PHP - Editing Php Script To Enable Parsing Of Large Xml File
I'm trying to utilize a PHP script to parse a large XML file (around 450 MB) to MYSQL database into certain structure and definitions of included XML elements. The problem is that the original script uses file_get_contents and SimpleXMLElement to get it done, but the corn job executed by the server halts due to the volume of the XML file. I'm no PHP expert, so I bought this XMLSplit software and divided the XML into 17 separated XML files each at size of 30 MB, parsed them one by one using the same script. However, the output database was missing a lot of input, and I have serious doubts whether this would be the same output of the original file if left not divided automatically and parsed one by one.
So, I've decided to use XMLReader with this exact PHP script to parse this big XML file, but so far I couldn't manage to simply replace the parsing code and keep other functionality intact.
I'm including the script below, I'd really appreciate if someone helps me to do so.
<?php
set_time_limit(0);
ini_set('memory_limit', '1024M');
include_once('../db.php');
include_once(DOC_ROOT.'/include/func.php');
mysql_query("TRUNCATE screenshots_list");
mysql_query("TRUNCATE pages");
mysql_query("TRUNCATE page_screenshots");
// This is the part I need help with to change into XMLReader instead of utilized function, to enable parsing of the large XML file correctly (while keeping rest of the script code as is if possible):
$xmlstr = file_get_contents('t_info.xml');
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlstr);
foreach ($xml->template as $item)
{
//print_r($item);
$sql = sprintf("REPLACE INTO templates SET id = %d, state = %d, price = %d, exc_price = %d, inserted_date = '%s', update_date = '%s', downloads = %d, type_id = %d, type_name = '%s', is_flash = %d, is_adult = %d, width = '%s', author_id = %d, author_nick = '%s', package_id = %d, is_full_site = %d, is_real_size = %d, keywords = '%s', sources = '%s', description = '%s', software_required = '%s'", $item->id, $item->state, $item->price, $item->exc_price, $item->inserted_date, $item->update_date, $item->downloads, $item->template_type->type_id, $item->template_type->type_name, $item->is_flash, $item->is_adult, $item->width, $item->author->author_id, $item->author->author_nick, $item->package->package_id, $item->is_full_site, $item->is_real_size, $item->keywords, $item->sources, $item->description, $item->software_required);
//echo '<br>'.$sql;
mysql_query($sql);
//print_r($item->screenshots_list->screenshot);
foreach ($item->screenshots_list->screenshot as $scr) {
$main = (!empty($scr->main_preview)) ? 1 : 0;
$small = (!empty($scr->small_preview)) ? 1 : 0;
insert_data($item->id, 'screenshots_list', 0, $scr->uri, $scr->filemtime, $main, $small);
}
foreach ($item->styles->style as $st) {
insert_data($item->id, 'styles', $st->style_id, $st->style_name);
}
foreach ($item->categories->category as $cat) {
insert_data($item->id, 'categories', $cat->category_id, $cat->category_name);
}
foreach ($item->sources_available_list->source as $so) {
insert_data($item->id, 'sources_available_list', $so->source_id, '');
}
foreach ($item->software_required_list->software as $soft) {
insert_data($item->id, 'software_required_list', $soft->software_id, '');
}
//print_r($item->pages->page);
if (!empty($item->pages->page)) {
foreach ($item->pages->page as $p) {
mysql_query(sprintf("REPLACE INTO pages SET tpl_id = %d, name = '%s', id = NULL ", $item->id, $p->name));
$page_id = mysql_insert_id();
if (!empty($p->screenshots->scr)) {
foreach ($p->screenshots->scr as $psc) {
$href = (!empty($psc->href)) ? (string)$psc->href : '';
mysql_query(sprintf("REPLACE INTO page_screenshots SET page_id = %d, description = '%s', uri = '%s', scr_type_id = %d, width = %d, height = %d, href = '%s'", $page_id, $psc->description, $psc->uri, $psc->scr_type_id, $psc->width, $psc->height, $href));
}
}
}
}}?>
I'd appreciate your help with that...
