PHP – File Upload Stream

File Upload Stream

PHP supports upload file stream… we can stream data to server using PHP stream_open() & stream_write() functions.

There is alternate method in PEAR to transfer files to server1 to server2. PEAR have HTTP package for uploading files.

HTTP_Request supports GET/POST/HEAD/TRACE/PUT/DELETE, Basic authentication, Proxy, Proxy Authentication, SSL, file uploads etc.

<?php
require_once "HTTP/Request.php";
$req =& new HTTP_Request("http://domain.com/upload");
$req->setBasicAuth("login", "pass");
$req->setMethod(HTTP_REQUEST_METHOD_POST);

$result = $req->addFile("data", "/home/phpsolutions.mp4");
if (PEAR::isError($result)) {
echo "Error occurred during file upload!";
} else {
$response = $req->sendRequest();
if (PEAR::isError($response)) {echo "Error occurred during file upload!";
} else {
echo "File successfully uploaded!";
}
}
?>
