Hallo,
I have a PHP application made of many files ( php, images etc. )
I have a strong suspicion that many of the files in the application
directory are no more in use, because of changes made on the application.
Is there a tool that, starting from the entry point of the application,
scans the files recursively for included/used files and lists them ?
With this list I could delete the remaining files.
Thanks
Andreas

You could write a python or even php script to do that, storing all the
files an array/list and then finding files (regex) which are not
included in any of the php files.
Of course, this applies if and only if you haven't used __autoload() magic.

Or you could just grep the directory, not saying you have to do this, but
this was kind of fun to write anyways, if i spent more time on it, i could
perfect it, but i dont have that kind of time, so this will still give you a
few doubles, but it shouldn't give you false-positives as long as you have
all the extensions in that grep regex (and you cant make it more generic
without introducing false-positives)...

Thank you, So, with your post you will probably get one or more replies suggesting every one of the popular frameworks and then several that suggest some lesser known ones. I think Zend looks great, but for many people (including me) it is overly complex and cumbersome. It is a very professional and standardised class library, but has no glue to put it all together for you. Also, it takes OOP to the extreme (for PHP anyway). Everything has abstract classes, interfaces and the like. CI is good from a lightweight, gives you something to build on perspective. I however prefer CakePHP. Its been around for a while, it can automatically build an app from just a well designed database and doesn't require configuration files in XML, YAML or what have you. The documentation is OK and could be much better. It really depends on what you want out of the framework. I would suggest going through the CakePHP and CI tutorials and seeing which one seems like a good fit for you. I use a combination of Zend Framework (Soap and Config), PEAR (for Console_CommandLine) and my own code developed along the lines of Zend Framework. I think the What framework is best question can be partially answered by asking which framework allow you the greatest degree of flexibility. I don't have to use any part of Zend that I don't want. Same with PEAR. Having said that, none of these frameworks will write your app for you. Others may, based upon various rules or file structures. -- Richard Quadling Twitter : EE : Zend : PHPDoc @RQuadling : e-e.com/M_248814.html : bit.ly/9O8vFY : bit.ly/lFnVea -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] File concurrent file access
Hi ! I'm developing my new website and I'm worried about concurrent file access. In fact, I want to suppress a maximum database interactions so I keep information in files with faster I/O than databases. But I'm worried by the fact that an error can occur when someone try to access a file being edited by a cron task. Does PHP do all the stuff itself or is there something to do about it ? PS: I only use file_get_contents, file_put_contentsand unlink on files. Best regards. Florian
Re: [PHP] dependency check
It would still be quicker with shell tools, imho, granted that some command
line elitistry would be required... Also if you are going to be doing string
parsing and manipulation, and string parsing here is all that you are doing,
there would be no better language than perl to do it with, granted i dont
like perl and prefer python or php or ruby to it, but when you have a lot of
string manipulation, perl has no rival i have used yet, though i guess if
awk were combined with sed, there would be some potential...

With file_put_contents you send a flag to lock the file and avoid
concurrency problems, eg:
file_put_contents('/some/file', 'data', FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX);

The only problem you may run into is an include that's part of a logic
branch in your code that never gets called under any circumstance (maybe
the logic changed and you no longer require a certain set of functions
for example)
It's also possible that your bigger problem isn't rogue files that
aren't being used but files with lots of unused functions, unused class
methods, etc. Sometimes the only way to find those is by tracing back
all the way from each function/method in turn.

It would still be quicker with shell tools, imho, granted that some command

parsing and manipulation, and string parsing here is all that you are doing,
there would be no better language than perl to do it with, granted i dont
like perl and prefer python or php or ruby to it, but when you have a lot of
string manipulation, perl has no rival i have used yet, though i guess if
awk were combined with sed, there would be some potential...

Or you could just grep the directory, not saying you have to do this,

could perfect it, but i dont have that kind of time, so this will still
give you a few doubles, but it shouldn't give you false-positives as
long as you have all the extensions in that grep regex (and you cant
make it more generic without introducing false-positives)...
grep -oiPR [a-zA-Z0-9]+\.(php|js|png|
jpg|css|htm|html) directory | awk 'function getfiles(input, files, i,
n, file) {result = ; n=split(input, files, :); for(i=0; i=n; i++) {
if(files[i] !~ /^\s*$/) print files[i];}} {getfiles($0)}' | sort -biu
This should give you all the files that reference files and the files
they reference.

It is possible to use the shell tools, but it is a big trouble to handle
spaces and special characters in shell scripting if your filenames have
them, quite rare with self created applications, but you can't say, and
hence I suggested python/php script method.

The only problem you may run into is an include that's part of a logic
branch in your code that never gets called under any circumstance (maybe the
logic changed and you no longer require a certain set of functions for
example)
It's also possible that your bigger problem isn't rogue files that aren't
being used but files with lots of unused functions, unused class methods,
etc. Sometimes the only way to find those is by tracing back all the way
from each function/method in turn.

You could actually automate that as well, all your functions are defined
with a function definition, you would build a table of functions and then
traverse the code searching for these functions. Chances are you would have
the majority of functions traced. This leaves out dynamic functions, eval
and some magic methods, dynamic functions and eval are not the best of ideas
to begin with, though i admit, i have had to use them before. But it's not
to say that this would be impossible to solve. There are other ways to do
this too which would be a bit more involved...
