Question

I am making a crawler that will put content(images) onto my website, i have made a script that crawls and saves the url to a image fine but now i need to upload the images to my server so that i can use them on my website.

I have seen people saying that file_put_contents should be used but you have to specify the image name and ext but it will be dynamic?

Answer 1

you can use file_get_contents() and file_put_contents()

$image = 'http://example.org/image.jpg';
$filename = basename($image);
$content = file_get_contents($image);
file_put_contents('/path/to/your/dir/'.$filename, $content);
