I posted several talks about compiling PHP from source, but everyone was trying to convince me that a package manager like Homebrew was a more convenient way to install.

The purpose of Homebrew is simple: a package manager for macOS that will allow you to set up and install common packages easily and allows you to update frequently using simple commands.

I used a clean installation of macOS Sierra to ensure all steps could be recorded and tested. In most cases you already have done work on your Mac, so chances are you can skip a few steps in this tutorial.

Apache and PHP with homebrew

I’ve made this according to the installation instructions given on GetGrav.

• brew tap homebrew/dupes
• brew tap homebrew/php
• Install PHP 7.0.+ brew install php70
• Install mcrypt: brew install mcrypt php70-mcrypt
• Finally, install composer: brew install composer

NOTE: This assumes that you have Valet, Homebrew, Sublime Text and PHP properly installed and functioning and will only focus on the setup and installation and setup of Xdebug. There are other tutorials that go into great depth explaining how to get those tools installed on your mac.

Let's get started right away!

Installing Xdebug

You need to know which version of PHP you are running in your machine. To do so, from the terminal run the command php -v and this will display something like this

PHP 7.0.14 (cli) (built: Dec  8 2016 23:34:17) ( NTS )

Mac OSX Sierra : Brew Apache + Mysql + PHP Switcher + DNSMasq + SSL 👍

Things I had to do using Homebrew to get my local web dev environment back up and running after migration to OSX Sierra + Xcode 8.1.

Note: I used brew reinstall because I had already installed most of this previously under Yosemite. Probably better ways to do this, but this is what worked for me.

brew doctor

brew tap homebrew/dupes
brew tap homebrew/versions
