Installation

PAM 0.1.35 ships prebuilt Linux releases for x86_64 and ARM64. Official archives target glibc 2.35 or newer.

Install a release

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 --fail --silent --show-error --location \
  --output pam-install.sh \
  https://github.com/push-in/pam/releases/latest/download/install.sh

sh pam-install.sh
rm pam-install.sh

pam --version
pam doctor .

The installer verifies the release SHA-256, rejects unsafe archive paths, and installs without root under ~/.local.

The latest URL follows the current public tag. Pin a release in CI or a reproducible image:

https://github.com/push-in/pam/releases/download/v0.1.35/install.sh

An official bundle includes:

the PAM binary;
its exact private PHP Embed library;
a reviewed set of common PHP extensions;
an isolated PHP INI tree; and
the non-system shared libraries required by the runtime.

You do not need a system PHP installation, global Composer, Rust, PHP development headers, or an FPM service to use an official release.

Platform support

Target	Current support
Linux server, x86_64	Available; glibc 2.35+
Linux server, ARM64	Available; glibc 2.35+
Android native	API 26–36
iOS native	Swift/UIKit renderer implemented; app host, packaging, and device verification incomplete
Linux desktop	Experimental bundle and Debian package
macOS desktop	Planned
Windows desktop	Planned

Build the runtime from source

Runtime contributors need Rust 1.94 or newer, a C toolchain, PHP 8.4 development headers, and the matching Embed library. Official release workflows use the pinned Rust 1.97.1 toolchain.

sudo apt-get install -y build-essential php8.4-dev libphp8.4-embed
cargo build --locked --release

Use PHP_CONFIG and PAM_PHP_LIB_DIR when working with a custom build toolchain. These are build-time settings, not end-user requirements.

See release 0.1.35 for the shipped production operations, verification commands, and public package records.
