Libmemcached library support for Amazon ElastiCache Memcached Cluster client for PHP. The client is available at https://github.com/awslabs/aws-elasticache-cluster-client-memcached-for-php
- OpenSSL >= 1.1.0 (unless TLS support is disabled by ./configure --disable-tls).
- SASL (libsasl2, unless SASL support is disabled by ./configure --disable-sasl).
-
Launch the instance
-
Install the library dependencies.
a) On Amazon Linux 201509 AMI
sudo yum install gcc gcc-c++ autoconf libevent-devel
b) On Ubuntu 14.04 AMI
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libevent-dev gcc g++ make autoconf libsasl2-dev
- Pull the repository and compile the code
git clone https://github.com/awslabs/aws-elasticache-cluster-client-libmemcached.git
cd aws-elasticache-cluster-client-libmemcached
touch configure.ac aclocal.m4 configure Makefile.am Makefile.in
mkdir BUILD
cd BUILD
../configure --prefix=<libmemcached-install-directory> --with-pic --disable-sasl
If running ../configure fails to find libssl (OpenSSL library) it may be necessary to tweak the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/openssl/lib/pkgconfig ../configure --prefix=<libmemcached-install-directory> --with-pic --disable-sasl
Alternately, if you are not using TLS, you can disable it by running:
../configure --prefix=<libmemcached-install-directory> --with-pic --disable-sasl --disable-tls
make
sudo make install
Then track the installation directory path for libmemcached, as that will be needed to compile PHP memcached client.
Note: if you want to run the ElastiCache memcached PHP client on AMIs other than Amazon Linux, statically link the libmemcached library in the PHP-memcached client compilation, which will generate memcached.so binary extension which should be portable across Linux platforms.
