What the Avro PHP library is

A library for using Avro with PHP.

Requirements

• PHP >= 7.3
• On 32-bit platforms, the GMP PHP extension
• For testing, PHPUnit

Getting started

Untar the avro-php distribution and put it in your include path:

tar xjf avro-php.tar.bz2 # avro-php.tar.bz2 is likely avro-php-1.4.0.tar.bz2
cp avro-php /path/to/where/you/want/it

Require the avro.php file in your source, and you should be good to go:

<?php
require_once('avro-php/avro.php');

If you're pulling from source, put lib/ in your include path and require lib/avro.php:

<?php
require_once('lib/avro.php');

Take a look in examples/ for usage.
