Php Functions



  • Version 1:
    I got bored and I wrote the php version of the fast-gpio

       function SetIO($pin, $value)
       {
           exec("fast-gpio set $pin $value 2>&1", $output);
           return explode(': ',$output[0])[1];
       }
    
      function ReadIO($pin)
      {
           exec("fast-gpio read $pin 2>&1", $output);
           return explode(': ',$output[0])[1];
      }
    
     function SetPWM($pin, $hZ, $dutyCyclePercent)
     {
           exec("fast-gpio pwm $pin $hZ $dutyCyclePercent 2>&1", $output);
           return explode(': ',$output[0])[1];
     }
    

    Version 2

    Using PHP & the Onion Omega v2

    The Onion Omega runs a webserver called uhttpd, this is capable of running PHP, happy days šŸ™‚

    Hidden away in the forums fello onioneers have already worked on setting up basic examples of getting PHP to run & also included basic proof-of-concept scripts. This tutorial walks you through the steps of getting these to work.

    All you need is a little imagination on how you can use & abuse this with you Onion Omega.

    You Will need to expand your Onion Omega's System File size using a usb stick and pivot-overlay.

    Let's get started

    First we need to install the required packages, to do this you can use the terminal, or ideally via SSH:

    opkg update
    opkg install php5 php5-cgi
    

    This installs the required PHP files, which is a text editor and alot easier to use than vim.

    Optionally you can also install the CLI version of PHP using the command below. This allows you to run PHP scripts from the commandline using "php-cli scriptname.php"

    opkg install php5-cli
    

    Next we need to edit the uhttpd file, you can do this by using this command:

    vi /etc/config/uhttpd
    

    Where you see the 'main' section of text like this:

    config uhttpd 'main'
            list listen_http '0.0.0.0:80'
            list listen_http '[::]:80'
            list listen_https '0.0.0.0:443'
            list listen_https '[::]:443'
            option redirect_https '1'
            option home '/www'
            option rfc1918_filter '1'
            option max_requests '3'
            option max_connections '100'
            option cert '/etc/uhttpd.crt'
            option key '/etc/uhttpd.key'
            option cgi_prefix '/cgi-bin'
            option script_timeout '60'
            option network_timeout '30'
            option http_keepalive '20'
            option tcp_keepalive '1'
            option ubus_prefix '/ubus'
    

    Add this to the last line of that block of text (there is another block of text after this, I've left that out for simplicity)

    list interpreter ".php=/usr/bin/php-cgi"
    option index_page 'index.php'
    

    Press 'ESQ' on keyboard, and then ':wq' & 'Enter' to save changes.

    Now we need to restart the web server, we do this by running this command:

    /etc/init.d/uhttpd restart
    

    And that's it, the uhttpd server is now capable of parsing PHP files.

    Test File

    Create a test file & directory by executing the following command:

    mkdir /www/php
    cd /www/php
    vi index.php
    

    And paste this code into the file & save:

    <?php
    	phpinfo();	
    ?>
    

    Press 'ESQ' on keyboard, and then ':wq' & 'Enter' to save changes.

    Now open your web browser and go to http://omega-ABCD.local/php/

    Note: If you receive a directory or file permissions issue, run the following command and try again.

    chmod -R 755 /www/php
    

    Let's Use the Library

    First download the library with wget from the gist https://gist.github.com/Immortal-/a18f58ac5c21ba27921b7626b5a8b06e
    wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Immortal-/a18f58ac5c21ba27921b7626b5a8b06e/raw/df8e70665523c2a06b503954d10943560d5c189f/OmegaPHP.php

    Then you may write your own code See my example if you get stumped

    My Eample

    https://gist.github.com/Immortal-/c032136484afa32da0e1de5fde76e2f0

    Notes & Further Resources

    You can edit the php.ini file by running this command:

    vi /etc/php.ini


  • administrators

    @chris-mccaslin awesome! can you make a GitHub gist so we can link to this in the Wiki?
    You're also welcome to add your own article to the wiki šŸ™‚



  • I tried to add it myself to the wiki I get

    Error
    Forbidden. This wiki is set to no-edit mode.
    

    And here is the gist, When I get bored again I will add more functionality to it.


  • administrators

    @chris-mccaslin we're still working on implementing the editor mode in the wiki. For now, you'll have to submit a pull request to our wiki GitHub repo: https://github.com/OnionIoT/wiki



  • @Lazar-Demin I think I got it Idk If not delete my request and use this markdown

    Also added it to a class..
