PEAR install quick howto on Debian Lenny: Image_Graph

Tested on Debian Lenny.

Time elapsed before a working script \< 10 minutes=> https://swp.com/wp-content/mu-plugins/wpcom-smileys/twemoji/2/72x72/1fpng 😉

Install PEAR installer:

apt-get install php-pear

First, type:

pear -h

to get help.

On root shell type:

pear install --alldeps Image_Graph

Install failed with error:

Failed to download pear/Image_Graph within preferred state “stable”, latest release is version 2, stability “alpha”, use “channel://pear.php.net/Image_Graph-2” to install

Retype as:

pear install --alldeps Image_Graph-2

Repeat for other alpha dependencies the same procedure, eg:

pear install --alldeps Numbers_Words-0

At last, you got:

Nothing to install

Now, you can find all installed packages on /usr/share/php.

ImageGraph is installed on /usr/share/php/Image/Graph.php.

You have to include it on your PHPs.

You can follow the Ian’s howto on:

To start using PEAR Image_Graph.

Here the result using Ian’s code on my Linux box:

Additional info:

Hosting providers (eg. HostMonster) sometimes furnish simplified PEAR installation via CPanel. So, you can use local PEAR installation for developement, and online installation for production use.

Remember:

To check differences between local and production versions
To change include path! (say no to white screen!)
