I'm trying to download users profile picture from facebook in PHP using this function
public static function downloadFile($url, $options = array())
{
if (!is_array($options))
$options = array();
$options = array_merge(array(
'connectionTimeout' => 5, // seconds
'timeout' => 10, // seconds
'sslVerifyPeer' => false,
'followLocation' => true, // if true, limit recursive redirection by
'maxRedirs' => 2, // setting value for "maxRedirs"
), $options);
// create a temporary file (we are assuming that we can write to the system's temporary directory)
$tempFileName = tempnam(sys_get_temp_dir(), '');
$fh = fopen($tempFileName, 'w');
$curl = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FILE, $fh);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $options['connectionTimeout']);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, $options['timeout']);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, $options['sslVerifyPeer']);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, $options['followLocation']);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, $options['maxRedirs']);
curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);
fclose($fh);
return $tempFileName;
}
The problem is it saves the file in the /tmp directory with a random name and without the extension. How can I get the original name of the file (I'm more interested in the original extension)
The important things here are:
The url actually redirects to image so i cant get it from original url
the final url does not have the file name in headers
