chmod

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

chmodDosya kipini değiştirir

Açıklama

chmod(string $dosyaismi, int $kip): bool

Belirtilen dosyanın kipini kip yapmaya çalışır.

Bağımsız Değişkenler

dosyaismi

Dosya yolu.

kip

kip ile belirtilen değerin otomatik olarak sekizlik bir değer olduğu varsayılmamaktadır, bu bakımdan umulan işlemi sağlamak için değerin önüne 0 (sıfır) getirmeniz gerekir. Ayrıca, ("g+w" gibi) dizesel kip belirtimleri çalışmayacaktır

<?php
chmod
("/somedir/somefile", 755); // onluk tabanda; doğru sonuç vermeyebilir
chmod("/somedir/somefile", "u+rwx,go+rx"); // dizge; doğru sonuç vermeyebilir
chmod("/somedir/somefile", 0755); // sekizlik; doğru kip değeri.
?>

kip bağımsız değişkeni üç adet sekizlik değerden oluşur. Sırayla kullanıcı, grup ve diğerlerinin izinlerini düzenlerler. Her bileşen kullanıcıya verilen izinlerin toplamından oluşur. Çalıştırma hakkı için 1, yazma hakkı için 2 ve okuma hakkı için 4 değeri toplama dahil edilir. Unix sistemlerindeki kipler hakkında daha ayrıntılı bilgiyi 'man 1 chmod' ve 'man 2 chmod' kılavuz sayfalarında bulabilirsiniz.

<?php
//sahibinden başkası okuyup yazamasın
chmod("/birdizin/birdosya", 0600);

// Sahibi okuyup yazsın başka herkes sadece okuyabilsin
chmod("/birdizin/birdosya", 0644);

// Sahibi herşeyi yapsın, başka herkes okuyup çalıştırabilsin
chmod("/birdizin/birdosya", 0755);

// Sahibi herşeyi yapsın, grup üyeleri okuyup çalıştırabilsin,
// diğerleri hiçbir şey yapamasın
chmod("/birdizin/birdosya", 0750);
?>

Dönen Değerler

Başarı durumunda true, başarısızlık durumunda false döner.

Hatalar/İstisnalar

Başarısızlık durumunda, bir E_WARNING çıktılanır.

Notlar

Bilginize:

Geçerli kullanıcı PHP'yi çalıştıran kullanıcıdır. Muhtemelen normal kabuk ve FTP erişimi için kullandığınız kullanıcı değildir. Çoğu sistemde dosyanın kipini sadece dosyanın sahibi olan kullanıcı değiştirebilir.

Bilginize: Dosyaların sunucunun dosya sistemi üzerinden erişilebilir olması gerektiğinden bu işlev uzak dosyalar üzerinde çalışmayacaktır.

Ayrıca Bakınız

  • chown() - Dosyanın sahibini değiştirir
  • chgrp() - Dosya grubunu değiştirir
  • fileperms() - Dosya izinlerini döndürür
  • stat() - Bir dosya hakkında bilgi döndürür

BEWARE, a couple of the examples in the comments suggest doing something like this:

chmod(file_or_dir_name, intval($mode, 8));

However, if $mode is an integer then intval( ) won't modify it.  So, this code...

$mode = 644;
chmod('/tmp/test', intval($mode, 8));

...produces permissions that look like this:

1--w----r-T

Instead, use octdec( ), like this:

chmod(file_or_dir_name, octdec($mode));

BEWARE using quotes around the second parameter...

If you use quotes eg

chmod (file, "0644");

php will not complain but will do an implicit conversion to an int before running chmod. Unfortunately the implicit conversion doesn't take into account the octal string so you end up with an integer version 644, which is 1204 octal

use a stored string for the mask is a pain
ex: $mask contains a string 0755
int($mask) not work (return 755)
the only way i found is use octdec($mask)

In the previous post, stickybit avenger writes:
    Just a little hint. I was once adwised to set the 'sticky bit', i.e. use 1777 as chmod-value...

