> PHP extension for the OpenGL **rendering API** — built with [Zephir](https://zephir-lang.com/), installable via [PHP PIE](https://github.com/php/pie).

`opengl` exposes `gl*` entry points to PHP 8.2+ under `Opengl\GL\…`. It is the draw half of ScrapyardIO's Windowed Visual Output stack. Window/context creation stays in peer packages (`php-io-extensions/glfw`, `php-io-extensions/sdl3`).

OpenGL `#define` tokens live in a companion microscrap wrapper, not in this extension.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

### Via PHP PIE (recommended)

[](#via-php-pie-recommended)

```
pie install php-io-extensions/open-gl
```

### Platform installers

[](#platform-installers)

**macOS** (Homebrew / system frameworks):

```
bash install-macos.sh
# or with Laravel Herd on PATH:
bash install-macos-herd.sh
```

**Debian Trixie / Raspberry Pi OS**:

```
bash install-debian-trixie.sh
```

**JetPack 6 / Ubuntu 22.04** (Jetson):

```
bash install-jetpack6.sh
```

### Manual build with Zephir (maintainers)

[](#manual-build-with-zephir-maintainers)

```
bash scripts/prepare-ext.sh
cd ext && phpize && ./configure --enable-opengl && make
php -n -d extension="$(pwd)/modules/opengl.so" --ri opengl
```

`scripts/prepare-ext.sh` regenerates C sources, patches portable `ext/config.m4`(Darwin `-framework OpenGL` / Linux `-lGL`), applies Zephir 0.19 REGISTER fixups when needed, and strips phpize junk so absolute host paths never ship.
