How to do PHP PEAR CI with Bamboo OnDemand?

[Mikko Mikko]

Can we do the following with Elastic Bamboo in order to get PHP PEAR based CI tools working?

As a root install:
php
sqlite
sqlite php dependencies
php-pear

As a root install php-unit and phing using pear, type:
pear config-set auto_discover 1
pear install pear.phpunit.de/PHPUnit
pear channel-discover pear.phing.info
pear install phing/phing

In addition to these can we edit the php.ini on that Elastic Bamboo instance to get things working.

Yes, you've got root rights on your EC2 instance. Log into it and make sure all these commands work (create a script that runs them).

Then, put the script on your EBS volume:

I think PHPUnit is already available on your image, but I don't think phing is.

With the new OnDemand, you can use instance setup scripts (you don't need to use the EBS anymore).
