====

This extension allows you to embed a PHP interpreter into your python

projects.

Installation

------------

How hard the installation will be depends on a number of factors:

- Your OS.

- Wether your distribution of PHP enables the php-embed SAPI mode.

On Ubuntu, you should *at least* install libphp5-embed and php5-dev, but

you will probably need to install some more development packages.

However, you might need to compile your own PHP.. Don't forget to enable

the --with-embed=shared configure flag. You can safely disable all the

other SAPI modules.

Once you have that covered, you can install this python extension using:

.. code::

    python setup.py install

Usage

-----

.. code:: python

    >>> import pyhp

    >>> pyhp.evaluate('echo $foo;', {'foo': 'bar'})

    'bar'

    >>> pyhp.execute('foo.php', {'foo': 'bar'})

Pretty much any object can be passed from python to PHP. None, strings,

integers, booleans, tuples, lists and dicts are first translated to

their respective PHP type. Objects and callables are passed by a proxy

wrapper which allows access to properties and function / method

invocation.

When calling a python function from PHP code you can pass NULL, integers,

doubles, booleans, strings and arrays and they will be translated to their

respective python types. A heuristic is applied to PHP arrays to determine

if the keys are sequential integers. If so, a list will be passed to the

python callable. Otherwise a dict is passed. Passing PHP objects from PHP

to a python callable is not supported. You can however pass proxied

python objects back to python code.
