[](#flowjs-php-server--)

PHP library for handling chunk uploads. Library contains helper methods for:

- Testing if uploaded file chunk exists.
- Validating file chunk
- Creating separate chunks folder
- Validating uploaded chunks
- Merging all chunks to a single file

This library is compatible with HTML5 file upload library:

Basic Usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

```
if (\Flow\Basic::save('./final_file_destination', './chunks_temp_folder')) {
  // file saved successfully and can be accessed at './final_file_destination'
} else {
  // This is not a final chunk or request is invalid, continue to upload.
}
```

Make sure that `./chunks_temp_folder` path exists. All chunks will be save in this temporary folder.

If you are stuck with this example, please read this issue: [How to use the flow-php-server](https://github.com/flowjs/flow-php-server/issues/3#issuecomment-46979467)

Advanced Usage
--------------

[](#advanced-usage)

```
$config = new \Flow\Config();
$config->setTempDir('./chunks_temp_folder');
$file = new \Flow\File($config);

if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'GET') {
    if ($file->checkChunk()) {
        header("HTTP/1.1 200 Ok");
    } else {
        header("HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found");
        return ;
    }
} else {
  if ($file->validateChunk()) {
      $file->saveChunk();
  } else {
      // error, invalid chunk upload request, retry
      header("HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request");
      return ;
  }
}
if ($file->validateFile() && $file->save('./final_file_name')) {
    // File upload was completed
} else {
    // This is not a final chunk, continue to upload
}
```

Delete unfinished files
-----------------------

[](#delete-unfinished-files)

For this you should setup cron, which would check each chunk upload time. If chunk is uploaded long time ago, then chunk should be deleted.

Helper method for checking this:

```
\Flow\Uploader::pruneChunks('./chunks_folder');
```

Cron task can be avoided by using random function execution.

```
if (1 == mt_rand(1, 100)) {
    \Flow\Uploader::pruneChunks('./chunks_folder');
}
```
