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);
}
?>

file_put_contents — Veriyi bir dosyaya yazar
Açıklama
file_put_contents(
string
mixed
int
?resource
): int|false
string
$dosyaismi,mixed
$veri,int
$seçenekler = 0,?resource
$bağlam = null): int|false
Bu işlev, veriyi bir dosyaya yazmak için sırayla fopen(), fwrite() ve fclose() işlevlerinin çağrılmasına denk bir işlem yapar.
Eğer dosyaismi mevcut değilse dosya oluşturulur.
Aksi takdirde, FILE_APPEND seçeneği etkin değilse
veri mevcut dosyanın üzerine yazılır.
Değiştirgeler
-
dosyaismi -
Verinin yazılacağı dosyanın yolu.
-
veri -
Yazılacak veri. Bir dizi, bir dizge veya bir özkaynak olabilir.
Eğer
veribir akım özkaynağı ise tamponda kalan verinin tamamı dosyaya yazılır. Bu işlem, stream_copy_to_stream() kullanımına eşdğerdir.verideğiştirgesinde tek boyutlu bir dizi de belirtebilirsiniz. Bu takdirde yapılan işlemfile_put_contents(dosyaismi, implode('', $dizi))işlemine denktir. -
seçenekler -
İsteğe bağlı bu değiştirgede bazı kısıtlamalarla şu sabitlerden bir veya daha fazlasını ikil VEYA (|) ile birleştirerek belirtebilirsiniz:
Belirtilebilecek seçenekler Seçenet Açıklama FILE_USE_INCLUDE_PATHDosya include_path yönergesinde belirtilen yollarda aranır. FILE_APPENDEğer dosyaismidosyası mevcutsa veri dosyanın üzerine yazılmaz, sonuna eklenir.LOCK_EXYazma işlemi için dosya üzerinde ayrıcalıklı bir kilit edinilir. Başka bir deyişle, fopen() ve fwrite() çağrıları arasında bir flock() çağrısı yapılır. Bu, "x" kipiyle fopen() çağrısına denk değildir. -
bağlam -
stream_context_create() ile oluşturulmuş geçerli bir bağlam özkaynağı.
Dönen Değerler
İşlev, başarısızlık durumunda false, aksi takdirde dosyaya yazılan
baytların sayısı ile döner.
Uyarı
Bu işlev mantıksal false
değeriyle dönebileceği gibi false olarak değerlendirilebilecek mantıksal
olmayan bir değerle de dönebilir. Bu konuda daha fazla bilgi
Mantıksal Değerler bölümünde
bulunabilir. Bu işlevden dönen değeri sınamak için

işleci kullanılabilir.
Örnekler
Örnek 1 - Basit kullanım örneği
<?php
$file = 'people.txt';
// İçeriğini almak için dosyayı açalım
$içerik = file_get_contents($file);
// İçeriğe yeni bir kişi ekleyelim
$içerik .= "John Smith\n";
// İçeriği dosyaya yazalım
file_put_contents($file, $içerik);
?>
Örnek 2 - Seçenek kullanımı
<?php
$file = 'people.txt';
// Dosyaya eklenecek yeni kişi
$person = "John Smith\n";
// $person değişkeninin değerini $file dosyasına ekleyelim.
// FILE_APPEND veriyi dosyanın sonuna ekler.
// LOCK_EX aynı anda başka birinin başka bir şey yazmasını engeller.
file_put_contents($file, $person, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX);
?>
Notlar
Bilginize: Bu işlev ikil dosyalarla çalışırken dosya içeriğini değiştirmez.
İpucu
fopen sarmalayıcıları etkin kılınmışsa bu işlevde dosya ismi olarak bir URL belirtilebilir. Dosya isminin nasıl belirtilebileceği hakkında bilgi edinmek için fopen() işlevine bakılabilir. Sarmalayıcıların neler yapabildiği, kullanım bilgileri ve bunlar tarafından kullanılan öntanımlı değişkenler hakkında bilgi Desteklenen Protokoller ve Sarmalayıcılar bölümünde bulanabilir.
Ayrıca Bakınız
- fopen() - Bir dosya veya URL'yi açar
- fwrite() - Dosyaya ikil kipte yazar
- file_get_contents() - Dosya içeriğinin tamamını bir dizge olarak döndürür
- stream_context_create() - Bir akım bağlamı oluşturur

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

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);

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.

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;

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.

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;
}
}

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 "\n";
// close the FTP stream

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);

I had some troubles using file_put_contents with an absolute but no canonicalized path (eg. w:/htdocs/pri/../test/log.txt): on windows environment php was unable to create the file also using the realpath function .
I had to use fopen and frwite functions to write the data.

I wrote this script implementing the file_put_contents() and file_get_contents() functions to be compatible with both php4.* and php 5.*. It is a PHP Command line interface script which searches and replaces a specific word recursively through all files in the supplied directory hierarchy.

