Preparing a PHP Development Environment

To use the PHP SDK of Content Moderation, you need to configure the PHP development environment.

  1. Download PHP of a proper version from PHP official website and install it. The php.7.x version is recommended for the Content Moderation SDK. The following uses the PHP 7.0.32 version as an example.
    • The PHP installation directory cannot contain Chinese characters or special characters.
    • In the Windows operating system, if you run the php –v command, the command output indicates that the specified module cannot be found, check whether the extension_dir and include_path parameters in the php.ini file are correctly set.
