Running PHP on Raspberry Pi

PHP is installed along with Git and WiringPi by: 

sudo apt-get install apache2 git-core php5
# or a more lightweight one
# sudo apt-get install lighttpd git-core php5
git clone git://git.drogon.net/wiringPi
cd wiringPi
./build
 
# Check the install
gpio -v
gpio readall

The LED.php script in the webroot can be like: 

<html>
    <head>
        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
        <title>LED Control</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        LED Control:
        <form method="get" action="gpio.php">
            <input type="submit" value="ON" name="on">
            <input type="submit" value="OFF" name="off">
        </form>
        <?php
            $setmode17 = shell_exec("/usr/local/bin/gpio -g mode 17 out");
            if(isset($_GET['on'])) {
                $gpio_on = shell_exec("/usr/local/bin/gpio -g write 17 1");
                echo "LED is on";
            }
            else if(isset($_GET['off'])) {
                $gpio_off = shell_exec("/usr/local/bin/gpio -g write 17 0");
                echo "LED is off";
            }
        ?>
    </body>

# RPi.GPIO Official Documentation http://sourceforge.net/p/raspberry-gpio-python/wiki/Home/
# PWM Usage: https://sourceforge.net/p/raspberry-gpio-python/wiki/PWM/

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO              # import RPi.GPIO module  

# choose BOARD or BCM
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)               # BCM for GPIO numbering
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BOARD)             # BOARD for P1 pin numbering

# Set up Inputs
GPIO.setup(port_or_pin, GPIO.IN)     # set port/pin as an input
GPIO.setup(port_or_pin, GPIO.IN,  pull_up_down=GPIO.PUD_DOWN) # input with pull-down
GPIO.setup(port_or_pin, GPIO.IN,  pull_up_down=GPIO.PUD_UP)   # input with pull-up 

# Set up Outputs
GPIO.setup(port_or_pin, GPIO.OUT)               # set port/pin as an output   
GPIO.setup(port_or_pin, GPIO.OUT, initial=1)    # set initial value option (1 or 0)

# Switch Outputs
GPIO.output(port_or_pin, 1)     # set an output port/pin value to 1/GPIO.HIGH/True  
GPIO.output(port_or_pin, 0)     # set an output port/pin value to 0/GPIO.LOW/False  

# Read status of inputs OR outputs
i = GPIO.input(port_or_pin)     # read status of pin/port and assign to variable i
if GPIO.input(port_or_pin):     # use input status directly in program logic

# Clean up on exit
GPIO.cleanup()

# What Raspberry Pi revision are we running?
GPIO.RPI_REVISION #  0 = Compute Module, 1 = Rev 1, 2 = Rev 2, 3 = Model B+

# What version of RPi.GPIO are we running?
GPIO.VERSION

# What Python version are we running?
import sys; sys.version
