Hi, A quick update on Phar's API for those who are keeping score:
1) Phar->isWritable() now works properly and does what Liz was hoping: tells you whether you can actually modify the phar archive by looking at the archive's file perms as well as phar.readonly 2) PharFileInfo->getContent() added to retrieve file contents like $phar['a.txt']->getContent() 3) addFile/addFromString/addEmptyDir added to match ext/zip API 4) fixed compression API. Here are the new methods: bool Phar->isCompressed([int compression]) // takes Phar::GZ, Phar::BZ2 or no parameter to check for any whole-archive compression Phar|PharData Phar->compress(int compression[, string ext]) // takes Phar::GZ/Phar::BZ2 and optional file extension to override default renaming Phar|PharData Phar->decompress([, string ext]) // takes optional file extension to override default renaming bool Phar->compressFiles(int compression) // takes Phar::GZ/Phar::BZ2 and compressed all files within the archive bool Phar->decompressFiles() // decompress all files within the archive Phar Phar->convertToExecutable([int format[, int compression[, string ext]]]) PharData Phar->convertToData([int format[, int compression[, string ext]]]) // takes Phar::TAR, Phar::ZIP, or Phar::PHAR as format // takes Phar::GZ, Phar::BZ2 as compression // optional file extension to override default renaming PharFileInfo->isCompressed([int compression]) // takes Phar::GZ, Phar::BZ2 or no parameter to check for any compression of file within the archive PharFileInfo->compress(int compression) // Phar::GZ/Phar::BZ2 PharFileInfo->decompress() Here's code example of the new API: <?php $phar = new Phar('blah.phar'); $tar = $phar->convertToData(Phar::TAR); // creates blah.tar $tgz = $tar->compress(Phar::GZ); // creates blah.tar.gz $phargz = $tar->convertToExecutable(Phar::PHAR, Phar::GZ, '.gz.phar'); // creates blah.gz.phar (default would be blah.phar.gz) var_dump($tgz->isCompressed(), $tgz->isCompressed(Phar::GZ), $tgz->isCompressed(Phar::BZ2)); // true, true, false $phar['a.txt'] = 'hi'; echo $phar['a.txt']->getContent(); // "hi" $phar->compressFiles(Phar::GZ); // internal files compressed with zlib compression var_dump($phar['a.txt']->isCompressed(), $phar['a.txt']->isCompressed(Phar::GZ), $phar['a.txt']->isCompressed(Phar::BZ2)); // true, true, false $phar['a.txt']->decompress(); // now this specific file is not compressed within the archive $phar->decompressFiles(); // internal files decompressed $phar['a.txt']->compress(Phar::BZ2); // now this specific file is compressed with bzip2 compression $tar2 = $tgz->decompress('.2.tar'); // creates blah.2.tar $phartar2 = $tar2->convertToExecutable(); // create blah.2.phar.tar ?> Thanks, Greg -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
