Install phantomjs in shared Host

In this post, we show you how to install phantomjs in shared hosting. Developers searching to install phantomjs in many shared hosting companies. Unfortunately, they don't support this type of installation on shared hosting plans. Read the post to install your phantomjs in your shared host.

       In this tutorial, I purchased a shared hosting plan. So we don't have the access to root. Before you read must have the knowledge in the FTP access to your site.

    Open your SSH client Putty. Then log in to your server using username and password. When the access is ready we have to change the directory without fear for access problem.  
cd ~
    Type in the terminal as for downloading the phantomjs.
wget https://phantomjs.googlecode.com/files/phantomjs-1.9.1-linux-i686.tar.bz2
We must have to extract the compressed file 
tar xvf phantomjs-1.9.1-linux-i686.tar.bz2 
     Now we have the file in the directory with the name "phantomjs-1.9.1-linux-i686". Note this name. Login to your account and open your web root directory to call your phantomjs functions. Create a PHP file. Name the PHP file as you like. Here for example I called it as demp.php. And type following-  
<?php
exec ('/var/chroot/home/content/12/11235678/phantomjs-1.9.1-linux-i686/bin/phantomjs -v 2<&1', $o, $e);
print_r($o);
print_r($e);
?> 
    Now you will get the version of the phantomjs installed. You have the confusion about the path of phantomjs, you can get your directory of number(12/11235678) from your account's settings page. Or for getting path use "cd" and "dir" command for getting all file paths.