Similar TutorialsHi guys, I am currently receiving a large text file ( > 500mb), once per week which I have been manually splitting then processing to obtain the required CSV files. However, this is taking in the region of 2 to 3 hours. Very soon, these files will be sent daily and I really dont have the time to split and process this everyday I have been playing for a while to try and parse everything properly/automatically with fopen, feof and fgets ( and other 'f' options), but the script never seems to read the file all the way to the end - I assume this is due to memory usage. The data received in the file follows a strict pattern throughout the file which is: Code: [Select] BSNY990141112271112270100000 POO2C35 122354000 DMUS 075 O BX NTY LOLANCSTR 1132 11322 TB LIMORCMSJ 1135 00000000 LICRNFNJN 1140 00000000 H LICRNF 1141H1142H 11421142 T LISDAL 1147H1148H 11481148 T LIARNSIDE 1152H1153 11531153 T LIGOVS 1158 1159 11581159 T LIKTBK 1202 1202H 12021202 T LICARK 1206 1207 12061207 T LIULVRSTN 1214H1215H 12151215 T LIDALTON 1223 1223H 12231223 T LIDALTONJ 1225 00000000 LIROOSE 1229 1229H 12291229 T 2 LTBAROW 1237 12391 TF That is just one record of informaton (1 of around 140,000 records), each record has no fixed amount of lines but each line in each record is fixed to 80 characters and all lines in each record need to have the same unique 'id', at present, Im using an md5 hash of microtime. The first line of every record starts with 'BS' and the last line of each record starts with 'LT' terminating with 'TF'. All the other stuff between also follows a certain pattern of which I can break down effectively. The record above show one train service schedule, hence why each line in each record needs the same unique id. Anyone got any ideas on how I could process such a file effectively?? Many thanks Dave I need to open a template file change a text var and then save the file as something new. How can I do this? Hello All This was an online test, which I didn't do very well with, and am looking for guidance of where I went wrong. The idea is you'd have a matrix $A with values -1, 0, 1 in each position, in rows M and column N where M,N can be up to 1000. The code is evaluated $k times where $k can be up to 1000 as well. Starting at $A[0][0], evaluate the matrix where -1 means you go down a row and +1 means you go right one column. A 0 value means you continue along your previous direction. After exiting a position, that positions value is multiplied by -1: 1 = (-1); (-1) = 1; 0 = 0 Once you exit the matrix either on the right or below, you stop and start over The goal of the code is to return how many times you exited the bottom right corner, ending up below (not to the right) the matrix; When your spot is [M], [N+1] Here is the code I wrote: Code: [Select] function eval_matrix( $A, $k ) { $x = 0; $y = 0; // dir is x or y for up/down // $dir = "y"; $ball_count = 0; // Get columns // $maxX = count($A); // Get rows // $maxY = count($A[0]); // for $k times for($i=0; $i<$k; $i++) { // while we're within the matrix boundaries while($x < $maxX && $y < $maxY) { // get the value of our current position $mode = $A[$x][$y]; // evaluate the value 0,1,-1 switch($mode) { case 0: if($dir =="y") { $y++; } else { $x++; } break; case -1: // Change position value $A[$x][$y] = 1; $y++; $dir = "y"; break; case 1: // Change position value $A[$x][$y] = -1 $x++; $dir = "x"; break; } } if($x == $maxX-1 && $y == $maxY) { $ball_count++; } $x = 0; $y = 0; $dir = "y"; } return $ball_count; } It may be fairly ugly, but I'm looking for help with how to properly code this type of solution. Any pointers, resources, suggestions are greatly appreciated! Hello, Im trying to find a way to check around 500-600 links to check if they are alive. It works fine for 5-6 links but once i add more links it just times out. Is there a way i could process this so it does 1 link at a time or somthing ? <?php include("config.php"); $query = "SELECT * FROM `games` WHERE `r_fileserve` <> \"\" LIMIT 500"; $result = mysql_query($query); while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $link_str = file_get_contents("$row[r_fileserve]"); $pattern = '<input type="hidden" name="download" value="normal"/>'; preg_match($pattern,$link_str,$match); if ($match[0] != null) { echo "Working <br />"; } else { echo "File Down <br />"; } } ?> I've been working with PHP for only a few weeks now. I have learned a significant amount by creating a custom web app. I can usually figure things out by massive Googling and trial and error but this one has got me stumped. I have a form for this web app that I'd like to use as a configuration page. It houses all of the settings that the web app needs. On the backend, I'm housing all of this data in a XML file. So far, I've been able to parse the XML file to populate all of the appropriate fields in the HTML form. However, I'm having trouble taking the user's input and saving it back to the same XML. To do this, I have a processconfig.php page as the form's action. In this process.php page, I'm using the elements from the $_POST array to bring over all of the