I faced the problem of converting a downloaded csv file that had Windows-1252 encoding, so to convert it to UTF-8 this worked for me:
$from = 'Windows-1252';
$to = 'UTF-8';
$content = file_get_contents($this->path());
file_put_contents($this->path(), mb_convert_encoding($content, $to, $from));
where "$this->path()" has the path of the file... Using this the file is converted from Windows-1252 to UTF-8.
With this you can import it with mysqlimport with no problems.

I'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);

Here is a stupid pitfall I just fell into.
I think it may happen rather frequently, so I report it.
A common situation is that the $filename argument is built from two variables:
file_put_contents($path . $file, $content);
Say that $path = 'path/to' and $file = 'file.txt': you see that $path lacks its ending "/", so the resulting full path is 'path/tofile.txt'.
Then you look at 'path/to' and don't see any 'file.txt', although no warning or notice was thrown!
And may be (like for me :D) it'll take time before you realize that a bad 'tofile.txt' was created in the *parent* directory of the one where you were looking for your file.

As to the previous user note, it would be wise to include that code within a conditional statement, as to prevent re-defining file_put_contents and the FILE_APPEND constant in PHP 5:
<?php
if ( !function_exists('file_put_contents') && !defined('FILE_APPEND') ) {
...
}
?>
Also, if the file could not be accessed for writing, the function should return boolean false, not 0. An error is different from 0 bytes written, in this case.

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 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)."\" />";

I use the following code to create a rudimentary text editor. It's not fancy, but then it doesn't have to be. You could easily add a parameter to specify a file to edit; I have not done so to avoid the potential security headaches.
There are still obvious security holes here, but for most applications it should be reasonably safe if implemented for brief periods in a counterintuitive spot. (Nobody says you have to make a PHP file for that purpose; you can tack it on anywhere, so long as it is at the beginning of a file.)
<?php
$random1 = 'randomly_generated_string';
$random2 = 'another_randomly_generated_string';
$target_file = 'file_to_edit.php';
$this_file = 'the_current_file.php';
if ($_REQUEST[$random1] === $random2) {
if (isset($_POST['content']))
file_put_contents($target_file, get_magic_quotes_qpc() ? stripslashes($_POST['content']) : $_POST['content']);
die('<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title>Editing...</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="' . $this_file . '" />
<input type="hidden" name="' . $random1 . '" value="' . $random2 . '" />
<textarea name="content" rows="50" cols="100">' . file_get_contents($target_file) . '</textarea><br />
<input type="submit" value="Save Changes" />
</form>
</body>
</html>');
}
?>
Then simply browse to hxxp://www.example.com/{$this_file}?{$random1}={$random2}, with the appropriate values substituted for each bracketed variable. Please note that this code assumes the target file to be world writable (-rw-rw-rw- or 666) and will fail to save properly without error if it is not.
Once again, this is by no means secure or permanent, but as a quick fix for brief edits to noncritical files it should be sufficient, and its small size is a definite bonus.

This php.net example could be confusing:
<?php
file_put_contents($file, $person, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX);
?>
You do not need LOCK_EX if you write only to a file (like log files). Multiple writing processes are already queued. Test it on your own by calling this script 4 times simultaneously:
<?php
function string_rand($len, $split="\n") {
return substr(chunk_split(bin2hex(openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(ceil($len / 2))), 1023, $split), 0, $len);
}
ini_set('memory_limit', '200M');
if (!file_put_contents('../cache4/file.txt', string_rand(102400000), FILE_APPEND)) {
exit('file_put_contents() error!');
}
clearstatcache();
echo 'filesize: ' . filesize('../cache4/file.txt') . PHP_EOL;
$fp = fopen('../cache4/file.txt', 'r');
if ($fp) {
while (($line = fgets($fp)) !== false) {
if (strlen($line) != 1024) {
exit('Line length error!');
}
}
fclose($fp);
}
?>
You will not see an error, the last called script needs the longest time (as it is the last one in the queue) and the final size will be 409600000 bytes as it should be.

why not ? file_put_contents('ftp://user:pass@server/path/to/file',$data);

This should also handle $filename from other than root and also $filename without path.
function file_force_contents($filename, $data, $per = 0755, $flags = 0) {
$fn = "";
if(substr($filename, 0, 1) === "/") $fn .= "/";
$parts = explode("/", $filename);
$file = array_pop($parts);
foreach($parts as $part) {
if(!is_dir($fn .= "$part")) mkdir($fn, $per, true);
$fn .= "/";
}
file_put_contents($fn.$file, $data, $flags);
}

There is a better way. www.php.net/touch
Since you're not adding anything to the file,
<?php
function updateFile($filename) {
if (!file_exists($filename)) return;
touch($filename);
}
?>

