Adding PHP Extensions
Nitro is no longer supported. Please see our announcement and DDEV migration guide.
The Docker images Nitro use the craftcms/nginx:<php-version>-dev (opens new window). These images are preconfigured with the PHP extensions required for Craft CMS and Commerce. However, there are times you may need to install additional extensions for a site.
To enable an extension for a site, run the following command:
$ nitro extensions
Select a site:
1. craft-support.nitro
2. another-site.nitro
3. plugins-dev.nitro
4. tutorial.nitro
Enter your selection: 1
Which PHP extension would you like to enable for craft-support.nitro?

2. bz2
3. calendar
4. dba
5. enchant
