Feature Request: PHP build rules #2520

Closed kawtharmahboubi closed 2 years ago

I'm considering using Please as a monorepos build tool , but I cannot figure out if it support php or not , I've taken a look into documentation but I couldn't figure it out. Please can you clarify?

No, I'm afraid there are no PHP build rules. PHP is an interpreted language so you can "build" first party code with a simple filegroup, but there are no rules for third party code.

We're unlikely to implement this in the immediate future, but it would be useful to know what you'd want Please to do for you here. I guess we'd need some rules to pull PHP dependencies and package them up in a directory structure so you can run a apache out of there?

PHP static builds can now be generated thanks to the https://frankenphp.dev/ project.

With the advent of this new capability available to PHP, what would be involved in Please supporting it as a first-class supported language?
