Updating PHP Binaries

PHPacker automatically checks for binary updates during builds. Manual updates can be performed

# Update official binaries
phpacker download
 
# Update custom repository
phpacker download "your-org/php-bin"
 
# Force redownload
phpacker download "your-org/php-bin" --force

Binary Cache Management

PHPacker stores downloaded PHP binaries in a local cache to avoid repeated downloads. You can manage this cache with the following commands:

# Display cache information
phpacker cache list
 
# Clear all cached binaries
phpacker cache clear
 
# Clear specific version
phpacker cache clear "your-org/php-bin"

Update Frequency

PHPacker uses static-php-cli to build minimal, statically-linked, self-contained PHP executables for each platform.

They are automatically built weekly to get the latest versions of PHP near enough as soon as they become available.
