Getting Started

How to setup environment for running Serverless-PHP?

Serverless-PHP uses Bref (https://bref.sh) as a PHP runtime environment for AWS Lambda, and Serveless Framework (https://serverless.com) for simplifying the deployments of the application.

Before getting started you should have some basic knowledge of setting IAM Roles, and creating config credentials in your AWS account.

Installing Serverless Framework

As mentioned Serverless-PHP uses open source serverless framework for simplifying the deployment process on AWS. You need to setup cli for serverless framework in your system and create a free serverless pro account.

To install serverless cli you must have latest NODE installed on your device.

Installing Serveless CLI Using NPM

$ npm install serverless
