Installing the extension

Datadog’s PHP Tracing Library supports many of the most common PHP versions, PHP web frameworks, datastores, libraries, and more. Prior to installation, please check our latest compatibility requirements.

Installation from PECL (datadog_trace) or from source

Compilation of the tracer and the profiler requires cargo to be installed. Ensure that cargo is minimum version 1.71.0, otherwise follow the official instructions for installing cargo.
