(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
file_put_contents — Escribe datos en un fichero
$filename,$data,$flags = 0,$context = nullEquivale a llamar a las funciones fopen(), fwrite() y fclose() sucesivamente.
Si el fichero filename no existe, será creado.
De lo contrario, el fichero existente será sobrescrito, a menos que
la opción FILE_APPEND esté definida.
filenameRuta de acceso al fichero en el que se deben escribir los datos.
dataLos datos a escribir. Puede ser un string, un array o un recurso de flujo (explicación más abajo).
Si data es un recurso de tipo stream,
el buffer restante de este flujo será copiado al fichero especificado.
Esto equivale a utilizar la función stream_copy_to_stream().
Asimismo, puede especificarse el argumento data
como un array de una sola dimensión. Esto equivale a
file_put_contents($filename, implode('', $array)).
flags
El valor del argumento flags puede ser cualquier
combinación de los siguientes flags, unidos por el operador OR binario
(|).
| Flag | Descripción |
|---|---|
FILE_USE_INCLUDE_PATH
|
Busca el fichero filename en el directorio de inclusión.
Ver include_path
para más información.
|
FILE_APPEND
|
Si el fichero filename ya existe,
esta opción permite añadir los datos al fichero en lugar de sobrescribirlo.
|
LOCK_EX
|
Adquiere un bloqueo exclusivo sobre el fichero durante la operación de escritura. En otras palabras, se realiza una llamada a la función flock() entre la llamada a la función fopen() y la llamada a la función fwrite(). Este comportamiento no es idéntico a una llamada a la función fopen() con el modo "x". |
contextUn recurso de contexto válido creado con la función stream_context_create().
Devuelve el número de bytes que han sido escritos al fichero, o false
si ocurre un error.
Esta función puede retornar false, pero también puede retornar un valor equivalente a false.
Por favor, lea la sección sobre los booleanos para más información.
Utilice el operador ===
para probar el valor de retorno exacto de esta función.
Ejemplo #1 Uso simple de file_put_contents
<?php
$file = 'people.txt';
// Abre un fichero para leer un contenido existente
$current = file_get_contents($file);
// Añade una persona
$current .= "Jean Dupond\n";
// Escribe el resultado en el fichero
file_put_contents($file, $current);
?>Ejemplo #2 Uso de opciones para file_put_contents
<?php
$file = 'people.txt';
// Una nueva persona a añadir
$person = "Jean Dupond\n";
// Escribe el contenido en el fichero, utilizando el flag
// FILE_APPEND para añadir al final del fichero y
// LOCK_EX para evitar que otros escriban en el fichero
// al mismo tiempo
file_put_contents($file, $person, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX);
?>Nota: Esta función maneja strings binarios.
Puede utilizar una URL como nombre de archivo con esta función, si el gestor fopen ha sido activado. Véase fopen() para más detalles sobre cómo especificar el nombre del archivo. Consulte Protocolos y Envolturas soportados para más información sobre las capacidades de los diferentes gestores, las notas sobre su uso, así como la información sobre las variables predefinidas que proporcionan.
File put contents fails if you try to put a file in a directory that doesn't exist. This creates the directory.
<?php
function file_force_contents($dir, $contents){
$parts = explode('/', $dir);
$file = array_pop($parts);
$dir = '';
foreach($parts as $part)
if(!is_dir($dir .= "/$part")) mkdir($dir);
file_put_contents("$dir/$file", $contents);
}
?>It should be obvious that this should only be used if you're making one write, if you are writing multiple times to the same file you should handle it yourself with fopen and fwrite, the fclose when you are done writing.
