## Installing ImageMagick on CentOS
sudo yum install -y gcc php-devel php-pear
sudo yum install -y ImageMagick ImageMagick-devel
sudo yum install php-pear gcc
sudo yum install ImageMagick ImageMagick-devel ImageMagick-perl
sudo pecl install Imagick
sudo echo extension=imagick.so >> /etc/php.ini
sudo service httpd restart
sudo php -m | grep imagick
