if you are going to read this array in php you can just use something like this
$content = '<?php' . PHP_EOL;
$content .= '$arr = ' . var_export($your_array, true) . ';' .PHP_EOL;
file_put_contents('file.php', $content);
and then just inclure your file and be happy
function getArray() {
include 'file.php';
if(!isset($arr) {
// ooops! something goes wrong
return array(); // throw exception or process as you want such sitation
}
return $arr;
}
Pros:
- fast, especially when your file doesn't change frequently and you have some opcode cacher, e.g. XCache or APC or else
Cons:
- not secure. The content may be changed to any code and it will be executed with webserver rights (or with logged in user if you use it as a CLI)
Actually we use this solution on high load cause it cost-effective and we have pretty good security to do not worry about unauthorized access. You may try but this is not the best practice but the fastest way to do the job.
