I have High Sierra OS - Version 10.13.6 PHP Version: PHP 7.1.9

when I try to do command php -v always appear error like this:

PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/local/php5-7.1.9-20170914-100859/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20160303/imagick.so' - dlopen(/usr/local/php5-7.1.9-20170914-100859/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20160303/imagick.so, 9): Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/imagemagick/lib/libMagickWand-7.Q16HDRI.5.dylib

AFAIK, my php.ini failed to load imagick library. I already install Imagick with brew, there is a file imagick.so inside folder /usr/local/php5-7.1.9-20170914-100859/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20160303/.

I already search many sources for this issue, I found many similar issues too in StackOverflow, it seems similar to mine but still not fixed my issue.

I can still run PHP script obviously, but cannot do some manipulation image with Imagick.
