Ansible Role: PHP Versions

Allows different PHP versions to be installed when using the geerlingguy.php role (or a similar role). This role was originally built for Drupal VM but was released more generically so others could use an easier mechanism for switching PHP versions.

Requirements

Role Variables

Available variables are listed below, along with default values (see defaults/main.yml):

Dependencies
