use the following parameters:
class { '::php':
...
extensions => {
'soap' => {
ini_prefix => '20-',
},
}
}
By this you tell the module to configure bz2 and calender while ensuring only the package common
. Additionally to the
installation of 'common' the inifiles 'calender.ini' and 'bz2.ini' will be created by the scheme
<config_file_prefix><extension_title>
.
A list of commonly used modules:
{
extensions => {
'xml' => {
ini_prefix => '20-',
multifile_settings => true,

We deliver a phpversion
fact with this module. This is explicitly NOT intended
to be used within your puppet manifests as it will only work on your second puppet
run. Its intention is to make querying PHP versions per server easy via PuppetDB or Foreman.
On FreeBSD systems we purge the system-wide extensions.ini
in favour of
per-module configuration files.
Please also note that support for Composer and PHPUnit on FreeBSD is untested and thus likely incomplete.
To run the tests install the ruby dependencies with bundler
and execute
rake
:
bundle install --path vendor/bundle
bundle exec rake
If you happen to stumble upon a bug, please feel free to create a pull request with a fix (optionally with a test), and a description of the bug and how it was resolved.
Or if you're not into coding, simply create an issue adding steps to let us reproduce the bug and we will happily fix it.
If you have a good idea for a feature or how to improve this module in general, please create an issue to discuss it. We are very open to feedback. Pull requests are always welcome.
We hate orphaned and unmaintained Puppet modules as much as you do and therefore promise that we will continue to maintain this module and keep response times to issues short. If we happen to lose interest, we will write a big fat warning into this README to let you know.