Note that in order to set the sticky bit on a file one must use '01777' (oct) and not '1777' (dec) as the parameter to chmod:

<?php
    chmod
("file",01777);   // correct
    
chmod("file",1777);    // incorrect, same as chmod("file",01023), causing no owner permissions!
?>

Rule of thumb: always prefix octal mode values with a zero.

If you cannot chmod files/directories with PHP because of safe_mode restrictions, but you can use FTP to chmod them, simply use PHP's FTP-functions (eg. ftp_chmod or ftp_site) instead. Not as efficient, but works.

Note that info at rvgate dot nl's chmodnum function produces INCORRECT results.  The resutls are base-10 numbers that only LOOK like they are octal numbers.  The function also ignores setuid, setgid and sticky bits, and will produce incorrect numbers if such a file is encountered.  Instead, this brute-force code works.  Maybe there is something more slick, but this isn't too CPU-intensive (note that it assumes you've error-checked that you indeed have a 10-character string!):

<?php
      $permissions
= 'drwxr-xr-x'// or whatever
     
$mode = 0;

      if (
$permissions[1] == 'r') $mode += 0400;
      if (
$permissions[2] == 'w') $mode += 0200;
      if (
$permissions[3] == 'x') $mode += 0100;
      else if (
$permissions[3] == 's') $mode += 04100;
      else if (
$permissions[3] == 'S') $mode += 04000;

      if (
$permissions[4] == 'r') $mode += 040;
      if (
$permissions[5] == 'w') $mode += 020;
      if (
$permissions[6] == 'x') $mode += 010;
      else if (
$permissions[6] == 's') $mode += 02010;
      else if (
$permissions[6] == 'S') $mode += 02000;

      if (
$permissions[7] == 'r') $mode += 04;
      if (
$permissions[8] == 'w') $mode += 02;
      if (
$permissions[9] == 'x') $mode += 01;
      else if (
$permissions[9] == 't') $mode += 01001;
      else if (
$permissions[9] == 'T') $mode += 01000;

     
printf('Mode is %d decimal and %o octal', $mode, $mode);

Changes file mode recursive in $pathname to $filemode

foreach(
$iterator as $item) {
   
chmod($item, $filemode);
}

Just an update of the solution with octdec. You have to give octdec the string as a parameter.

$mode = '644';
chmod(file_or_dir_name, octdec($mode));

Windows has a very different file permission model to Unix and integrates them only minimally.

On Windows, all this function can do is to change the "read only" flag, which is turned on if $mode & 0200 does not pass.
i.e. it only checks if u+w is missing from the bitmask, and if it is, it sets the read only flag.

The executable flag cannot be set as Windows determines it based on file extension.
The write flag cannot be set as Windows determines write access based on ACLs, which are not integrated here.

an update to 'neil at 11 out of 10's code for changing mode using FTP.

changes: proper array added within the function (better for those of us who only need to connect to one ftp server) so only the mode and directory name need to be passed.

the octal added, for completeness and predictable stability.

<?php
function changemode($xcite)
{
$ftp_details = array(
ftp_user_name => 'username',
ftp_user_pass => 'password',
ftp_user_root => '/public_html/',
ftp_server => 'ftp.something.org'
);

$path = "public";
$mod = intval($xcite, 8);

  
// extract ftp details (array keys as variable names)
  
extract ($ftp_details);
  
  
// set up basic connection
  
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
  
  
// login with username and password
  
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);
  
  
// try to chmod $path directory
  
if (ftp_site($conn_id, 'CHMOD '.$mod.' '.$ftp_root.$path) !== false) {
      
$success=TRUE;
   }
   else {
      
$success=FALSE;
   }

  
// close the connection
  
ftp_close($conn_id);
    return
$success;
}

?>

for those of you, like me, who were looking for a way to make an 'un-hackable' uploader, here's the closest i got, now for a field test, good luck!

I was trying to change permissions of a folder with chmod command with FTP connection. (I needed a writable folder to upload pictures with php)

I got the following respond:
"SITE CHMOD 777 uploads: command not understood"

The reason: Server is running under Windows system that does not allow to set file permissions via FTP. Conversely, the UNIX-running servers allow that.

