Installation through apt on Debian/Ubuntu is the urrently the most simple way to get started.

Install the Tideways packages:

echo 'deb http://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/tideways/packages debian main' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tideways.list
wget -qO - https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/tideways/packages/EEB5E8F4.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tideways-daemon tideways-php tideways-cli

The post install hook for the tideways-php package detects your PHP installation and installs the correct version of the Tideways.

Don't forget to restart the webserver (apache2 with mod php) or php-fpm service to make the extension is loaded.

YUM/DNF

Preferred installation is through Yum or DNF.

echo "[tideways]
name = Tideways
baseurl = https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/tideways/rpm" > /etc/yum.repos.d/tideways.repo
rpm --import https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/tideways/packages/EEB5E8F4.gpg
yum makecache --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=tideways
yum install tideways-php tideways-cli tideways-daemon
Don't forget to restart the webserver (apache2 with mod php) or php-fpm service to make the extension is loaded.