Log custom or error messages to a file.
<?php
class Logger{
protected $file;
protected $content;
protected $writeFlag;
protected $endRow;
public function __construct($file,$endRow="\n",$writeFlag=FILE_APPEND) {
$this->file=$file;
$this->writeFlag=$writeFlag;
$this->endRow=$endRow;
}
public function AddRow($content="",$newLines=1){
for ($m=0;$m<$newLines;$m++)
{
$newRow .= $this->endRow;
}
$this->content .= $content . $newRow;
}
public function Commit(){
return file_put_contents($this->file,$this->content,$this->writeFlag);
}
public function LogError($error,$newLines=1)
{
if ($error!=""){
$this->AddRow($error,$newLines);
echo $error;
}
}
}
$logFileDirectoryAndName="/yourDirectory/yourFileName.xxx";
$logger = new Logger($logFileDirectoryAndName);
$logger->AddRow("Your Log Message");
#log a system error and echo a message
$logger->LogError(mysql_error($conn));
$logger->Commit();
?>

if path to the file not exist function file_put_contents can't create it. This simple function make it on UNIX-based and Windows servers.
<?php
function file_put_contents_force(){
$args = func_get_args();
$path = str_replace(array('/','\\'), DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, $args[0]);
$parts = explode(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, $path);
array_pop($parts);
$directory = '';
foreach($parts as $part):
$check_path = $directory.$part;
if( is_dir($check_path.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR) === FALSE) {
mkdir($check_path, 0755);
}
$directory = $check_path.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;
endforeach;
call_user_func_array('file_put_contents',$args);
}
?>

If you need to read a file, process the contents, and then write the contents back, all inside a lock so that no other process can interfere, then you probably can't use file_put_contents in lock mode.
As a work around, you can consider trying the following code to do a file write (fwrite) inside of a file lock.
Play with the $overwriting= setting to switch from simply appending to completely overwriting.
<?php
// Tested in PHP7.0.18
$trackErrors = ini_get('track_errors');
ini_set('track_errors', 1);
$filename="c:/temp/test.txt";
if ( ! file_exists($filename) ) {
touch($filename);
}
$mode="r+";
$fh=fopen($filename, $mode);
if ( ! $fh ) {
echo "<LI style='color:red'>Failed to open $filename in $mode";
die();
}
if ( 1==1 ) {
flock($fh, LOCK_EX);
if ( 1==1 ) {
if (filesize($filename) > 0) {
$txt = fread($fh, filesize($filename));
echo "BEFORE:<OL>$txt</OL>";
}
else {
$txt = "empty";
}
$txt = "<LI>Date is now " . gmdate("Y-m-d H:i:s", time());
echo "<HR>WRITING:<OL>";
if ( 1==1 ) {
$overwrite = false;
if ($overwrite) {
echo "(Overwrite)<BR><BR>";
ftruncate($fh, 0);
// ftruncate is here as rewind will move the pointer
// to the beginning of the file and allow overwrite,
// but it will not remove existing content that
// extends beyond the length of the new write
rewind($fh);
}
else {
echo "(Appending)<BR><BR>";
}
if (fwrite($fh, $txt) == FALSE) {
echo "<LI style='color:red'>Failed to write to $filename";
die();
}
else {
echo "$txt";
}
fflush($fh);
}
echo "</OL>";
}
flock($fh, LOCK_UN);
}
fclose($fh);
// -------------------------------------------------------------------
echo "<HR>AFTER:<OL>";
if ( 1==2 ) {
// I've noticed that this block fails to pick up the newly
// written content when run with fread, but does work with
// the fgets logic below - possibly there is caching going on.
$mode = "r";
$fh2 = fopen($filename, $mode);
$contents = fread($fh2, filesize($filename));
echo "$contents";
fclose($fh2);
}
else {
$fh3 = fopen($filename, "r");
while (!feof($fh3)) {
$line = fgets($fh3);
echo $line;
}
fclose($fh3);
}
echo "</OL>";
echo "<HR>Fin";

NOTE : file_put_contents doesn't add a valid BOM while creating the file
<?php
$myFile = 'test.txt';
$myContent = 'I love PHP';
file_put_contents($myFile, "\xEF\xBB\xBF".$myContent);
?>

NOTE : file_put_contents create files UTF-8
<?php
$myFile = 'test.txt';
$myContent = 'I love PHP';
file_put_contents($myFile, utf8_encode($myContent));
?>

Under PHP7.0, I have seen that using an empty string as $data, the function returns FALSE instead of 0 as it should:
$data = ''
$size = file_put_contents($filename, $data, FILE_APPEND);
if ($size == FALSE)
{
echo "error writing file"
}
Code will give error when $data is an empty string even using == operator.
Hope it helps somebody...

This is example, how to save Error Array into simple log file
<?php
$error[] = 'some error';
$error[] = 'some error 2';
@file_put_contents('log.txt',date('c')."\n".implode("\n", $error),FILE_APPEND);
?>

This function doesn't return False if all data isn't write, especially when data is a stream resource
You must check yourself using return value.
<?php
$url = 'https://monsite.fr/image.png';
$size = filesize($url);
$written = file_put_contents('image.png', fopen($url, 'r'));
if ($size === false || $size != $written) {
die('Download failed');
}
?>
