Install fileinfo php extension

Question

As the fileinfo is moved from PECL to PHP. What is the best way to install it through WHM or putty.?

I tried following command:

pecl install fileinfo
<

I encountered this, and needed to install php-fileinfo for WHM on a VPS Dedicated server. This https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/website/how-to-install-a-php-extension-using-easyapache-4/ was very helpful. I figured id post this for the next guy.
