How do I make the ImageMagick Imagick class available?

This is really an amateur question, but I installed ImageMagick from ports on my FreeBSD.

However, when I use

$image = new Imagick($filename);

I get:

Fatal error: class "Imagick" not found in /usr/local/www/test.php on line 1

How do I make this class scriptable?

You have installed the ImageMagick suite itself, which does not provide any interface to PHP. You also need to install the PECL Imagick extension extension .



FreeBSD has a port for this - graphics/pecl-imagick

.

You will also need to get / create an accompanying PHP library that interacts with Image Magick. Then add it to your php.ini with something like:

extension=php5-imagick.so

There is also an OS X / Darwin port here .
