Usage with Laravel Vapor

[Shnilj]

I am currently using Laravel Vapor to run Serverless PHP through AWS. By default, Vapor has an option to use Imagick based on this repository see. I was wondering how I can extend this functionality to add SQLSrv support to my project.

Thanks in advance!

Hola @Shnilj, please look at https://github.com/brefphp/extra-php-extensions, there's a layer for SQLSrv already 🙌

Apparently I have the same question. Feels like the vapor and bref layers differ somewhat.

@sonnysantino question is not about existence of the layer, but using it with vapor instead of bref.

@Shnilj any luck?

I found this https://flareapp.io/blog/8-installing-blackfire-on-laravel-vapor and tried to do same steps.

1. git clone https://github.com/brefphp/extra-php-extensions
2. cd extra-php-extensions && make layers layer=yaml
3. Take the necessary zip file from export/ directory
4. Create new layer at AWS lambda, get ARN
5. Update vapor.yml as follows:

...
        layers:
          - vapor:php-8.1:al2
          #- arn:aws:lambda:eu-north-1:209497400698:layer:php-81-fpm:34 # also tried bref runtimes instead of vapor's https://runtimes.bref.sh/
          #- arn:aws:lambda:eu-north-1:209497400698:layer:php-81:34 # however using these breaks function completely
          - arn:aws:lambda:eu-north-1:xxxxxxxxxxxx:layer:yaml-php-81:1 # the custom layer, aws id masked
...

6. Create php/conf.d/yaml.ini with extension=extension=/opt/bref-extra/yaml.so
7. deploy

PHP info says that

Additional .ini files parsed	/opt/vapor/etc/php/conf.d/vapor.ini, /var/task/php/conf.d/yaml.ini

However function_exists('yaml_parse') returns false;

And cloudwatch shows
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/opt/bref-extra/yaml.so' (tried: /opt/bref-extra/yaml.so (libyaml-0.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory), /opt/bin//opt/bref-extra/yaml.so.so (/opt/bin//opt/bref-extra/yaml.so.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)) in Unknown on line 0

Looks like I found a solution.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH	/opt/lib:/opt/lib/bref:/lib64:/usr/lib64:/var/runtime:/var/runtime/lib:/var/task:/var/task/lib

Tried to modify at first, but seems it has no effect or ENV LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/bref/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH is incorrect.
phpinfo() shows LD_LIBRARY_PATH unaltered.

Anyway, I instructed the Dockerfile to copy system libraries libyaml-0.so.2 to a place where vapor environment will look for it: /opt/lib/bref (the default is /opt/bref/lib64)
COPY --from=ext /opt/bref/lib/libyaml-0.so.2 /opt/bref/lib64/libyaml-0.so.2
changed to
COPY --from=ext /opt/bref/lib/libyaml-0.so.2 /opt/lib/bref/libyaml-0.so.2
