Upload files using cakephp 3 and store it in a blob

问题

I know that storing files in database is a little dirty, but I'm need to upload and store a file into a database BLOB and I haven't found any documentation about it and I haven't find any clue, so any help about it will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance, David

There is nothing special that you'd need to do, simply set the data that you want to store in the appropriate entity property (respectively array key), either as a string, or as a stream.

BLOB columns will automatically be associated with the \Cake\Database\Type\BinaryType database type, where everything that is necessary for storing/reading binary data is being handled.

Here's an abstract example, showing possible use cases

$data = [
    'file_a' => file_get_contents('path/to/file.ext'),
    'file_b' => fopen('path/to/file.ext', 'r'),
    'file_c' => 'foo bar baz'
];
$entity = $Table->newEntity($data);
$Table->save($entity);

The read entities will always hold the data as streams, so you can use them with the Filesystem and Stream functions, like

$handle = $Table->get(1)->file_a;
while (!feof($handle)) {
    echo fread($handle, 8192);
}

echo stream_get_contents($Table->get(1)->file_a);
