How to make file upload from console?

Question

Yii

There is a controller to process the file.

public function actionIndex()
    {
        $model = new Logs();
        $filename = new UploadHistory();

        if (Yii::$app->request->isPost) {
            $model->file = UploadedFile::getInstance($model, 'file');
            if ($model->file && $model->validate()) {
                $model->file->saveAs($model->file);
                $filename->filename = $model->file->name;
                $filename->save();
                $path = $filename->filename_id;
                $rows = $model->indexFile($model->file);
                $model->logUpload($rows, $path);
            }
        }

        return $this->render('index', ['model' => $model]);
    }

How to correctly rewrite it to the /commands folder to call this command from the command line. That is interested in how to transfer the file in this case.

Answer 1

I wonder why you need to pass the file to the script from the console?)

Answer 2

If you want to transfer exactly the body of the file, then pack it in base64 for example and shove it as a parameter. And in php, parse the parameter and translate it into a file stream.

Answer 3

You won't be able to do this by standard means and, accordingly, using the code you provided will also fail. Therefore, you need to write your own class for uploading files (ala UploadedFile) that implements the functionality you need

Answer 4

Because you call the command from the console, it is obvious that the file must already be on the server.
By calling the command, we can simply pass it the path to the file, and then, having this path, we can open the file and do something with it using standard functions (well, or wrap it in some convenient object).

public function actionIndex($filepath){
   $filename = end(explode('/',$filepath));

   $file_handler = fopen($filepath); // далее используем дескриптор файла для чтения/записи
   // или
   $file_content_string = file_get_contents($filepath); // сразу читаем содержимое в строку
}

You need to call this case like this:php yii MyCommand /path/to/file
