Deploy PHP

Detected by

composer.json or .php files at the top of the project. The general rules are in Deploying.

Build

• PHP 8.3 with Composer 2.
• composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader when there is a composer.json.
• The pdo_pgsql extension is there for PostgreSQL.

Start

systemi.toml start, else a Procfile web: line, else PHP's web server on $PORT serving the top folder, so index.php and other .php files answer at their own paths.

Example

<?php
$u = parse_url(getenv('DATABASE_URL'));
$pdo = new PDO(
    sprintf('pgsql:host=%s;port=%d;dbname=%s;sslmode=require', $u['host'], $u['port'], ltrim($u['path'], '/')),
    $u['user'], $u['pass']
);
$rows = $pdo->query('SELECT id, total FROM orders ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 20')->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
header('Content-Type: application/json');
echo json_encode($rows);

Frameworks

Good to know

• Laravel: set APP_KEY, APP_ENV=production, DB_CONNECTION=pgsql and the DB_* values as environment variables, and LOG_CHANNEL=stderr so logs show on the app page. Sessions and cache: use the database or cookie drivers, since storage/ is read-only at run time.
• Build your front-end assets (npm run build) before you zip; the PHP build doesn't run npm.
