README
This repository is the PIE (PHP Installer for Extensions) companion package for the PDO_SQLSRV driver, part of the Microsoft Drivers for PHP for SQL Server. PIE is the official replacement for PECL, which is now deprecated.
Install
pie install microsoft/pdo_sqlsrv
pdo_sqlsrv builds on PHP's PDO extension, so PDO must be available (it ships
with PHP by default). PIE enforces this via the ext-pdo requirement.
PIE installation is currently supported on Linux and macOS. On Windows, use the pre-built DLLs shipped with the main driver releases.
