Hello,
I'm trying to login to a cvs repository and upload/download files from a
php script utilizing the 'cvs' command. I'm trying to avoid the use of
external libraries, etc...
Is it possible to do this with popen, or more likely with proc_open?
I'd prefer to do it with the former so as to not require PHP 4.3+, but in
my testing I've been unable to do it with either command.
I've looked through the examples of using proc_open at php.net, but have
been unable to translate these into a script that simply logs into cvs.
The return code from proc_close is always 1, and the best I've gotten is
an error saying "used empty password; try 'cvs login' with a real
password".
Any pointers into how I can make this work would be greatly
appreciated!!
Here's roughly what I'm trying to do:
----------
$dspec = array(
0 => array("pipe", "r"), // standard in
1 => array("pipe", "w"), // standard out
);
$proc = proc_open("/usr/local/bin/cvs -d pserver:@my.server:/home/cvs
login 2>&1", $dspec, $pipes);
if(is_resource($proc)) {
$output .= fgets($pipes[1], 1024);
$output .= fgets($pipes[1], 14);
fclose($pipes[1]);
if (!fwrite($pipes[0], "cvspassword")) {
echo "Error...";
exit;
}
fclose($pipes[0]);
echo proc_close($proc);
$output .= "command returned $return_value\n";
}
----------
Thanks,
-Jeremy
