what I am trying to do is to create an installer for my world calendar in a script. I need to make some changes to one of the files in. the main script. I have managed to use the code above to make the change that I want. the problem is that there is more than one occurrence. how do I make the same change every time that the string is repeated. it could happened 0 or 1 or 2 times
$target_line='$second = (int)substr($raw_date, 17, 2);';
$lines_to_add= '$raw_date = translate_from_gregorian($raw_date);'. PHP_EOL.
'$year = (int)substr($raw_date, 0, 4);'. PHP_EOL.
'$month = (int)substr($raw_date, 5, 2);'. PHP_EOL.
'$day = (int)substr($raw_date, 8, 2);'. PHP_EOL;
$config ='includes/functions/general.php';
$file=fopen($config,"r+") or exit("Unable to open file!");
$insertPos=0; // variable for saving //Users position
while (!feof($file)) {
$line=fgets($file);
if (strpos($line,$target_line)!==false) {
$insertPos=ftell($file); // ftell will tell the position where the pointer moved, here is the new line after //Users.
$newline = $lines_to_add;
} else {
$newline.=$line; // append existing data with new data of user
}
}
fseek($file,$insertPos); // move pointer to the file position where we saved above
fwrite($file, $newline);
fclose($file);
Read the entire file into a variable. Use str_replace()
to make all the replacements. Then write the result back to the file.
$contents = file_get_contents($config);
$contents = str_replace($target_line, $target_line . PHP_EOL . $lines_to_add, $contents);
file_put_contents($config, $contents);
