Today i was trying to install laravel in MAMP , While going through their step on laravel site mentioned i found that i didn installed mycript extension. I had googled for lot of time and lastly i installed .
I am writing this will help some one to install laravel in Mac using MAMP.
Install composer
Before installing laravel we have to install composer . We can go to https://getcomposer.org/ and we can install from from there or we can follow the following steps step
1. first we have to check curl is enabled . step 2. we can install composer globally as mentioned in their site
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
Install Laravel
1.once we installed composer we have to move to htdocs and to our directory from our terminal
cd /directory/folder
2. We can tell composer to download laravel and install by following commands
composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1"
composer create-project laravel/laravel your-project-name --prefer-dist
And here it will come to as for mycrypt extension .
Mcrypt PHP extension required.
To solve this issue we have to check the php version frist
php -v
3.Now let us have our PHP version, in my case 5.6.2, we can open our .bash_profile script
nano .bash_profile
4. Add our MAMP PHP version after the code already present ,Exit the file and Save it.
export MAMP_PHP=/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.5.10/bin export PATH="$MAMP_PHP:$PATH"
5. Now we can try to install Laravel again That is it!.
composer create-project laravel/laravel your-project-name --prefer-dist
6. We can see Laravel is downloading and installing
Finally it will show like installed. Application key (*******) installed successfully.
Now let us go to browser and check the URL.
That is it!
