Phar::getStub — Return the PHP loader or bootstrap stub of a Phar archive
Phar archives contain a bootstrap loader, or stub written in PHP that is executed when the archive is executed in PHP either via include:
<?php
include 'myphar.phar';
?>
or by simple execution:
php myphar.phar
Returns a string containing the contents of the bootstrap loader (stub) of the current Phar archive.
Throws RuntimeException if it is not possible to read the stub from the Phar archive.
Example #1 A Phar::getStub() example
$p = new Phar('/path/to/my.phar', 0, 'my.phar');
echo $p->getStub();
echo "==NEXT==\n";
$p->setStub("<?php
function __autoload($class)
{
include 'phar://' . str_replace('_', '/', $class);
}
Phar::mapPhar('myphar.phar');
include 'phar://myphar.phar/startup.php';
__HALT_COMPILER(); ?>");
echo $p->getStub();
The above example will output:
<?php __HALT_COMPILER(); ?> ==NEXT== <?php function __autoload($class) { include 'phar://' . str_replace('_', '/', $class); } Phar::mapPhar('myphar.phar'); include 'phar://myphar.phar/startup.php'; __HALT_COMPILER(); ?>
