### Installing the PHP extension

The package contains two versions of the `HStoreParser` as PHP extension. PHP extension is optional but as it brings some nice performance improvements, you might want to install it in your production environment.

#### PHP extension (PHP-CPP)

The first extension is written in [PHP-CPP](http://www.php-cpp.com) thats why you should [install PHP-CPP](http://www.php-cpp.com/documentation/install) before extension compiling.

The extension compiling:
```bash
cd path/to/Intaro/HStoreBundle/Resources/phpcpp
make
sudo make install
```
Finally, enable the extension in your `php.ini` configuration file:

```ini
extension = hstorecpp.so # For Unix systems
```

#### PHP extension (Zephir)

The second extension is written in [Zephir](http://zephir-lang.com) thats why you should [install Zephir](http://zephir-lang.com/install.html) before extension compiling.

```bash
cd path/to/Intaro/HStoreBundle/Resources/zephir
zephir install
```

Finally, enable the extension in your `php.ini` configuration file:

```ini

```
