PHAR.SETMETADATA(3) 1 PHAR.SETMETADATA(3)Phar::setMetadata - Sets phar archive meta-data
SYNOPSIS
public void Phar::setMetadata (mixed $metadata)
DESCRIPTION
Note
This method requires the php.ini setting phar.readonly to be set to 0 in order to work for Phar objects. Otherwise, a PharException
will be thrown.
Phar.setMetadata(3) should be used to store customized data that describes something about the phar archive as a complete entity. PharFile-
Info.setMetadata(3) should be used for file-specific meta-data. Meta-data can slow down the performance of loading a phar archive if the
data is large.
Some possible uses for meta-data include specifying which file within the archive should be used to bootstrap the archive, or the location
of a file manifest like PEAR's package.xml file. However, any useful data that describes the phar archive may be stored.
PARAMETERS
o $metadata
- Any PHP variable containing information to store that describes the phar archive
RETURN VALUES
No value is returned.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
A Phar.setMetadata(3) example
<?php
// make sure it doesn't exist
@unlink('brandnewphar.phar');
try {
$p = new Phar(dirname(__FILE__) . '/brandnewphar.phar', 0, 'brandnewphar.phar');
$p['file.php'] = '<?php echo "hello"';
$p->setMetadata(array('bootstrap' => 'file.php'));
var_dump($p->getMetadata());
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo 'Could not create and/or modify phar:', $e;
}
?>
The above example will output:
array(1) {
["bootstrap"]=>
string(8) "file.php"
}

Note: I set the default to "SyntaxHighlighting" for debugging purposes. We can change the default back to the original code tags later.
