PHP：创建一个Mac可执行文件

Question

I created a project years ago that allows a user to type in the IP address of a printer, select the printer model click submit and it would create a mac executable that would automatically install the print driver on the computer.

Unfortunately, I didn't back up the code and it's lost in the ether.

I need to rebuild this project and the only part I'm stuck on is making the file an executable for Macs.

On a mac, all I need to do is open up Terminal and type the following command to make it executable:

 chmod +x filename

How do i do this in PHP?

Here's what i've attempted so far

$file = fopen("installer", "w+") or die("file not open");

$kyocerascript = 'code for the script goes here';


fwrite($file,$kyocerascript) or die("Data not write");


fclose($file);
chmod("installer", "+x");

and i've tried

chmod($file, "+x");

My code creates the file without any issues but it's not an executable.

I resolved this issue by zipping the file

To execute php at any type of machine you need to install php itself. You can install one of many "local servers" like: XAMPP, WAMP, etc.