Benchmark below:
file_put_contents() for 1,000,000 writes - average of 3 benchmarks:
real 0m3.932s
user 0m2.487s
sys 0m1.437s
fopen() fwrite() for 1,000,000 writes, fclose() - average of 3 benchmarks:
real 0m2.265s
user 0m1.819s
sys 0m0.445sA slightly simplified version of the method: http://php.net/manual/ru/function.file-put-contents.php#84180
<?php
function file_force_contents( $fullPath, $contents, $flags = 0 ){
$parts = explode( '/', $fullPath );
array_pop( $parts );
$dir = implode( '/', $parts );
if( !is_dir( $dir ) )
mkdir( $dir, 0777, true );
file_put_contents( $fullPath, $contents, $flags );
}
file_force_contents( ROOT.'/newpath/file.txt', 'message', LOCK_EX );
?>It's important to understand that LOCK_EX will not prevent reading the file unless you also explicitly acquire a read lock (shared locked) with the PHP 'flock' function.
i.e. in concurrent scenarios file_get_contents may return empty if you don't wrap it like this:
<?php
$myfile=fopen('test.txt','rt');
flock($myfile,LOCK_SH);
$read=file_get_contents('test.txt');
fclose($myfile);
?>
If you have code that does a file_get_contents on a file, changes the string, then re-saves using file_put_contents, you better be sure to do this correctly or your file will randomly wipe itself out.Please note that when saving using an FTP host, an additional stream context must be passed through telling PHP to overwrite the file.
<?php
/* set the FTP hostname */
$user = "test";
$pass = "myFTP";
$host = "example.com";
$file = "test.txt";
$hostname = $user . ":" . $pass . "@" . $host . "/" . $file;
/* the file content */
$content = "this is just a test.";
/* create a stream context telling PHP to overwrite the file */
$options = array('ftp' => array('overwrite' => true));
$stream = stream_context_create($options);
/* and finally, put the contents */
file_put_contents($hostname, $content, 0, $stream);
?>In reply to the previous note:
If you want to emulate this function in PHP4, you need to return the bytes written as well as support for arrays, flags.
I can only figure out the FILE_APPEND flag and array support. If I could figure out "resource context" and the other flags, I would include those too.
<?
define('FILE_APPEND', 1);
function file_put_contents($n, $d, $flag = false) {
$mode = ($flag == FILE_APPEND || strtoupper($flag) == 'FILE_APPEND') ? 'a' : 'w';
$f = @fopen($n, $mode);
if ($f === false) {
return 0;
} else {
if (is_array($d)) $d = implode($d);
$bytes_written = fwrite($f, $d);
fclose($f);
return $bytes_written;
}
}
?>Make sure not to corrupt anything in case of failure.
<?php
function file_put_contents_atomically($filename, $data, $flags = 0, $context = null) {
if (file_put_contents($filename."~", $data, $flags, $context) === strlen($contents)) {
return rename($filename."~",$filename,$context);
}
@unlink($filename."~", $context);
return FALSE;
}
?>This functionality is now implemented in the PEAR package PHP_Compat.
More information about using this function without upgrading your version of PHP can be found on the below link:
http://pear.php.net/package/PHP_CompatI'm updating a function that was posted, as it would fail if there was no directory. It also returns the final value so you can determine if the actual file was written.
public static function file_force_contents($dir, $contents){
$parts = explode('/', $dir);
$file = array_pop($parts);
$dir = '';
foreach($parts as $part) {
if (! is_dir($dir .= "{$part}/")) mkdir($dir);
}
return file_put_contents("{$dir}{$file}", $contents);
}A more simplified version of the method that creates subdirectories:
function path_put_contents($filePath, $contents, $flags = 0) {
if (! is_dir($dir = implode('/', explode('/', $filePath, -1))))
mkdir($dir, 0777, true);
file_put_contents($filePath, $contents, $flags);
}Calling file_put_contents within a destructor will cause the file to be written in SERVER_ROOT...To upload file from your localhost to any FTP server.