data in the form's fields. I want to take these $_POST array elements and insert them into the same XML that originally populated the form in the first place. With the code below I've been able to get the SimpleXML object to add data to the XML file but it is simply appended to the end with no formatting. As you can see, I've tried to name the form fields the same name as it's POST array element so that I can do the loop but it's not working. Is there an easier way to do this or is there another recommended way to retrieve and store configuration items for a web app? Here's my code: config.xml snippet Code: [Select] <Config> <General> <Logging> <Enabled>No</Enabled> </Logging> <QueryBuybackSites> <Enabled>Yes</Enabled> </QueryBuybackSites> <BuildFBA> <Enabled>No</Enabled> </BuildFBA> <BuildBB> <Enabled>No</Enabled> </BuildBB> <FBARankCutoff> <Value>1000000</Value> </FBARankCutoff> <Amazon0Offer> <DefaultPrice> <Value>47.77</Value> </DefaultPrice> <AutoKeep> <Enabled>Yes</Enabled> </AutoKeep> </Amazon0Offer> </General> </Config> configview.php snippet Code: [Select] <?php //Load all configuration data $configxml = simplexml_load_file('config.xml'); echo '<html> <head> <title>Easy Receive Configuration</title> </head> <body> <form action="processconfig.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" id="emf-form" method="post"> <table bgcolor="#FFFFFF" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" style="text-align: left;"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="2" style=""> <font color="#000000" face="Verdana" size="2"><b style="font-size: 20px;">Easy Receive Configuration Settings</b><br /> <label style="font-size: 15px;">This is where you can customize Easy Receive to your personal preferences</label></font> </td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td colspan="2" style=""> <hr /> <h3 id="element_0" name="element_0" style="font-size: 14px; padding: 10px 0pt 6px; margin: 14px 0pt; position: static;"> <span style="font-size: 24px;"><font color="#000000" face="Verdana">General Configuration Options</font></span></h3> </td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td align="" style=""> <p> <strong>Enable Logging</strong> <input name="General->Logging->Enabled" type="checkbox" ' . htmlify($configxml->General->Logging->Enabled) .

Now i have two issues with this... first one is: Code: [Select] <?php $myFile = "chatlist.txt"; $fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("can't open file"); $stringData = $Message.'<br/>'; fwrite($fh, $stringData); fclose($fh); ?> This writes the most recent line, how ever the next line that gets sent overwrites so theres only ever one line in the txt file =/ Secondly how on earth do you delete a specific line from the file efficiently ? Say for example a line which broke the rules some how like spam was posted etc. Hope you get shed light on this. Thanks

I make this simple script for upload files like photo , It's work correctly ,but not upload the large files ex 8MB images 12MB images
Edited by Ch0cu3r, 04 October 2014 - 09:50 AM. Modified topic title - changed download to upload When I try to upload a file larger than the server's max limit, the following code is not executed. How am I supposed to inform the user that their file is too large? NOTE: I've stripped the code down for this post.

The first takes a few minutes, the second takes over an hour... The first script completed successfully, but the second script seems like it just stops most of the way through the script... I have this set on both files: set_time_limit(0); ini_set('memory_limit', -1); I NEED to disable ALL time limits and all of that, does ANYONE have any clue as to why my second script is failing? It is NOT the programming, I know that for sure... But the script just stops executing, and I think it is because it times out... But after setting those 2 options, I don't see why it times out.. Also for reference, I am NOT using any database... I am simply downloading files from an FTP server to my server... Any help would be appreciated, I have been searching for the last few days on an answer. Rob Hi I'm currently writing a script that basically downloads videos from a specific page. I am downloading with cURL however with some files, they're so large cURL is timing out. This is causing either a) PHP to timeout b) PHP memory to run out c) cURL to stop once defined timeout limit is reached This means that some files are only partitially downloaded as some files are over 100mb and some are only 20mb I have Code: [Select] set_time_limit(0);and Code: [Select] ini_set("memory_limit","500M");set but is there a way to make it so PHP will not timeout and the cURL session will not timeout until the file is downloaded? Going to try and explain this the best I can but I don't really have the best idea on what's happening here. I have a submission form for users to fill out their information and upload an image. I've set the file limit size at 500000 which I assumed would be safe for images at 400k or below. When testing locally, any image that is below that file size gets uploaded