This project provides actions to build PHP and its extensions on Windows.
Build PHP for a specific version, architecture and thread safety.
- name: Build PHP
uses: php/php-windows-builder/php@v1

php-version: '8.3.2'
arch: x64
ts: nts
php-version
(required) - The PHP version to build. It supports values in major.minor.patch format, e.g. 7.4.25, 8.0.12, etc.arch
(required) - The architecture to build. It supports valuesx64
andx86

The above workflow will produce the following the following builds for the PHP version 8.3.2
as artifacts.
- nts-x64, nts-x64-AVX, ts-x64, nts-x86, ts-x86.
- debug-pack and devel-pack for each the above configurations.
- test pack
Build a PHP extension for a specific version.
- name: Build the extension
uses: php/php-windows-builder/extension@v1
with:
extension-url: https://github.com/xdebug/xdebug
extension-ref: '3.3.1'
php-version: '8.3'
ts: nts
arch: x64
args: --enable-xdebug
libs: zlib
extension-url
(optional) - URL of the extension's git repository, defaults to the current repository.extension-ref
(required) - The git reference to build the extension, defaults to the GitHub reference that triggered the workflow.php-version
(required) - The PHP versions to build the extension for.arch
(required) - The architecture to build the extension for.ts
(required) - The thread safety to build the extension for.args
(optional) - Additional arguments to pass to theconfigure
script.libs
(optional) - Libraries required for the extension.build-directory
(optional) - The directory to build the extension in, defaults to the user's temporary directory.run-tests
(optional) - Run the extension tests. Defaults totrue
.test-runner
(optional) - The test runner to use. Defaults torun-tests.php
.auth-token
(optional) - Authentication token to use in case the extension is hosted on a private repository.
Instead of having to configure all the inputs for the extension action, you can use the extension-matrix
action to get the matrix of jobs with different input configurations.
jobs:
get-extension-matrix:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v4
- name: Get the extension matrix
id: extension-matrix
uses: php/php-windows-builder/extension-matrix@v1
with:
extension-url: https://github.com/xdebug/xdebug
extension-ref: '3.3.1'
php-version-list: '8.3, 8.4'
arch-list: 'x64, x86'
ts-list: 'nts, ts'
extension-url
(optional) - URL of the extension's git repository, defaults to the current repository.extension-ref
(optional) - The git reference to build the extension, defaults to the GitHub reference that triggered the workflow.php-version-list
(optional) - The PHP versions to build the extension for. Defaults to the PHP versions required in thecomposer.json
file.arch-list
(optional) - The architectures to build the extension for. Defaults tox64, x86
.ts-list
(optional) - The thread safety to build the extension for. Defaults tonts, ts
.allow-old-php-versions
(optional) - Allow building the extension for older PHP versions. Defaults tofalse
.auth-token
(optional) - Authentication token to use in case the extension is hosted on a private repository.
matrix
- The matrix of jobs with different input configurations.
By default, the extension-matrix
action will use the PHP versions defined in the php-version-list
input.
If the php-version-list
input is not provided, it will use the PHP versions required in the composer.json
file.
It will also check if a GitHub hosted Windows runner is available with the required Visual Studio version to build the extension for the PHP version. To override this for building the extension for older PHP versions, you will have to set the input allow_old_php_versions
to true
and add self-hosted Windows runners as specified in the table below.
PHP Version | Visual Studio Version | Windows Runner Labels |
---|---|---|
7.0 | 2015 (vc14) | windows-2012, self-hosted |
7.1 | 2015 (vc14) | windows-2012, self-hosted |
7.2 | 2017 (vc15) | windows-2016, self-hosted |
7.3 | 2017 (vc15) | windows-2016, self-hosted |
7.4 | 2017 (vc15) | windows-2016, self-hosted |
8.0 | 2019 (vs16) | windows-2019, github-hosted |
