# setup-phpmyadmin
Automate the process of downloading, extracting, and setting up the latest phpMyAdmin release using a simple PHP script.
## Features
- Automatically downloads the latest phpMyAdmin ZIP archive from the official source
- Extracts the contents safely into a temporary directory
- Moves files into a clean `pma/` directory ready for use
- Cleans up temporary files and ZIP archives after installation
- Provides detailed CLI or web output with timestamps
- Error handling and logging for easier debugging
## Requirements
- PHP 7.2 or higher with `zip` extension enabled
- `allow_url_fopen` enabled to download files via `file_get_contents`
- Writable web directory to create `pma/` and temporary folders
## Usage
### Via CLI
Run the script from the command line:
```bash
php setup-phpmyadmin.php
```
### Via Web Browser
Upload the script to your web server and access it through your browser. Make sure the directory permissions allow file creation and deletion.
## Configuration
You can customize these variables at the top of `setup-phpmyadmin.php`:
- `$downloadUrl` — URL to the latest phpMyAdmin ZIP file (default points to official latest release)
- `$pmaDir` — target directory where phpMyAdmin files will be placed (default: pma)
- `$tempDir` — temporary extraction directory (default: temp_pma_extract)
## How It Works
- Downloads the latest phpMyAdmin ZIP archive.
- Creates necessary directories for extraction and final files.
- Extracts the ZIP contents to a temporary directory.
- Moves extracted files from temporary directory to the final pma/ directory.
- Deletes temporary extraction folders and ZIP files.
- Logs progress and errors to phpmyadmin_setup_errors.log.
## Error Handling
Script displays errors on screen and logs detailed messages in phpmyadmin_setup_errors.log.
If download or extraction fails, the script stops and outputs an error message.