successfully. However, when testing on my online host/server.. the submission form and data is successfully entered but the image isn't saved at all. It obviously isn't over the size of the file limit I set because it dooesn't return an error.. it successfuly submits but doesn't save or resize my image. I really have no clue what the problem could be. I went over the variables I set for folder locations to move the image to and everything works fine locally, but once on the host and online, it doesn't happen. Hi I'm learning php and trying to write a script to extract registration information from a large text file. Sadly my meagre knowledge of php is letting me down a bit. It's a case of knowing what you want the script to do but not having the knowlege of how to 'say it'. So i was hoping that if I posted my code here someone could either give me a few pointers on where i am going wrong or suggest a better way. The text file data luckily has a recurring format as follows (for brevity i've only included one entry, which contains made up information): From: bella_done@yahoo.co.uk Sent: 02 February 2011 22:50 To: Jonny tum, patsy fells, dingly bongo Subject: Subject: Fun Run 2010 Categories: Fun Run Name: Bella Donna Address: 14 brondle avenue Postcode: cd83 1rg Phone: 0287343510 Email: bella_don@yahoo.co.uk DOB: 15/11/1945 Half or Full: Full fun run How did you hear: Took part in 2010 As you can see the data has a convenient boundary at the 'from' field and the colon (or so it occurred to me) so I created my script as follows: // the string being analysed $the_string = " From: bella_done@yahoo.co.uk Sent: 02 February 2011 22:50 To: Jonny tum, patsy fells, dingly bongo Subject: Subject: Fun Run 2010 Categories: Fun Run Name: Bella Donna Address: 14 brondle avenue Postcode: cd83 1rg Phone: 0287343510 Email: bella_don@yahoo.co.uk DOB: 15/11/1945 Half or Full: Full fun run How did you hear: Took part in 2010"; // remove all formatting to work with a clean string $clean_string = strip_tags($the_string); // remove form field entries from the data and replace with commas and a ZZZ boundary $remove_fields = array("Categories:" => "","Name:" => ",","Address:" => ",","Postcode:" => ",","Phone:" => ",","Email:" => ",","DOB:" => ",","Half or Full:" => ",","How did you hear:" => ",","From:" => "ZZZ","Sent:" => ",","To:" => ",", ); $new_string = strtr("$clean_string",$remove_fields); // split the data at the boundary ZZZ $string_to_array = explode("ZZZ", $new_string); $new_string2 = implode("</br>",$string_to_array); echo $new_string2; $myFile = "address_list.csv"; $fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("can't open file"); $stringData = $new_string2; fwrite($fh, $stringData); fclose($fh); One major problem is when i write the new data to a csv file the csv contains spacings that cause it to be reproduced in a column form rather than as separate fields for each comma boundary. So can anyone suggest either a) a better way of extracting the data from the text file (doesn't need to be 100% clean and perfect) b) How can i stop the spaces in the csv (i thought i would have fixed this when i stripped the tags from the string at the start??). Any help would be greatly received by a newbie phper. It's my first shot at performing anything moderately taxing so if I've made some blaring oversites I would very much welcome your wisdom! Thank you Drongo Hello. My script is set to upload files upto 5GB large. For that script I've currently set memory_limit to 5GB. Is it alright? I mean what is the ideal value (for large upload scripts) If you feel, 5GB is large. I can make script to upload 2GB files and set memory_limit accordingly. Also, max_execution_time has been set by me to 86400 currently. Assuming, on a 500Kbps broadband, it would require upto 24 hours to upload a 3-5GB file. Please suggest. Thank you.

Hi all, I have a text file with few IP ranges in the following format: 1.52.0.0 - 1.55.255.255 What I hope I can do is to loop through the file content and retrieve the start IP / end IP (each in a variable) so that I can work on each of them. So for example for the line above I wish to get (1.52.0.0) in a var and (1.55.255.255) in another var while looping the file content So I was wondering if I can get any help on how to do this using PHP? Please excuse me if this seem to be very easy question but I am quite new to php, so any code help will be highly appreciate Thanks for your time Mark Hi, As I am new to PHP and JSON my Interest in the field pushes me to know further. I have successfully parsed a JSON file: { "birthdays": [ "319507200" :"Kyle", "1390435200" :"Noah", "307843200" :"Carla" ] } Using this PHP file: <?php $jsondata = file_get_contents("birthdays.json"); $json = json_decode($jsondata,true); echo $json["birthdays"][0]['1390435200']; ?> Now I would like to know how to display when Noah’s birthday is, in the form yyyy/MM/dd. Can an expert tell me how this would be done? Thank you :-) hi php freaks, Is there a way to parse an include file through the php engine and then place the contents into a variable? Code: [Select] $x = include ($myfile); |
