Download System Dependencies
On the Linux system you want the application to be installed on, run the following commands:
# Add basic system dependencies if aren't already installed
apt -y install software-properties-common curl apt-transport-https ca-certificates gnupg
# Add additional repositories for PHP
LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 add-apt-repository -y ppa:ondrej/php
# Update repositories list
apt update
# Install Dependencies
apt -y install php8.4 php8.4-{common,cli,gd,mysql,mbstring,bcmath,xml,fpm,curl,zip} mariadb-server nginx tar unzip git redis-server
Download Composer
Composer is needed to manage PHP packages for us. Once the above commands have been executed, run the following:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | sudo php -- --install-dir=/usr/local/bin --filename=composer
