Usage

Enabling the extension

The best way to enable the extension is to create an ini file.

# To see where additional .ini files are located
php -i | grep "dir for additional .ini files"

# Create a new .ini file for the extension
echo "extension=ds.so" > /path/to/ini/files/30-ds.ini

---

You can also enable the extension temporarily using the command line:

php -d extension=ds.so

Documentation

See /php/include.

Testing

There is a suite of PHPUnit tests that can be installed using Composer.

The extension has to be installed to run the tests.

Running the tests

composer install
./vendor/bin/phpunit
