BetterPHP PHP Library

[EcazS]

<?php
function download($url, $save_to){
    if(file_put_contents($save_to, file_get_contents($url))){
        return true;
    }else {
        return false;
    }
}
?>

Isn't it that simple?

If I wanted to save the actual site (HTML) then yes, it would be that easy.

in that case, you need to read the source using the file_get_contents, then use a regular expression to sort out all the images within that page. Then use that function on the image URLs and it will download all images on a webpage.

(Note. you can also just use the direct image url if you know it with the current function for it to work)

I could just right click on the image and save it then.

[bowersbros]

Yes. which is why i also suggested the way to do it automatically..

I have actually made a thumbnailer which resizes the image, and recentantly created a function that changes the size of a jpeg image :L I could upload it if you like?

That sounds perfect. It could just be used directly but I may use it as part of a larger image manipulation thing.

You will have to zip any php files. but upload them / it as an attachment to this topic

Well I'm currently thinking about learning the GD Libary, and I could create a few functions I suppose. It seems interesting enough to not make me bored...

So who will be the first to set up a GIT repository for this?

Not me

It's too much of a pain to use, although I guess it would be useful when there is more than one person contributing

[libeco]

And that's where an IDE can prove itself. Painstakingly easy, just hit commit, do a pull and push, no writing command line crap in a terminal, console or whatever it's called...

[jacek]

gEdit has a git plugin ! thats very handy !

I'll set one up.
What should I call it and what should the description be?

Don't do that, I am doing it now.

Ok. It shouldn't be hard though.

It wasn’t

I did, its in the first post.

If you have something to add I can make you a contributor.

This is a great idea, just noticed this thread. Today I started to build my own library as well, but it consists of some very basic things (notes, code pieces, functions, etc.) that I will be using frequently. I want to contribute to this thread later though.

[jacek]

We need basic stuff too, if you have any useful functions fee free to post them

I may have some useful files stored somewhere on my computer.. I'll look for them

EDIT: Found these files:

php classes and functions.zip

(12.51 KiB) Downloaded 402 times

They are probably yours.. also they are quite helpful

[jacek]

Yes they are mine

They are also the ones in the git if you bothered to look !
