Enabling curl in php5

I am using macports on my machine and I realized that curl is not enabled. Is there anyway to enable it without completely reconfiguring php?

Thanks!

Solution

  • First, make sure you have the most recent version of macports by running this:

    sudo port -v selfupdate
port upgrade outdated

    According to the macports documentation here, the php5 port should include the curl extension by default. You should be able to install it by doing this from terminal: 

    sudo port install php56

    To install just the curl extension, you can do this:

    sudo port install php56-curl
