PHP flock（）：我可以在文件获取和文件放置内容周围使用它（读取-修改-写入）

Question

I want to do a read-modify-write to a file whilst I have an exclusive lock. Clearly I can use flock() and do the sequence fopen, flock, fread, fwrite, flock, fclose, but I my code would look neater if it I could use file_get_contents and file_put_contents. However, I need to lock both processes and I was wondering if was possible to do that using flock "somehow". The danger is, of course, that I'll write something that seems to work but doesnt actually lock anything :-)

as @jonathan said you can use the flag LOCK_EX with file_put_contents but for file_get_contents you can build your own custom function and then use it in your code . the code below can be a starting point for you:

function fget_contents($path,$operation=LOCK_EX|LOCK_NB,&$wouldblock=0,$use_include_path = false ,$context=NULL ,$offset = 0 ,$maxlen=null){
    if(!file_exists($path)||!is_readable($path)){
        trigger_error("fget_contents($path): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in",E_USER_WARNING);
        return false;
    }
    if($maxlen<0){
        trigger_error("fget_contents(): length must be greater than or equal to zero",E_USER_WARNING);
        return false;
    }
    $maxlen=is_null($maxlen)?filesize($path):$maxlen;
    $context=!is_resource($context)?NULL:$context;
    $use_include_path=($use_include_path!==false&&$use_include_path!==FILE_USE_INCLUDE_PATH)?false:$use_include_path;
    if(is_resource($context))
        $resource=fopen($path,'r',(bool)$use_include_path,$context);
    else
        $resource=fopen($path,'r',(bool)$use_include_path);
    $operation=($operation!==LOCK_EX|LOCK_NB&&$operation!==LOCK_SH|LOCK_NB&&$operation!==LOCK_EX&&$operation!==LOCK_SH)?LOCK_EX|LOCK_NB:$operation;
    if(!flock($resource,$operation,$wouldblock)){
        trigger_error("fget_contents(): the file can't be locked",E_USER_WARNING);
        return false;
    }
    if(-1===fseek($resource,$offset)){
        trigger_error("fget_contents(): can't move to offset $offset.The stream doesn't support fseek ",E_USER_WARNING);
        return false;
    }
    $contents=fread($resource,$maxlen);

    flock($resource, LOCK_UN);
    fclose($resource);
    return $contents;
}

for a little explanation : i just combine the parameters for flock with those for file_get_contents so you just need to read alittle about these two functions to understand the code.However if you don't need advanced usage of this function you can just do

 $variable=fget_contents($yourpathhere);

I think this line is the same as :

 $variable=file_get_contents($yourpathhere);

Except that fget_contents will actually lock the file according to your flag...
