Status: Beta
The @now/php builder allows you to use any .php file.
Note: This builder will only include one PHP source file per Lambda. In the future, it will automatically include its dependencies via static analysis.
When to use it
Whenever you want to use PHP.
How to use it
Define a .php file:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
And a now.json like:
{ "version": 2, "builds": [{ "src": "*.php", "use": "@now/php" }] }
After running now, you'll get a URL like this: https://php-deployment-7z9gyzb8j.now.sh/
The example deployment above is open-source and you can view the code for it here: https://php-deployment-7z9gyzb8j.now.sh/_src
