Hey Greg,
This looks very promising. Great to see that you took those feedbacks
and really attacked them leading to a huge improvement in phar (should I
say night and day :) I think you've really accomplished a lot in these
few months.
Are there any docs which describe the transparent front controller
configuration? I'd love to take a look and give it a spin.
Hi,
I replied to Andi earlier, forgot to hit Reply-All, so I'll send this
again, but with a bit more detail.
These two links describe the main things needed:
http://docs.php.net/manual/en/phar.webphar.php
http://docs.php.net/manual/en/phar.interceptfilefuncs.php
Most apps would need both Phar::interceptFileFuncs() and
Phar::webPhar(). For instance, to get phpMyAdmin working, I downloaded
the tar.gz, and ran this script (it assumes you've got an insecure mysql
with root having no password, so change that if you don't, and you
should change the absolute paths to the right location):
<?php
chdir('/home/cellog/testapache/htdocs');
@unlink('phpMyAdmin.phar.tar.php');
copy('phpMyAdmin-2.11.3-english.tar.gz', 'phpMyAdmin.phar.tar.php');
$a = new Phar('phpMyAdmin.phar.tar.php');
var_dump(count($a));
$a->startBuffering();
$a["phpMyAdmin-2.11.3-english/config.inc.php"] = '<?php
/* Servers configuration */
$i = 0;
/* Server localhost (config:root) [1] */
$i++;
$cfg[\'Servers\'][$i][\'host\'] = \'localhost\';
$cfg[\'Servers\'][$i][\'extension\'] = \'mysqli\';
$cfg[\'Servers\'][$i][\'connect_type\'] = \'tcp\';
$cfg[\'Servers\'][$i][\'compress\'] = false;
$cfg[\'Servers\'][$i][\'auth_type\'] = \'config\';
$cfg[\'Servers\'][$i][\'user\'] = \'root\';
$cfg[\'Servers\'][$i][\'password\'] = \'\';
/* End of servers configuration */
if (strpos(PHP_OS, \'WIN\') !== false) {
$cfg[\'UploadDir\'] = getcwd();
} else {
$cfg[\'UploadDir\'] = \'/tmp/pharphpmyadmin\';
@mkdir(\'/tmp/pharphpmyadmin\');
@chmod(\'/tmp/pharphpmyadmin\', 0777);
}';
$a->setStub('<?php
Phar::interceptFileFuncs();
Phar::webPhar("phpMyAdmin.phar.tar.php",
"phpMyAdmin-2.11.3-english/index.php");
echo "phpMyAdmin is intended to be executed from a web browser\n";
exit -1;
__HALT_COMPILER();
');
$a->stopBuffering();
?>
After doing this, you can copy phpMyAdmin.phar.tar.php to any location
in your document root and browse to it, and it should pop up the
familiar app, barring some bug we haven't encountered yet :).
