An image created by PHP has no extension and is not treated as an image












0















I am loading an image from a remote server (google for example), but PHP never treats it as an image. This is my code:



$photo = imagecreatefromstring(file_get_contents("https://some.com/image.jpg"));
$filename = $photo["name"];
$ext = strtolower(pathinfo($filename, PATHINFO_EXTENSION)); //returns ""
$filepath = $photo["tmp_name"];
is_array(getimagesize($filepath); //returns false


What am I doing wrong?

    Maybe add var_dump() after each line to see in which line we have a flaw.

  • @ColinCline var_dump($photo) returns "resource(9) of type (gd)", $photo['name'] and ['tmp_name'] are NULL

imagecreatefromstring returns an image not array.



$photo = imagecreatefromstring(file_get_contents("https://some.com/image.jpg"));
ob_end_clean();
header('Content-type: image/jpeg');
imagejpeg($photo, null, 80);


If this code doesn't produce an image then start debugging from finding out the return value of file_get_contents().



Also - after creating an image (using any of imagecreatefrom... functions) you are dealing with image resource, not file system or any other object. Image resource does not have information you are trying to extract (name, pathinfo etc.)
