Publishing in PECL

If you have written your own PHP extension and would like to list it in our directory, or use our hosting facilities, or help look after existing extensions, you need to apply for a PECL account.

You do not need an account if you want to download, install and/or use PECL packages.

Before filling out this form, please make yourself known on the pecl-dev@lists.php.net mailing list. PECL extensions around GPL'ed libraries will not be accepted, and extensions around LGPL'ed libraries are strongly discouraged. LGPL'ed libraries as required by extensions may not be bundled into PECL either. We strongly encourage contributors to choose the PHP License 3.0 for their extensions to avoid trouble for the end-user of the extension. We also encourage you to use the PHP Coding Standards for your code, as it will help the QA team help you to maintain your extension. Although documentation for extensions is not required, it does make alot of sense if potential users know how to use your extension, see Documentation HOWTO for information on how to document your extension. Submitted documentation will always be under the Open Publication License.

Bogus, incomplete or incorrect requests will be summarily denied.

Confirm your reason for a PECL account:
