Usage

By setting the PHPENV environment variable you can define which php binary you want to use for the php command.

php --version # 8
PHPENV=php7.4 php --version # 7.4

You can define multiple options in PHPENV (divided by :):

PHPENV=php74:php7.4 php --version # 7.4

It tries calling php74 first, and if not continues with php7.4.

Swith php version per folder

By using direnv you can switch php version per folder by setting PHPENV in the .envrc file:

export PHPENV="php7.4:php74"
