HipHop VM for PHP Build Status

HipHop VM (HHVM) is a new open-source virtual machine designed for executing programs written in PHP. HHVM uses a just-in-time compilation approach to achieve superior performance while maintaining the flexibility that PHP developers are accustomed to. HipHop VM (and before it HPHPc) has realized > 5x increase in throughput for Facebook compared with Zend PHP 5.2.

HipHop is most commonly run as a standalone server, replacing both Apache and modphp.

Installing

You can install a prebuilt package or compile from source.

Running

You can run standalone programs just by passing them to hhvm: hhvm my_script.php.

HipHop bundles in a webserver. So if you want to run on port 80 in the current directory:

sudo hhvm -m server

For anything more complicated, you'll want to make a config.hdf and run sudo hhvm -m server -c config.hdf.

Contributing

We'd love to have your help in making HipHop better. If you run into problems, please open an issue, or better yet, fork us and send a pull request. Join us on #hhvm on freenode.

If you want to help but don't know where to start, try fixing some of the Zend tests that don't pass. You can run them with hphp/test/run. When they work, move them to zend/good and send a pull request.

All the open issues tagged Zend incompatibility are real issues reported by the community in existing PHP code and frameworks that could use some attention. Please add appropriate test cases as you make changes; see here for more information. Travis-CI is integrated with this GitHub project and will provide test results automatically on all pulls.

Before changes can be accepted a Contributors Licensing Agreement (pdf - print, sign, scan, link) must be signed.
