I=E2=80=99ve never tried it but there=E2=80=99s a PHP package at:

  https://github.com/mnd/guix-mnd-pkgs

We would be happy to integrate a recipe for PHP in Guix proper.  It=E2=80=
=99s a
matter of following the contribution check list at
<https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Submitting-Patches.html=
>,
and we=E2=80=99d be happy to help with that process.

Providing a PHP service definition for GuixSD needs more discussion.
I=E2=80=99m personally not well versed in Web services but I know others on=
 the
list are so hopefully they can provide some guidance.

The documentation for GuixSD services is at
<https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Defining-Services.html>.

HTH!
