What do docker-php-ext-configure, docker-php-ext-install and docker-php-ext-enable do? - Stack Overflow

Top answer

These are helper scripts that helps one install php extensions from source

not all extensions are available in a distribution native package manager or pecl
even if these exist one may want to configure these differently or optimize

Talking about the scripts

docker-php-ext-configure - configure an extension before you build it with docker-php-ext-install. It's executed by docker-php-ext-install, so one should use it if wants to override the defaults
docker-php-ext-install - build extension from source, usually executes docker-php-ext-configure for build configuration, enables the extension (php.ini entry) by executing docker-php-ext-enable after all
docker-php-ext-enable - enables an already installed extension by adding a specific entry to php.ini. Extensions installed with pecl or native package managers may not be enabled by default thus require this additional step. As mentioned above, extensions installed with docker-php-ext-install are being enabled automatically.

these functions can help to set-up your PHP configuration, if per example you want to add opcache to your PHP configuation:

firstly you configure as below :

docker-php-ext-configure gd \
    --enable-gd-native-ttf \
    --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib \
    --with-freetype-dir=/usr/include/freetype2 && \
    docker-php-ext-install gd \

and you install your configuration

  && docker-php-ext-install opcache

and then you can enable it

  && docker-php-ext-enable opcache
