!!! This guide was created with Macbook Pro M1. Path may vary for different or even same machine.

Install Homebrew

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"

Install PHP

brew install php

To enable PHP in Apache add the following to httpd.conf and restart Apache:
LoadModule php_module /opt/homebrew/opt/php/lib/httpd/modules/libphp.so

<FilesMatch \.php$>
    SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>

Finally, check DirectoryIndex includes index.php
    DirectoryIndex index.php index.html

The php.ini and php-fpm.ini file can be found in:
    /opt/homebrew/etc/php/8.1/

To restart php after an upgrade:
  brew services restart php
Or, if you don't want/need a background service you can just run:
  /opt/homebrew/opt/php/sbin/php-fpm --nodaemonize

brew services restart php

php --version
PHP 8.1.2 (cli) (built: Jan 21 2022 04:34:01) (NTS)
Copyright (c) The PHP Group
Zend Engine v4.1.2, Copyright (c) Zend Technologies
    with Zend OPcache v8.1.2, Copyright (c), by Zend Technologies

Update config

php -i | grep "additional .ini"
Scan this dir for additional .ini files => /opt/homebrew/etc/php/8.1/conf.d

# Instead of modify setting in default .ini file, /opt/homebrew/etc/php/8.1/php.ini
# You should vi new .ini file to /opt/homebrew/etc/php/8.1/conf.d
# All .ini files in conf.d will be scanned and loaded

# Example
echo "memory_limit = 512M" > /opt/homebrew/etc/php/8.1/conf.d/memory-limit.ini

php --ini
Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /opt/homebrew/etc/php/8.1
Loaded Configuration File:         /opt/homebrew/etc/php/8.1/php.ini
Scan for additional .ini files in: /opt/homebrew/etc/php/8.1/conf.d
Additional .ini files parsed:      /opt/homebrew/etc/php/8.1/conf.d/ext-opcache.ini,
/opt/homebrew/etc/php/8.1/conf.d/memory-limit.ini

php -i | grep "memory_limit"               
memory_limit => 512M => 512M

Install Apache

brew install httpd

DocumentRoot is /opt/homebrew/var/www.

The default ports have been set in /opt/homebrew/etc/httpd/httpd.conf to 8080 and in
/opt/homebrew/etc/httpd/extra/httpd-ssl.conf to 8443 so that httpd can run without sudo.

To restart httpd after an upgrade:
  brew services restart httpd
Or, if you don't want/need a background service you can just run:
  /opt/homebrew/opt/httpd/bin/httpd -D FOREGROUND

brew services restart httpd

httpd -v
Server version: Apache/2.4.52 (Unix)
Server built:   Dec 20 2021 13:35:09

Create httpd-php.conf

vi /opt/homebrew/etc/httpd/extra/httpd-php.conf

# Insert following
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html # Add index.php

# php-fpm default port
<FilesMatch \.php$>
    SetHandler "proxy:fcgi://127.0.0.1:9000"
</FilesMatch>

Update Apache config

vi /opt/homebrew/etc/httpd/httpd.conf

# Change listen to port 8080
Listen 8080 # Port 80 common used by apps like Skype or Teams, change to other port such as 8080 for convenience.

# Enable following modules by uncomment
LoadModule proxy_module lib/httpd/modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_fcgi_module lib/httpd/modules/mod_proxy_fcgi.so
LoadModule rewrite_module lib/httpd/modules/mod_rewrite.so

# Append at the end of the conf
# Load php fcgi configuration
Include /opt/homebrew/etc/httpd/extra/httpd-php.conf
brew services start httpd

Test

echo "<?php echo phpinfo();" > /opt/homebrew/var/www/info.php

curl -I http://localhost:8080/info.php

Install [email protected]

brew install [email protected]

We've installed your MySQL database without a root password. To secure it run:
mysql_secure_installation

MySQL is configured to only allow connections from localhost by default

To connect run:
    mysql -uroot

[email protected] is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /opt/homebrew,
because this is an alternate version of another formula.

If you need to have [email protected] first in your PATH, run:
  echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc

For compilers to find [email protected] you may need to set:
  export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/lib"
  export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/include"


To restart [email protected] after an upgrade:
  brew services restart [email protected]
Or, if you don't want/need a background service you can just run:
  /opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/bin/mysqld_safe --datadir=/opt/homebrew/var/mysql

# Backup existing mysql localtion if needed
ls -la $(which mysql)     
lrwxr-xr-x  1 liow.kitloong  admin  36 Mar 11  2019 /usr/local/bin/mysql -> ../Cellar/[email protected]/5.7.25/bin/mysql

# Link mysql to [email protected]
brew link [email protected] --force

brew services restart [email protected]

mysql -V
mysql  Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.7.37, for osx10.16 (x86_64) using  EditLine wrapper

Install phpMyAdmin

brew install phpmyadmin

To enable phpMyAdmin in Apache, add the following to httpd.conf and
restart Apache:
    Alias /phpmyadmin /opt/homebrew/share/phpmyadmin
    <Directory /opt/homebrew/share/phpmyadmin/>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
            Require all granted
        </IfModule>
        <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
            Order allow,deny
            Allow from all
        </IfModule>
    </Directory>
Then open http://localhost/phpmyadmin
The configuration file is /opt/homebrew/etc/phpmyadmin.config.inc.php

Update config

vi /opt/homebrew/etc/phpmyadmin.config.inc.php
        
# Extend cookies lifetime
$cfg['LoginCookieValidity'] = 7*24*60*60;

Create phpMyAdmin.conf

vi /opt/homebrew/etc/httpd/extra/phpmyadmin.conf

# Insert following
Alias /phpmyadmin /opt/homebrew/share/phpmyadmin
<Directory /opt/homebrew/share/phpmyadmin/>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride All
    <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
        Require all granted
    </IfModule>
    <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </IfModule>
</Directory>

Load phpMyAdmin.conf in Apache

vi /opt/homebrew/etc/httpd/httpd.conf
# Append at the end of the conf
# Load phpMyAdmin configuration
Include /opt/homebrew/etc/httpd/extra/phpmyadmin.conf
brew services restart httpd

Validate

curl -I http://localhost:8080/phpmyadmin

Multi Hosts

vi /opt/homebrew/etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

# Add
$i++;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose'] = 'Server Name';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '128.0.0.2'; // New host
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['port'] = 3306;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['socket'] = '';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type'] = 'tcp';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['extension'] = 'mysqli';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = false;

Prefix credential in config (use at own risk!)

vi /opt/homebrew/etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config'; # Use config

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'username';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'password';
