Unable to locate package php7.4-swoole

First of all, this is so cool 🎉
I believe Laravel should use something like this instead of https://php.new which provides only php8.3

I was installing php7.4 but it ended with errors.

hey thanks @darshithedpara for using this tool! currently, all php presets only install default extensions; no framework-specific extensions are included to keep it minimal. we’ll add a laravel-specific preset in the future to install everything needed for laravel.

in the meanwhile you can try to install your extension manualy:

sudo apt install php7.4-swoole

Laravel preset has been added:

curl -fsSL https://tryphp.dev/presets/laravel | bash

Wow so fast 🔥

curl -fsSL https://tryphp.dev/7.4/install.sh | bash

but this is broken FYI.

I tried in fresh installation.

OS : Ubuntu noble 24.04 x86_64
Kernel : Linux 6.8.0-48-generic

curl -fsSL https://tryphp.dev/7.4/install.sh | bash

The command ends with the below output.

hmm indeed the PHP presets include php7.4-swoole by default I will remove it and keep it minimal.
