#!/bin/bash
if [ "$EUID" -ne 0 ]
  then echo "Please run as root"
  exit
fi

apt-get install pkg-config libmagickwand-dev -y
cd /tmp
wget https://pecl.php.net/get/imagick-3.4.3.tgz
tar xvzf imagick-3.4.3.tgz
cd imagick-3.4.3
phpize
./configure
make install
rm -rf /tmp/imagick-3.4.3*
echo extension=imagick.so >> /etc/php/7.2/cli/php.ini
echo extension=imagick.so >> /etc/php/7.2/fpm/php.ini
service php7.2-fpm restart
service nginx restart

Hi there, will the same steps work for php 7.4? By changing the PHP 7.2 reference to PHP 7.4?

Yes this should work. Additionally you would want to check the imagick version since the gist is some kind of old. I‘ll test this next week.

Thanks for the reply. I'll spin up a forge server and test it out as soon as possible.
