Dear PECL Mailing List,
Conforming to the policies mentioned on the PECL Publishing page, I am sending this message to request access to publish a filesystem notification extension on PECL. First a little introduction. I have been a PHP-dev for more than 20 years and a few years ago I have contributed to PHP with the SameSite RFC. I am also maintaining the MoneyPHP package.
Regarding the extension I would like to publish on PECL, I have been searching for a cross-platform filesystem notification library but I could not find any. The inotify extension has not been updated since 2020. Only after I decided to create this package, the first userland package (azjezz/assess <https://packagist.org/packages/azjezz/assess>) arrived on Packagist. I think an extension with filesystem notifications would be really helpful. Therefore I created the php-ext-fs-notify package <https://github.com/genkgo/php-ext-fs-notify>. The extension name is fs-notify.
To develop the extension I decided to use the PHPER (PHP Enjoy Rust) framework <https://github.com/phper-framework/phper>. I basically used it to create a PHP interface around notify-rs <https://github.com/notify-rs/notify>. This week the package got to a first version that is ready to use for the public. At the moment it supports Linux and macOS filesystem notifications for PHP 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3.
I would love to have access to PECL to publish this extension.
Regards,
Frederik
Hi Frederik,
The idea for an extension for this sounds reasonable.
I've just had a look, but I can't get this to compile with the standard phpize && ./configure && make sequence, which is going to be required if this is going to be installed through the PECL installer.
cheers
Derick
Hi Derick,
Sorry, I was under the impression that I
first had to request access. I have added the config.m4 file so
you should be able to compile the extension. It does require cargo
though.
Regards,
Frederik
Hi Derick,
Would you be willing to have a look at my package again?
Regards, Frederik
