This package provides the /usr/bin/php command interpreter, useful for testing PHP scripts from a shell or performing general shell scripting tasks. PHP (recursive acronym for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) is a widely-used open source general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for web development and can be embedded into HTML. This package is a dependency package, which depends on latest stable PHP version (currently 8.4).

NAME
phar, phar.phar - PHAR (PHP archive) command line tool
SYNOPSIS
phar <command> [options] ...
DESCRIPTION
The PHAR file format provides a way to put entire PHP applications into a
single file called a "phar" (PHP Archive) for easy distribution and in-
stallation.
With the phar command you can create, update or extract PHP archives.
Commands: add compress delete extract help help-list info list meta-del
meta-get meta-set pack sign stub-get stub-set tree version
add command
Add entries to a PHAR package.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
... Any number of input files and directories. If -i is in use
then ONLY files and matching the given regular expression
are being packed. If -x is given then files matching that
regular expression are NOT being packed.
Optional arguments:
-a alias Provide an alias name for the phar file.
-c algo Compression algorithm (see COMPRESSION )
-i regex Specifies a regular expression for input files.
-l level Number of preceding subdirectories to strip from file en-
tries
-x regex Regular expression for input files to exclude.
compress command
Compress or uncompress all files or a selected entry.
Required arguments:
-c algo Compression algorithm (see COMPRESSION )
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
Optional arguments:
-e entry Name of entry to work on (must include PHAR internal direc-
tory name if any).
delete command
Delete entry from a PHAR archive
Required arguments:
-e entry Name of entry to work on (must include PHAR internal direc-
tory name if any).
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
extract command
Extract a PHAR package to a directory.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
Optional arguments:
-i regex Specifies a regular expression for input files.
-x regex Regular expression for input files to exclude.
... Directory to extract to (defaults to '.').
help command
This help or help for a selected command.
Optional arguments:
... Optional command to retrieve help for.
help-list command
Lists available commands.
info command
Get information about a PHAR package.
By using -k it is possible to return a single value.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
Optional arguments:
-k index Subscription index to work on.
list command
List contents of a PHAR archive.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
Optional arguments:
-i regex Specifies a regular expression for input files.
-x regex Regular expression for input files to exclude.
meta-del command
Delete meta information of a PHAR entry or a PHAR package.
If -k is given then the metadata is expected to be an array and the given
index is being deleted.
If something was deleted the return value is 0 otherwise it is 1.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
Optional arguments:
-e entry Name of entry to work on (must include PHAR internal direc-
tory name if any).
-k index Subscription index to work on.
meta-get command
Get meta information of a PHAR entry or a PHAR package in serialized from.
If no output file is specified for meta data then stdout is being used.
You can also specify a particular index using -k. In that case the meta-
data is expected to be an array and the value of the given index is re-
turned using echo rather than using serialize. If that index does not ex-
ist or no meta data is present then the return value is 1.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
Optional arguments:
-e entry Name of entry to work on (must include PHAR internal direc-
tory name if any).
-k index Subscription index to work on.
meta-set command
Set meta data of a PHAR entry or a PHAR package using serialized input. If
no input file is specified for meta data then stdin is being used. You can
also specify a particular index using -k. In that case the metadata is ex-
pected to be an array and the value of the given index is being set. If
the metadata is not present or empty a new array will be created. If the
metadata is present and a flat value then the return value is 1. Also us-
ing -k the input is been taken directly rather then being serialized.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
-m meta Meta data to store with entry (serialized php data).
Optional arguments:
-e entry Name of entry to work on (must include PHAR internal direc-
tory name if any).
-k index Subscription index to work on.
pack command
Pack files into a PHAR archive.
When using -s <stub>, then the stub file is being excluded from the list
of input files/dirs.To create an archive that contains PEAR class
PHP_Archive then point -p argument to PHP/Archive.php.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
... Any number of input files and directories. If -i is in use
then ONLY files and matching the given regular expression
are being packed. If -x is given then files matching that
regular expression are NOT being packed.
Optional arguments:
-a alias Provide an alias name for the phar file.
-b bang Hash-bang line to start the archive (e.g. #!/usr/bin/php).
The hash mark itself '#!' and the newline character are op-
tional.
-c algo Compression algorithm (see COMPRESSION )
-h hash Selects the hash algorithm (see HASH )
-i regex Specifies a regular expression for input files.
-l level Number of preceding subdirectories to strip from file en-
tries
-p loader Location of PHP_Archive class file (pear list-files
PHP_Archive).You can use '0' or '1' to locate it automati-
cally using the mentioned pear command. When using '0' the
command does not error out when the class file cannot be
located. This switch also adds some code around the stub so
that class PHP_Archive gets registered as phar:// stream
wrapper if necessary. And finally this switch will add the
file phar.inc from this package and load it to ensure class
Phar is present.
-s stub Select the stub file.
-x regex Regular expression for input files to exclude.
-y key Private key for OpenSSL signing.
sign command
Set signature hash algorithm.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
-h hash Selects the hash algorithm (see HASH )
Optional arguments:
-y key Private key for OpenSSL signing.
stub-get command
Get the stub of a PHAR file. If no output file is specified as stub then
stdout is being used.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
Optional arguments:
-s stub Select the stub file.
stub-set command
Set the stub of a PHAR file. If no input file is specified as stub then
stdin is being used.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
Optional arguments:
-b bang Hash-bang line to start the archive (e.g. #!/usr/bin/php).
The hash mark itself '#!' and the newline character are op-
tional.
-p loader Location of PHP_Archive class file (pear list-files

wrapper if necessary. And finally this switch will add the
file phar.inc from this package and load it to ensure class
Phar is present.

tree command
Get a directory tree for a PHAR archive.
Required arguments:
-f file Specifies the phar file to work on.
Optional arguments:
-i regex Specifies a regular expression for input files.
-x regex Regular expression for input files to exclude.
