Phar->begin -- Begin a Phar modification transaction

Opis

void Phar->begin ( void )

Although technically unnecessary, the begin() method can provide a significant performance boost when creating or modifying a Phar archive with a large number of files. Ordinarily, every time a file within a Phar archive is created or modified in any way, the entire Phar archive will be recreated with the changes. In this way, the archive will be up-to-date with the activity performed on it.

However, this can be unnecessary when simply creating a new Phar archive, when it would make more sense to write the entire archive out at once. Similarly, it is often necessary to make a series of changes and to ensure that they all are possible before making any changes on disk, similar to the relational database concept of transactions. the begin()/commit() pair of methods is provided for this purpose.

Phar transactions are per-archive, a transaction active on the foo.phar Phar archive does not affect changes to the bar.phar Phar archive.

<?php
// make sure it doesn't exist
@unlink('brandnewphar.phar');
try {
    
$p = new Phar(dirname(__FILE__) . '/brandnewphar.phar', 0, 'brandnewphar.phar');
}
catch (Exception $e) {
    echo
'Could not create phar:', $e;
}
echo
'The new phar has ' . $p->count() . " entries\n";
$p->begin();
$p['file.txt'] = 'hi';
$p['file2.txt'] = 'there';
$p['file2.txt']->setCompressedGZ();
$p['file3.txt'] = 'babyface';
$p['file3.txt']->setMetaData(42);
$p->setStub("<?php
function __autoload($class)
{
    include 'phar://myphar.phar/' . str_replace('_', '/', $class) . '.php';
}
