Environment variables
All environment variables mentioned in the list on this page have default values unless otherwise noted. You can override the default values by setting these environment variables.
Generally, you don't need to modify any of the following environment variables as they are already set to optimal values. However, if you have special needs, you can set these environment variables to meet your needs (for example, you need to debug PHP performance under different compilation parameters).
If you want to use custom environment variables, you can use the export command in the terminal or set the environment variables directly before the command, for example:
# export first
export SPC_CONCURRENCY=4
bin/spc build mbstring,pcntl --build-cli
# or direct use
SPC_CONCURRENCY=4 bin/spc build mbstring,pcntl --build-cliGeneral environment variables
General environment variables can be used by all build targets.

FreeBSD
Due to the small number of users of the FreeBSD system, we do not provide environment variables for the FreeBSD system for the time being.
Unix
For Unix systems such as macOS, Linux, FreeBSD, etc., the following environment variables are common.
| var name | default value | comment |
|---|---|---|
PATH | $BUILD_BIN_PATH:$PATH | System PATH |
PKG_CONFIG_PATH | $BUILD_LIB_PATH/pkgconfig | pkg-config search path |
PKG_CONFIG | $BUILD_BIN_PATH/pkg-config | pkg-config executable path |
Library Environment variables (Unix only)
Starting from 2.2.0, static-php-cli supports custom environment variables for all compilation dependent library commands of macOS, Linux, FreeBSD and other Unix systems.
In this way, you can adjust the behavior of compiling dependent libraries through environment variables at any time. For example, you can set the optimization parameters for compiling the xxx library through xxx_CFLAGS=-O0.
Of course, not every library supports the injection of environment variables. We currently provide three wildcard environment variables with the suffixes:
_CFLAGS: CFLAGS for the compiler_LDFLAGS: LDFLAGS for the linker_LIBS: LIBS for the linker
The prefix is the name of the dependent library, and the specific name of the library is subject to lib.json. Among them, the library name with - needs to replace - with _.
Here is an example of an optimization option that replaces the openssl library compilation:
openssl_CFLAGS="-O0"The library name uses the same name listed in lib.json and is case-sensitive.
TIP
When no relevant environment variables are specified, except for the following variables, the remaining values are empty by default:
| var name | var default value |
|---|---|
pkg_config_CFLAGS | macOS: $SPC_DEFAULT_C_FLAGS -Wimplicit-function-declaration -Wno-int-conversion, Other: empty |
pkg_config_LDFLAGS | Linux: --static, Other: empty |
imagemagick_LDFLAGS | Linux: -static, Other: empty |
imagemagick_LIBS | macOS: -liconv, Other: empty |
ldap_LDFLAGS | -L$BUILD_LIB_PATH |
openssl_CFLAGS | Linux: $SPC_DEFAULT_C_FLAGS, Other: empty |
| others... | empty |
The following table is a list of library names that support customizing the above three variables:
| lib name |
|---|
| brotli |
| bzip |
| curl |
| freetype |
| gettext |
| gmp |
| imagemagick |
| ldap |
| libargon2 |
| libavif |
| libcares |
| libevent |
| openssl |
TIP
Because adapting custom environment variables to each library is a particularly tedious task, and in most cases you do not need custom environment variables for these libraries, so we currently only support custom environment variables for some libraries.
If the library you need to customize environment variables is not listed above, you can submit your request through GitHub Issue.
