- In your WordPress Managed offering, go to webssh of your SCM site - https://<app name>.scm.azurewebsites.net/webssh/host
- Install the GD extension with Webp support using the below command.
apk add --no-cache --virtual .build-deps autoconf pkgconfig gcc g++ gawk make zlib-dev libpng-dev libwebp-dev \
&& docker-php-ext-configure gd --with-webp \
&& docker-php-ext-install gd \
&& apk del .build-deps
Copy the newly installed gd.so file to a persistent file storage.
mkdir -p /home/dev/extensions
cp /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20200930/gd.so /home/dev/extensions/gd.so
- Now write a post-startup script to restore the updated copy of gd.so everytime the app starts.
Edit the startup script file in /home/dev directory using the below command:
vi /home/dev/startup.sh
Then add the following command to the startup.sh file and save it (type :wq to save).
cp /home/dev/extensions/gd.so /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20200930/gd.so
- Now restart your app from Azure Portal and you can upload a sample .webp image to test the changes.
