call by php - Githubissues

I created a php script that calls the cgi with multiple files, because I couldn't find any php example. I think maybe other people find this helpful, so maybe it could be included somewhere in the docs.

<?php

class TeXLive
{
    private $files;
    private $boundary;
    private $eol = "\r\n";
    /**
     * The path & filename to save to.
     */
    private $output = 'document.pdf';

    private static function generateBoundary(): string
    {
        return 'TITO-'.md5(time());
    }

    public function __construct(array $files, string $output = 'document.pdf')
    {
        $this->files = $files;
        $this->boundary = self::generateBoundary();
        $this->output = $output;
    }

    private function getPart($name, $value)
    {
        $part = '--'.$this->boundary.$this->eol;
        $part .= 'Content-Disposition: form-data; name="'.$name.'"'.$this->eol;
        // $part .= 'Content-Length: '.strlen($value).$this->eol;
        $part .= $this->eol;
        $part .= $value.$this->eol;

        return $part;
    }

    private function getBody()
    {
        $body = '';
        $body .= $this->getPart('return', 'pdf');
        $body .= $this->getPart('engine', 'pdflatex');
        $body .= $this->getPart('filename[]', 'document.tex');
        $body .= $this->getPart('filecontents[]', file_get_contents($this->files[0]));
        for ($i = 1; $i < count($this->files); ++$i) {
            $filename = $this->files[$i];
            $body .= $this->getPart('filename[]', $filename);
            $body .= $this->getPart('filecontents[]', file_get_contents($filename));
        }

        $body .= '--'.$this->boundary.'--'.$this->eol;

        return $body;
    }

    public function generateDocument()
    {
        $ch = curl_init();
        // curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://postman-echo.com/post');
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://texlive.net/cgi-bin/latexcgi');
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'POST');
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,
          ['Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary='.$this->boundary]);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $this->getBody($this->boundary));
        // header('Content-Type: application/json');
        curl_exec($ch);

        $info = curl_getinfo($ch);
        // echo json_encode($info);

        curl_close($ch);
        $this->saveDocument($info['redirect_url']);
    }

    /**
     * fileUrl: The resource that we want to download.
     */
    private function saveDocument(string $fileUrl)
    {
        $saveTo = $this->output;
        if (endsWith($fileUrl, 'log')) {
            $saveTo = 'TeXLiveError.log';
        }

        //Open file handler.
        $fp = fopen($saveTo, 'w+');

        //If $fp is FALSE, something went wrong.
        if ($fp === false) {
            throw new Exception('Could not open: '.$saveTo);
        }

        //Create a cURL handle.
        $ch = curl_init($fileUrl);

        //Pass our file handle to cURL.
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fp);

        //Timeout if the file doesn't download after 20 seconds.
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 20);

        //Execute the request.
        curl_exec($ch);

        //If there was an error, throw an Exception
        if (curl_errno($ch)) {
            throw new Exception(curl_error($ch));
        }

        //Get the HTTP status code.
        $statusCode = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);

        //Close the cURL handler.
        curl_close($ch);

        //Close the file handler.
        fclose($fp);

        if ($statusCode != 200) {
            throw new Exception('Error downloading pdf. Status Code: '.$statusCode);
        }
    }
}

// (new TeXLive(['document.tex', 'file1.tex']))->generateDocument();

function endsWith($haystack, $needle)
{
    $length = strlen($needle);
    if (!$length) {
        return true;
    }

    return substr($haystack, -$length) === $needle;
}

How to call

Only the constructor and generateDocument are public, so just look at the interface of these methods. The files handed over to the constructor should all be in the current working directory, so maybe you have to call chdir before calling generateDocument.
