command

External command runner / executor for PHP. This is an object oriented, robust replacement for exec, shell_exec, the backtick operator and the like.

~~Taken from http://pollinimini.net/blog/php-command-runner/ and hosted here for maintenance, improvement and use with Packagist~~

This package is diverging heavily from the original project, and it will continue to diverge.

Running Commands

At its simplest form, you can execute commands like this:

$cmd = Command::factory('ls')->run();

Adding Arguments and Options

Here we are safely adding arguments:

use kamermans\Command\Command;

$cmd = Command::factory('/usr/bin/svn')
    ->option('--username', 'drslump')
    ->option('-r', 'HEAD')
    ->option('log')
    ->argument('http://code.google.com/drslump/trunk');
    ->run();

echo $cmd->getStdOut();

Using a Callback for Incremental Updates

Normally all command output is buffered and once the command completes you can access it. By using a callback, the output is buffered until the desired number of bytes is received (see Command::setReadBuffer(int $bytes)), then it is passed to your callback function:

use kamermans\Command\Command;

$cmd = Command::factory('ls')
    ->setCallback(function($pipe, $data) {
        // Gets run for every 4096 bytes
        echo $data;
    })
    ->setReadBuffer(4096)
    ->setDirectory('/tmp')
    ->option('-l')
    ->run();

Alternately, you can set the second argument for Command::run(string $stdin, bool $lines) to true to execute your callback once for every line of output:

use kamermans\Command\Command;

$cmd = Command::factory('ls')
    ->setCallback(function($pipe, $data){
        // Gets run for each line of output
        echo $data;
    })
    ->setDirectory('/tmp')
    ->option('-l')
    ->run(null, true);

Streaming large command output

The STDOUT and STDERR is collected inside PHP by default. If you have a large amount of data to pass into the command, you should stream it in (see STDIN from a stream below). If you have a large amount of output from the command, you should stream it out using a callback:

use kamermans\Command\Command;

require_once __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';

$filename = __DIR__.'/../README.md';
$stdin = fopen($filename, 'r');

// This will read README.md and grep for lines containing 'the'
$cmd = Command::factory("grep 'the'")
    ->setCallback(function($pipe, $data) {
        // Change the text to uppercase
        $data = strtoupper($data);

        if ($pipe === Command::STDERR) {
            Command::echoStdErr($data);
        } else {
            echo $data;
        }
    })
    ->run($stdin);

fclose($stdin);

Running a Command without Escaping

By default, the command passed to Command::factory(string $command, bool $escape) is escaped, so characters like | and > will replaced with \| and \> respectively. To prevent the command factory from escaping your command, you can pass true as the second argument:

use kamermans\Command\Command;

$cmd = Command::factory('grep CRON < /var/log/syslog | head', true)->run();

echo $cmd->getStdOut();

Outputting to STDERR

To output content to your STDERR there is a helper function Command::echoStdErr(string $content):

use kamermans\Command\Command;

$cmd = Command::factory('grep CRON < /var/log/syslog | head', true)
    ->setCallback(function($pipe,$data) {
        if ($pipe === Command::STDERR) {
            Command::echoStdErr($data);
        } else {
            echo $data;
        }
    })
    ->run();

Using STDIN

You can provide data for STDIN using a string or a stream resource (like a file handle)

STDIN from a String

use kamermans\Command\Command;

$stdin = "banana
orange
apple
pear
";

$cmd = Command::factory("sort")
    ->run($stdin);

echo $cmd->getStdOut();

STDIN from a Stream

use kamermans\Command\Command;

$filename = __DIR__.'/../README.md';
$stdin = fopen($filename, 'r');

// This will count the number of words in the README.md file
$cmd = Command::factory("wc")
    ->option("--words")
    ->run($stdin);

fclose($stdin);

$words = trim($cmd->getStdOut());
echo "File $filename contains $words words\n";

Your system's STDIN is also a stream, so you can accept input that is typed on the command line or piped into your script as well:

use kamermans\Command\Command;

echo "Type some words, one per line, then press CTRL-D and they will be sorted:\n";

$cmd = Command::factory("sort")
    // This causes Command to use the real STDIN
    ->run(STDIN);

echo "\n";
echo $cmd->getStdOut();

Some more features:

StdIn data can be provided to the process as a parameter to run()
Set environment variables for the process with setEnv()
Second argument to option() and argument to argument() are automatically escaped.
Options separator is white space by default, it can be changed by manually setting it as third argument to option() or setting a new default with setOptionSeparator().
The proc_open wrapper is exposed as a static method for your convenience Command::exec()
