"I want to install Redis, Memcached, or other modules for PECL 7 on an AWS Elastic Beanstalk environment running on PHP 7.3 using Amazon Linux 1 stacks.Short descriptionTo install PECL 7 modules, you must:Install any dependencies.Create a Linux configuration file (.ebextensions) to install and run the PECL 7 modules.Important: The following PHP extensions are already included with the release of the PHP platform on Amazon Linux 2:php-pecl-redis (for communication with the Redis key-value store)php-pecl-memcached (for the Memcached caching daemon)Note: You can install PECL PHP extensions on any PHP environment that has PEAR support. PECL is installed by default on the Elastic Beanstalk PHP stack and is provided by the php-pear RPM. For more information, see redis on the PECL website.ResolutionInstall the Redis extension1.    In the .ebextensions directory in the root of the source bundle of your application, create a .ebextension file based on the following example:commands:  01_install_redis:    command:  /usr/bin/yes 'no'| /usr/bin/pecl7 install redis    test: '! /usr/bin/pecl7 info redis'  02_rmfromphpini:    command: /bin/sed -i -e '/extension="redis.so"/d' /etc/php.ini  03_createconf:    command: /bin/echo 'extension="redis.so"' > /etc/php-7.3.d/41-redis.ini    test: /usr/bin/pecl7 info redisThe .ebextension does the following:Installs the Redis extension (01_install_redis)Removes the entry that the pecl7 command creates on the /etc/php.ini file to load the extension (02_rmfromphpini)Creates a configuration file that loads the Redis module (03_createconf), which requires that the default JSON module loads before the Redis module2.    Deploy the new version of your application to your Elastic Beanstalk environment.3.    Connect to your instance using SSH, and then run the following command:php -m | egrep '(redis)'Output:$ php -m | egrep '(redis)'redisInstall the Memcached extension1.    In the .ebextensions directory in the root of the source bundle of your application, create a .ebextension file based on the following example:packages:  yum:    libmemcached-devel: []The preceding .ebextension installs libmemcached-devel, which is a prerequisite for installing the Memcached extension.2.    In the .ebextensions directory in the root of the source bundle of your application, create a .ebextension file based on the following example:commands:  01_install_memcached:    command:  /usr/bin/yes 'no'| /usr/bin/pecl7 install memcached    test: '! /usr/bin/pecl7 info memcached'  02_rmfromphpini:    command: /bin/sed -i -e '/extension="memcached.so"/d' /etc/php.ini  03_createconf:    command: /bin/echo 'extension="memcached.so"' > /etc/php-7.3.d/41-memcached.ini    test: '/usr/bin/pecl7 info memcached'The .ebextension does the following:Installs the Memcached extension (01_install_memcached)Removes the entry that the pecl7 command creates in the /etc/php.ini file to load the extension (02_rmfromphpini)Creates a configuration file that loads the Memcached extension (03_createconf)3.    Deploy the new version of your application to your Elastic Beanstalk environment.4.    Connect to your instance using SSH, and then run the following command:php -m | egrep '(memcached)'Output:$ php -m | egrep '(memcached)'memcachedFollow"
