Have you heard about PIE?
PECL is now deprecated. 🥧 PHP Installer for Extensions (PIE) is the replacement for PECL. We recommend publishing your extension using PIE instead.

PECL is a repository for PHP Extensions, providing a directory of all known extensions and hosting facilities for downloading and development of PHP extensions.
The packaging and distribution system used by PECL is shared with its sister, PEAR.
