Deploying a custom PHP app to the App Platform

Posted on August 14, 2021

I have a custom PHP 7.4 app that’s written without using a framework or CMS. It connects to a MySQL database. Is there some tutorial on how to deploy to App Platform ?

Hi @anjanesh,

Yes, there is official documentation on App Platform and how to create an App for PHP. What you can check is the following:

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/app-platform/languages-frameworks/php/

Additionally, if this is not what you were looking for, you can check the Build System section where you can choose PHP - App Platform PHP Buildpack:

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/app-platform/build-system/cloud-native-buildpacks/php/

Hope this helps!
