File streaming in PHP - How to replicate this C#.net code in PHP?
- by openid_kenja
I'm writing an interface to a web service where we need to upload configuration files. The documentation only provides a sample in C#.net which I am not familiar with. I'm trying to implement this in PHP.
Can someone familiar with both languages point me in the right direction? I can figure out all the basics, but I'm trying to figure out suitable PHP replacements for the FileStream, ReadBytes, and UploadDataFile functions. I believe that the RecService object contains the URL for the web service. Thanks for your help!
private void UploadFiles() {
clientAlias = “<yourClientAlias>”;
string filePath = “<pathToYourDataFiles>”;
string[] fileList = {"Config.txt", "ProductDetails.txt", "BrandNames.txt", "CategoryNames.txt", "ProductsSoldOut.txt", "Sales.txt"};
RecommendClient RecService = new RecommendClient();
for (int i = 0; i < fileList.Length; i++) {
bool lastFile = (i == fileList.Length - 1); //start generator after last file
try {
string fileName = filePath + fileList[i];
if (!File.Exists(fileName))
continue; // file not found
}
// set up a file stream and binary reader for the selected file and convert to byte array
FileStream fStream = new FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read); BinaryReader br = new BinaryReader(fStream);
byte[] data = br.ReadBytes((int)numBytes); br.Close();
// pass byte array to the web service
string result = RecService.UploadDataFile(clientAlias, fileList[i], data, lastFile); fStream.Close(); fStream.Dispose();
} catch (Exception ex) {
// log an error message
}
}
}
