Development Tutorials PHP & MySQL
Setting up a mac to run php 7 instead of the default php 5.5.
First install Homebrew if it’s not already installed.
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Then run these commands in terminal:
brew tap homebrew/dupes
brew tap homebrew/versions
brew tap homebrew/homebrew-php
brew install php70
Update the default php version terminal uses by opening your bash profile:
nano ~/.bash_profile
Set the PATH:
export PATH="/usr/local/sbin:$PATH"
Then press CTRL + x to save and exit.
Restart terminal and enter php -v to see the php version in use.
