    php-version: '8.1'
    ini-file: development

    php-version: '8.1'

• Tools pecl, phpize and php-config are now installed by default on Linux. Specifying these in tools input is no longer required.

• The environment variable COMPOSER_NO_INTERACTION is now set to 1 by default, so using --no-interaction in composer commands is not required. (#547)

• The environment is now considered self-hosted unless the GitHub hosted environment is detected. This should prevent broken PHP installs in self-hosted environments when the runner environment variable is not specified. (#554)

• Added support to enable disabled extensions when required by tools. For this extensions are now processed before tools.

• Added support to enable xml extension before installing other extensions using pecl. (#553)

• Speed improvements

  • Reduced the initial I/O in script creation.
  • Reduced the number of PHP calls and it now uses php-config instead.
  • Reduced number of brew calls on macOS setup.
  • Windows builds for all PHP versions are now fetched from shivammathur/php-builder-windows releases as a faster cache with windows.php.net as a fallback.
  • SSL libraries for PHP 5.3 to 5.5 on Windows are now fetched in parallel.
  • PHP builds for PHP 5.3 to 5.5 should now use cached macports builds from shivammathur/php5-darwin.

• Added support for installing tools using composer in different scopes. This allows installing two tools with different versions of a common dependency. (#549)

• Added support to fail immediately when composer setup fails. (#548)

• Added support to parse PECL extension versions when wrongly hyphenated. (#536)

• Added support for composer phars from shivammathur/composer-cache with PHP version as now different PHP versions can have different composer versions for a release type.

• Added setup-php.com as a fallback in addition to jsdeliver.com for script sources.

• Fixed support for fallback sources for tools in Windows.

• Fixed potential exponential backtracking in regex to parse extension input when installing extensions from a git repository.

• Fixed a bug where the ini file used for enabling extensions by pecl in the scan directory was deleted when disabling extensions.

• Refactored extension functions to add_extension.sh and add_extension.ps1.
