Installation of PHP Extensions Using pecl

These states manage the installed pecl extensions. Note that php-pear must be installed for these states to be available, so pecl states should include a requisite to a pkg.installed state for the package which provides pecl (php-pear in most cases). Example:

php-pear:
  pkg.installed

mongo:
  pecl.installed:
    - require:
      - pkg: php-pear

salt.states.pecl.installed(name, version=None, defaults=False, force=False, preferred_state='stable')

New in version 0.17.0.

Make sure that a pecl extension is installed.

name

The pecl extension name to install

version

The pecl extension version to install. This option may be ignored to install the latest stable version.

defaults

Use default answers for extensions such as pecl_http which ask questions before installation. Without this option, the pecl.installed state will hang indefinitely when trying to install these extensions.

force

Whether to force the installed version or not

preferred_state

The pecl extension state to install

salt.states.pecl.removed(name)

Make sure that a pecl extension is not installed.

name

The pecl extension name to uninstall
