php -d xdebug.profiler_enable=1

Posted on by

So to enable profiling on the command line run your script in PHP like this:

php -d xdebug.profiler_enable=1 /path/to/script.php

You need to have configured xdebug in php.ini, I do it with a file in /etc/php/7.2/cli/conf.d/xdebug.ini that looks like this:

;xdebug.profiler_enable = 0
xdebug.profiler_output_dir = "/tmp/xdebug"
xdebug.profiler_output_name = "cachegrind.out.%p"

Note: you can enable profiling for all scripts with xdebug.profiler_enable = 1

NetBeans PHP “Invalid include path”

Posted on by

So I migrated my projects from a Debian 8 (Jessie) system to a Debian 9 (Stretch) system. The default NetBeans installed by apt-get install netbeans on Strech was 8.1, and it didn’t include PHP support, so I manually installed NetBeans 8.2.

When I opened my old projects I got an error about an invalid global PHP include path.

So initially I edited ~/.netbeans/8.2/build.properties to change the php.global.include.path settings (to remove /usr/share/php5, because in Stretch I’m running PHP 7.0). But that didn’t work. Each time I ran NetBeans the build.properties file was overwritten with the old php5 directory.

So then I found ~/.netbeans/8.2/config/Preferences/org/netbeans/modules/php/project/general.properties. In there I edited the phpGlobalIncludPath and removed the /usr/share/php5 directory.

Then when I reopened NetBeans all of my projects opened properly without an error! Everything is easy when you know how!

Navigate to matching brace in NetBeans

Posted on by

So I wanted to know the keyboard shortcut to navigate between matching braces in my PHP (and other) code in NetBeans. I’m running NetBeans 8.2. So I searched and found General Editor Features which said “to find a shortcut for a specific command, type the command name in the Search field.” So the Search field they’re talking about is on the Keymap screen under Tools -> Options. After creating myself a custom Keymap Profile based on the NetBeans default settings I searched in the ‘Search:’ box for ‘match’ and found ‘Insertion Point to Matching Brace’ which is Ctrl+OPEN_BRACKET. Everything is easy when you know how!

Fixing curl SSL certificate problem

Posted on by

So I was having an issue with curl (actually the PHP client at first, but also with the command-line version).

The issue manifested like this:

jj5@orac:~/temp/curl$ curl https://test.jj5.net/my-file.txt
curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
More details here: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html

curl performs SSL certificate verification by default, using a "bundle"
 of Certificate Authority (CA) public keys (CA certs). If the default
 bundle file isn't adequate, you can specify an alternate file
 using the --cacert option.
If this HTTPS server uses a certificate signed by a CA represented in
 the bundle, the certificate verification probably failed due to a
 problem with the certificate (it might be expired, or the name might
 not match the domain name in the URL).
If you'd like to turn off curl's verification of the certificate, use
 the -k (or --insecure) option.

I ran the command in strace:

jj5@orac:~/temp/curl$ strace curl https://test.jj5.net/my-file.txt 2>&1 | less

Noticed this strace output:

stat("/etc/ssl/certs/8d28ae65.0", 0x7ffc33143630) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

There was no /etc/ssl/certs/8d28ae65.0 file.

I found a copy of 8d28ae65.0 here:

PDO: Execute a prepared statement using array for IN clause

Posted on by

See Example #5 here.

/* Execute a prepared statement using an array of values for an IN clause */
$params = array(1, 21, 63, 171);
/* Create a string for the parameter placeholders filled to the number of params */
$place_holders = implode(',', array_fill(0, count($params), '?'));

/*
    This prepares the statement with enough unnamed placeholders for every value
    in our $params array. The values of the $params array are then bound to the
    placeholders in the prepared statement when the statement is executed.
    This is not the same thing as using PDOStatement::bindParam() since this
    requires a reference to the variable. PDOStatement::execute() only binds
    by value instead.
*/
$sth = $dbh->prepare("SELECT id, name FROM contacts WHERE id IN ($place_holders)");
$sth->execute($params);