pease note 'ftp_chdir' has been used instead of putting direct remote file path....in ftp_put ...remoth file should be only file name
<?php
$host = '*****';
$usr = '*****';
$pwd = '**********';
$local_file = './orderXML/order200.xml';
$ftp_path = 'order200.xml';
$conn_id = ftp_connect($host, 21) or die ("Cannot connect to host");
ftp_pasv($resource, true);
ftp_login($conn_id, $usr, $pwd) or die("Cannot login");
// perform file upload
ftp_chdir($conn_id, '/public_html/abc/');
$upload = ftp_put($conn_id, $ftp_path, $local_file, FTP_ASCII);
if($upload) { $ftpsucc=1; } else { $ftpsucc=0; }
// check upload status:
print (!$upload) ? 'Cannot upload' : 'Upload complete';
print "\n";
// close the FTP stream
ftp_close($conn_id);
?>It's worth noting that you must make sure to use the correct path when working with this function. I was using it to help with logging in an error handler and sometimes it would work - while other times it wouldn't. In the end it was because sometimes it was called from different paths resulting in a failure to write to the log file.
__DIR__ is your friend.File put contents fails if you try to put a file in a directory that doesn't exist. This function creates the directory.
i have updated code of "TrentTompkins at gmail dot com". thanks

function file_force_contents($filename, $data, $flags = 0){

mkdir(dirname($filename).'/', 0777, TRUE);
return file_put_contents($filename, $data,$flags);
}
// usage
file_force_contents('test1.txt','test1 content'); // test1.txt created
file_force_contents('test2/test2.txt','test2 content');
// test2/test2.txt created "test2" folder.
file_force_contents('~/test3/test3.txt','test3 content');

?>I use file_put_contents() as a method of very simple hit counters. These are two different examples of extremely simple hit counters, put on one line of code, each.
Keep in mind that they're not all that efficient. You must have a file called counter.txt with the initial value of 0.
For a text hit counter:
<?php
$counter = file_get_contents("counter.txt"); $counter++; file_put_contents("counter.txt", $counter); echo $counter;
?>
Or a graphic hit counter:
<?php
$counter = file_get_contents("counter.txt"); $counter++; file_put_contents("counter.txt", $counter); for($i = 0; $i < strlen($counter); $i++) echo "<img src=\"counter/".substr($counter, $i, 1).".gif\" alt=\"".substr($counter, $i, 1)."\" />";
?>file_put_contents() strips the last line ending
If you really want an extra line ending at the end of a file when writing with file_put_contents(), you must append an extra PHP_EOL to the end of the line as follows.
<?php
$a_str = array("these","are","new","lines");
$contents = implode(PHP_EOL, $a_str);
$contents .= PHP_EOL . PHP_EOL;
file_put_contents("newfile.txt", $contents);
print("|$contents|");
?>
You can see that when you print $contents you get two extra line endings, but if you view the file newfile.txt, you only get one.I suggest to expand file_force_contents() function of TrentTompkins at gmail dot com by adding verification if patch is like: "../foo/bar/file"
if (strpos($dir, "../") === 0)
$dir = str_replace("..", substr(__DIR__, 0, strrpos(__DIR__, "/")), $dir);file_put_contents does not issue an error message if file name is incorrect(for example has improper symbols on the end of it /n,/t)
that is why use trim() for file name.
$name=trim($name);
file_put_contents($name,$content);An improved and enraptured code from TrentTompkins at gmail dot com
Note: Added error response
Note: Added directory detection
Note: Added root detection
Note: Added permissions when creating folder
function file_force_contents($dir, $contents, $flags = 0){
if (strpos($dir, "../") === 0){
$dir = str_replace("..", substr(__DIR__, 0, strrpos(__DIR__, "/")), $dir);
}
$parts = explode('/', $dir);
if(is_array($parts)){
$file = array_pop($parts);
$dir = '';
foreach($parts as $part)
if(!is_dir($dir .= "/$part")){
mkdir($dir, 0777, true);
}
if(file_put_contents("$dir/$file", $contents, $flags) === false ){
return false;
}

return false;
