Ansible Role: PHP-XHProf

This role installs PHP XHProf on Linux servers.

Note: The XHProf extension hasn't been actively developed since Facebook stopped updating it around 2015. If you need to work with the latest PHP versions, consider using a well-maintained version called Tideways. There's also an Ansible role for Tideways—check out geerlingguy.php-tideways.

Requirements

No special requirements.
