Text\_Template
==============

[](#text_template)

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

[](#installation)

Text\_Template should be installed using the [PEAR Installer](http://pear.php.net/). This installer is the backbone of PEAR, which provides a distribution system for PHP packages, and is shipped with every release of PHP since version 4.3.0.

The PEAR channel (`pear.phpunit.de`) that is used to distribute Text\_Template needs to be registered with the local PEAR environment:

```
sb@ubuntu ~ % pear channel-discover pear.phpunit.de
Adding Channel "pear.phpunit.de" succeeded
Discovery of channel "pear.phpunit.de" succeeded

```

This has to be done only once. Now the PEAR Installer can be used to install packages from the PHPUnit channel:

```
sb@vmware ~ % pear install phpunit/Text_Template
downloading Text_Template-1.0.0.tgz ...
Starting to download Text_Template-1.0.0.tgz (2,493 bytes)
....done: 2,493 bytes
install ok: channel://pear.phpunit.de/Text_Template-1.0.0

```

After the installation you can find the Text\_Template source files inside your local PEAR directory; the path is usually `/usr/lib/php/Text`.
