Onion
Onion, The fast approach to make/install/bundle PEAR packages for PHP.
Onion is able to generate a PEAR2-compatible package.xml file from a very simple config file, you can release your PEAR package very quickly!
And through Onion, you can also install PEAR dependencies into local bundle (just like Ruby Bundler).
Onion is not target to replace other package manager, its target is to make current PEAR ecosystem easier.
Let's keep hard long PEAR package.xml away! :-)
Onion is for people want to..
- Build PEAR, PECL package easily, quickly.
- Install PEAR dependencies into local project directory. (like Ruby Bundler)
What People Say
nrk:
its own package.ini file looks simple enough to edit and maintain.
It's been super-easy to get up and running and I haven't encountered any real
problems. Onion looks good already.

- curl
The minimal spec file
[package]
name = Onion
desc = package description
version = 0.0.1
author = Yo-An Lin <cornelius.howl@gmail.com>
channel = pear.php.net
A Quick tutorial for building PEAR package
Get and install onion:
$ curl -s http://install.onionphp.org/ | sh
Please make sure your directory structure:
src/ # contains php source code
doc/ # documentation files (optional)
tests/ # unit testing files
Fill your package.ini
file:
[package]
name = Onion
desc = package description
version = 0.0.1
channel = pear.php.net
author = Yo-An Lin <cornelius.howl@gmail.com>
To generate a package.xml 2.0 spec file for PEAR and build a PEAR package, just run:
$ onion build --pear
Then Your PEAR package is out!
The --pear
flag is optional.
See:
$ onion help build
Adding package dependencies
[package]
name = Onion
desc = package description
version = 0.0.1
author = Yo-An Lin <cornelius.howl@gmail.com>
channel = pear.php.net
[require]
php = 5.3
pearinstaller = 1.4
pear.php.net/PackageName = 0.0.1
Bundle
Install PEAR dependencies into vendor/ directory
$ onion install
Compile package to Phar executable/library file
An example, we use onion to compile our executable file onion
:
$ onion compile \
--executable \
--classloader \
--bootstrap scripts/onion.embed \
--lib src \
--lib ../CLIFramework/src \
--lib ../GetOptionKit/src \
--output onion
For C Extensions
Simple put a extension attribute:
[package]
...
extension = yourext
Available Config Tags
please checkout doc/SPEC.md
Version Naming
version naming standard from PEAR group: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/rfc.version-naming.standard.php
Customize roles
There are many built-in roles so that you don't need to define it by yourself, built-in roles are:
- src/ php role
- docs/ doc role
- tests/ test role
- *.md doc role
But you can add custom roles by yourself.
[roles]
path/to/data = data
path/to/library = php
path/to/doc = doc
A more detailed example
[package]
name = your package name
desc = package description
summary = .... # optional, default to Description
homepage = http://your.web.com # optional
