If you want to install ImageMagick with PHP-imagick module then follow the below simple steps ::
ImageMagick Installation
[root@server ~]# yum install ImageMagick
[root@server ~]# yum install ImageMagick-devel
PHP-imagick Installation
[root@server ~]# yum install gcc
[root@server ~]# yum install make automake
[root@server ~]# yum install php-pear [root@server ~]# yum install php-devel
[root@server ~]# pecl install imagick
This will create a imagick.so file under [/usr/lib/php/modules/] for 32 Bit machine or [/usr/lib64/php/modules/imagick.so] for 64 Bit machine and you can enable it by adding the below entry in php.ini file
extension = "imagick.so"
or
echo "extension=imagick.so" > /etc/php.d/imagick.ini
and finally restart httpd service for the changes to take effect .
[root@server ~]# /etc/init.d/httpd restart
You can verify the installation of both the modules using the below commands ::
For ImageMagick
[root@server ~]# which convert
/usr/bin/convert
For PHP-imagick
[root@server ~]# php -m | grep imagick
imagick
That’s all , easy isn’t.
