# Ansible Role: PHP-XHProf [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/geerlingguy/ansible-role-php-xhprof.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/geerlingguy/ansible-role-php-xhprof) Installs PHP [XHProf](http://php.net/manual/en/book.xhprof.php) on Linux servers. > **Note**: The XHProf extension has been on life support since Facebook abandoned active development around 2015. There is a better-maintained fork that works on the latest PHP versions called Tideways, and there's an Ansible role for it—please check out [`geerlingguy.php-tideways`](https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-php-tideways) if you need to support PHP versions later than 7.0. ## Requirements None. ## Role Variables Available variables are listed below, along with default values (see `defaults/main.yml`): workspace: /root Where XHProf setup files will be downloaded and built. xhprof_download_url: https://github.com/RustJason/xhprof/archive/php7.zip xhprof_download_folder_name: xhprof-php7 The URL from which XHProf will be downloaded. Note that this default is for the PHP 7-compatible version of XHProf. If you're using PHP 5.x, you should probably switch to the 'official' upstream source: `https://github.com/phacility/xhprof/archive/master.tar.gz`. xhprof_output_dir: /tmp Directory where XHProf runs are stored. php_xhprof_lib_dir: /usr/share/php/xhprof_lib Directory where the XHProf PHP library is stored. php_xhprof_html_dir: /usr/share/php/xhprof_html Directory where the XHProf UI is stored. ## Dependencies - geerlingguy.php ## Example Playbook - hosts: webservers roles: - { role: geerlingguy.php-xhprof } ## License MIT / BSD ## Author Information This role was created in 2014 by [Jeff Geerling](http://www.jeffgeerling.com/), author of [Ansible for DevOps](https://www.ansiblefordevops.com/).