Solutions:

1. If your web hosting provider has a web-based control panel that lets you set file permissions, then you need to login there and make changes.

2. It is possible to contact the hosting provider and ask them about this issue; maybe they can make the changes.

3. It is possible to change the hosting provider that has servers run on UNIX, and keep the site there.

For recursive chmod'ing both files and directories in one step you can use the function below. Note that this function has one argument for directory permissions and one for file permissions.
In this way you can apply the 'x' permission on directories, and skip it on directories. This function also skips links.

Example usage :

   chmod_R( 'mydir', 0666, 0777);

Makes all files and directories within mydir/ directory accessible for everyone, but doesn't make the files executable.

I guess for very deeply nested directories the recursion with php can become problematic, but I can be wrong because I never investigated this.

<?php
function chmod_R($path, $filemode, $dirmode) {
    if (
is_dir($path) ) {
        if (!
chmod($path, $dirmode)) {
           
$dirmode_str=decoct($dirmode);
            print
"Failed applying filemode '$dirmode_str' on directory '$path'\n";
            print
"  `-> the directory '$path' will be skipped from recursive chmod\n";
            return;
        }
       
$dh = opendir($path);
        while ((
$file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
            if(
$file != '.' && $file != '..') {  // skip self and parent pointing directories
               
$fullpath = $path.'/'.$file;
               
chmod_R($fullpath, $filemode,$dirmode);
            }
        }
       
closedir($dh);
    } else {
        if (
is_link($path)) {
            print
"link '$path' is skipped\n";
            return;
        }
        if (!
chmod($path, $filemode)) {
           
$filemode_str=decoct($filemode);
            print
"Failed applying filemode '$filemode_str' on file '$path'\n";
            return;
        }
    }
}
?>

if you want to chmod directories too, use this

<?php
$iterator
= new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new RecursiveDirectoryIterator($pathname), RecursiveIteratorIterator::SELF_FIRST);

foreach(
$iterator as $item) {
   
chmod($item, $filemode);
}
?>

$fullpath = $path.'/'.$file;
            if(
is_link($fullpath))
                return
FALSE;
            elseif(!

FALSE;
            elseif(!
chmod_R($fullpath, $filemode))
                return

Thanks for your code, "imoldgreg at o2 dot co dot uk". I am using it for an instalation script that has to CHMOD a bunch of files. I have found it faster to use the same connectino for each, as shown below.

<?php

// Thanks to "imoldgreg at o2 dot co dot uk" for the base 'CHMOD via FTP' script.

function chmod_open()
{
   
// Use your own FTP info
   
$ftp_user_name = 'chmod@XXXXXXXXX.com';
   
$ftp_user_pass = 'XXXXXXXXXX';
   
$ftp_root = '/';
   
$ftp_server = 'localhost';
   
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
   
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);
    return
$conn_id;
}

function
chmod_file($conn_id, $permissions, $path)
{
    if (
ftp_site($conn_id, 'CHMOD ' . $permissions . ' ' . $ftp_root . $path) !== false)
    {
        return
TRUE;
    }
    else
    {
        return
FALSE;
    }
}

function
chmod_close($conn_id)
{
   
ftp_close($conn_id);
}

// CHMOD the required setup files

// Connect to the FTP
$conn_id = chmod_open();

// CHMOD each file and echo the results
echo chmod_file($conn_id, 777, 'master/cache/') ? 'CHMODed successfully!' : 'Error';
echo
chmod_file($conn_id, 777, 'master/files/') ? 'CHMODed successfully!' : 'Error';
echo
chmod_file($conn_id, 777, 'master/store/') ? 'CHMODed successfully!' : 'Error';
echo
chmod_file($conn_id, 766, 'master/config.php') ? 'CHMODed successfully!' : 'Error';
echo
chmod_file($conn_id, 777, 'master/images/avatars/upload/') ? 'CHMODed successfully!' : 'Error';

// Close the connection
chmod_close($conn_id);

?>

Here, the same FTP connection is used for each CHMOD command, making the execute time lower. This is essential for me, since my script is also copying a bunch of files.
