popen

(PHP 3, PHP 4 )

popen -- Opens process file pointer

Description

resource popen ( string command, string mode)

Opens a pipe to a process executed by forking the command given by command.

Returns a file pointer identical to that returned by fopen(), except that it is unidirectional (may only be used for reading or writing) and must be closed with pclose(). This pointer may be used with fgets(), fgetss(), and fputs().

If an error occurs, returns FALSE.

Замечание: If you're looking for bi-directional support (two-way), use proc_open().

Пример 1. popen() example

<?php
$handle = popen ("/bin/ls", "r");
?>

Замечание: If the command to be executed could not be found, a valid resource is returned. This may seem odd, but makes sense; it allows you to access any error message returned by the shell: 

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);

/* Add redirection so we can get stderr. */
$handle = popen('/path/to/spooge 2>&1', 'r');
echo "'$handle'; " . gettype($handle) . "\n";
$read = fread($handle, 2096);
echo $read;
pclose($handle);
?>
