Easy installation of PHP extensions in official PHP Docker images

This repository contains a script that can be used to easily install a PHP extension inside the official PHP Docker images.

Known limits

Currently the script requires the Debian-based images (no Alpine).

Usage

Here's a sample Dockerfile that installs the GD and xdedub extensions inside a docker image:

FROM php:7.2-cli

ADD https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mlocati/docker-php-extension-installer/master/install-php-extensions /usr/local/bin/

RUN chmod uga+x /usr/local/bin/install-php-extensions && \
    install-php-extensions gd xdebug
