CHAPTER 12 – Building PEAR Components – UPLOADING

The final step is to actually submit the code to the pear.php.net site.  

Upload Release When you have tested your release thoroughly and it is ready for publication, go to http://pear.php.net/release-upload.php to upload it. When the upload is complete, the PEAR web site runs some sanity checks on your package and displays a verification screen. Check the information pre- sented carefully before clicking "Verify Release." After you verify the release, it is published.  

Finished! Congratulations, you have just published a PEAR release! It will appear in the "Recent Releases" column on http://pear.php.net/ and an announcement email will go out to pear-announce@lists.php.net.  

SUMMARY The goal of this chapter is to make you able to work with the PEAR standards and infrastructure, making you a contributor to the package repositories at pear.php.net and pecl.php.net, or to enable you to set up a distribution infra- structure within your organization.
