parse_ini_string_m is analog for a parse_ini_string function.
had to code this function due to the lack of a php 5.3 on some hosting.
parse_ini_string_m:
- ignores commented lines that start with ";" or "#"
- ignores broken lines that do not have "="
- supports array values and array value keys
<?php
function parse_ini_string_m($str) {
if(empty($str)) return false;
$lines = explode("\n", $str);
$ret = Array();
$inside_section = false;
foreach($lines as $line) {
$line = trim($line);
if(!$line || $line[0] == "#" || $line[0] == ";") continue;
if($line[0] == "[" && $endIdx = strpos($line, "]")){
$inside_section = substr($line, 1, $endIdx-1);
continue;
}
if(!strpos($line, '=')) continue;
$tmp = explode("=", $line, 2);
if($inside_section) {
$key = rtrim($tmp[0]);
$value = ltrim($tmp[1]);
if(preg_match("/^\".*\"$/", $value) || preg_match("/^'.*'$/", $value)) {
$value = mb_substr($value, 1, mb_strlen($value) - 2);
}
$t = preg_match("^\[(.*?)\]^", $key, $matches);
if(!empty($matches) && isset($matches[0])) {
$arr_name = preg_replace('#\[(.*?)\]#is', '', $key);
if(!isset($ret[$inside_section][$arr_name]) || !is_array($ret[$inside_section][$arr_name])) {
$ret[$inside_section][$arr_name] = array();
}
if(isset($matches[1]) && !empty($matches[1])) {
$ret[$inside_section][$arr_name][$matches[1]] = $value;
} else {
$ret[$inside_section][$arr_name][] = $value;
}
} else {
$ret[$inside_section][trim($tmp[0])] = $value;
}
} else {
$ret[trim($tmp[0])] = ltrim($tmp[1]);
}
}
return $ret;
}
?>
example usage:
<?php
$ini = '
[simple]
val_one = "some value"
val_two = 567
[array]
val_arr[] = "arr_elem_one"
val_arr[] = "arr_elem_two"
val_arr[] = "arr_elem_three"
[array_keys]
val_arr_two[6] = "key_6"
val_arr_two[some_key] = "some_key_value"
';
$arr = parse_ini_string_m($ini);
?>
variable $arr output:
Array
(
[simple] => Array
(
[val_one] => some value
[val_two] => 567
)
[array] => Array
(
[val_arr] => Array
(
[0] => arr_elem_one
[1] => arr_elem_two
[2] => arr_elem_three
)
)
[array_keys] => Array
(
[val_arr_two] => Array
(
[6] => key_6
[some_key] => some_key_value
)
)
)
parse_ini_string
(PHP 5 >= 5.3.0)
parse_ini_string — Analiza una cadena de configuración
Descripción
$ini
[, bool $process_sections = false
[, int $scanner_mode = INI_SCANNER_NORMAL
]] )
parse_ini_string() devuelve las configuraciones de la cadena
ini a una matriz asociativa.
La estructura de la cadena ini es la misma que la de php.ini.
Parámetros
-
ini -
El contenido del archivo ini que va a ser analizado.
-
process_sections -
Al establecer el parámetro
process_sectionsaTRUE, se obtiene una matriz multidimesional, con los nombres de las secciones y las configuraciones incluidas. El valor por defecto deprocess_sectionsesFALSE -
scanner_mode -
Puede ser o
INI_SCANNER_NORMAL(por defecto) oINI_SCANNER_RAW. SiINI_SCANNER_RAWes proporcionado, los valores de las opciones no serán analizadas.
Valores devueltos
Las configuraciones son devueltas como un array asociativo si se tiene éxito,
y FALSE si falla.
Notas
Nota: Hay palabras reservadas que no se deben usar como claves en los archivos ini. Éstas incluyen: null, yes, no, true, false, on, off, none. Los valores null, no y false resultan en "", yes y true resultan en "1". Los caracteres ?{}|&~![()^" no se deben usar en ningún lugar de la clave y tienen un significado especial en el valor.
If your server has yet not been updated to PHP 5.2 (like mine), the following function can help you without having to use temporary paths.
I tried to make it the more similar possible to the PHP's behaviour, including dealing with errors or exceptions.
<?php
if(!function_exists('parse_ini_string')){
function parse_ini_string($str, $ProcessSections=false){
$lines = explode("\n", $str);
$return = Array();
$inSect = false;
foreach($lines as $line){
$line = trim($line);
if(!$line || $line[0] == "#" || $line[0] == ";")
continue;
if($line[0] == "[" && $endIdx = strpos($line, "]")){
$inSect = substr($line, 1, $endIdx-1);
continue;
}
if(!strpos($line, '=')) // (We don't use "=== false" because value 0 is not valid as well)
continue;
$tmp = explode("=", $line, 2);
if($ProcessSections && $inSect)
$return[$inSect][trim($tmp[0])] = ltrim($tmp[1]);
else
$return[trim($tmp[0])] = ltrim($tmp[1]);
}
return $return;
}
}
?>
Function parse_ini_file doesn't parse a remote ini file if allow_url_include is off. But if allow_url_fopen is on, you can use parse_ini_string to parse a remote ini file after read its contents.
<?php
/**
* Assume that; allow_url_include=0 and allow_url_fopen=1
* (default values in php.ini)
*/
$iniUrl = 'http://example.com/remote/config.ini';
/**
* Warning: parse_ini_file(): http:// wrapper is disabled in the server configuration by allow_url_include=0
*/
$config = parse_ini_file($iniUrl);
/**
* works fine
*/
$config = parse_ini_string(file_get_contents($iniUrl));
?>
If you want to use something like this on a PHP version below that of PHP 5.3, you can emulate it roughly by doing something like this:
<?php
if(!function_exists('parse_ini_string'))
{
function parse_ini_string($ini, $process_sections = false, $scanner_mode = null)
{
# Generate a temporary file.
$tempname = tempnam('/tmp', 'ini');
$fp = fopen($tempname, 'w');
fwrite($fp, $ini);
$ini = parse_ini_file($tempname, !empty($process_sections));
fclose($fp);
@unlink($tempname);
return $ini;
}
}
?>
May not be the most efficient way (I suppose you could do some regex stuff instead...) but it certainly works!
<?php
# Define parse_ini_string if it doesn't exist.
# Does accept lines starting with ; as comments
# Does not accept comments after values
if( !function_exists('parse_ini_string') ){
function parse_ini_string( $string ) {
$array = Array();
$lines = explode("\n", $string );
foreach( $lines as $line ) {
$statement = preg_match(
"/^(?!;)(?P<key>[\w+\.\-]+?)\s*=\s*(?P<value>.+?)\s*$/", $line, $match );
if( $statement ) {
$key = $match[ 'key' ];
$value = $match[ 'value' ];
# Remove quote
if( preg_match( "/^\".*\"$/", $value ) || preg_match( "/^'.*'$/", $value ) ) {
$value = mb_substr( $value, 1, mb_strlen( $value ) - 2 );
}
$array[ $key ] = $value;
}
}
return $array;
}
}
?>
