What is .ini file in php?

❮ PHP Filesystem Reference

Example

Contents of "test.ini":

[names]
me = Robert
you = Peter

[urls]
first = "http://www.example.com"
second = "https://www.w3schools.com"

PHP code:

print_r(parse_ini_file("test.ini"));
?>

The output of the code above will be:

Array (
  [me] => Robert
  [you] => Peter
  [first] => http://www.example.com
  [second] => https://www.w3schools.com
)



Definition and Usage

The parse_ini_file() function parses a configuration (ini) file and returns the settings.

Tip: This function can be used to read in your own configuration files, and has nothing to do with the php.ini file.

Note: The following reserved words must not be used as keys for ini files: null, yes, no, true, false, on, off, none. Furthermore, the following reserved characters must not be used in the key: {}|&~!()^".

Syntax

parse_ini_file(file, process_sections, scanner_mode)

Parameter Values

ParameterDescription
file Required. Specifies the ini file to parse
process_sections Optional. If set to TRUE, it returns is a multidimensional array with section names and settings included. Default is FALSE
scanner_mode

Optional. Can be one of the following values:

  • INI_SCANNER_NORMAL (default)
  • INI_SCANNER_RAW (means option values will not be parsed)
  • INI_SCANNER_TYPED (means that boolean, null and integer types are preserved when possible. "true", "on", "yes" are converted to TRUE. "false", "off", "no", "none" are converted to FALSE. "null" is converted to NULL. Numeric strings are converted to integer type if possible)


Technical Details

Return Value:An array on success, FALSE on failure
PHP Version:4.0+
PHP Changelog:PHP 7.0: Hash marks (#) is no longer recognized as comments
PHP 5.6.1: Added INI_SCANNER_TYPED mode
PHP 5.3: Added optional scanner_mode parameter

❮ PHP Filesystem Reference


Whether you are looking to make some custom changes to your PHP settings or just switched PHP versions and the wrong settings are being loaded, you may need the default PHP.ini file for your current PHP version. Below we will go over why this file can be important.

What does the PHP.ini file do?

The php.ini file contains all of the current PHP configuration settings: such as the execution time, memory limit, etc. This is also how PECL modules are enabled such as memcache, APC, etc. This file allows you to override the server’s default configuration settings.

Setting up a new php.ini file

Easy way to load up a copy of the PHP.INI file

The PHP Configuration option is available in shared server accounts (this includes Reseller accounts). The dedicated/VPS accounts will only have the PHP Configuration option if it has been loaded. This option provides a quick and easy way to load up a PHP.INI file without having to manually create it.

  1. Log into your cPanel account  
  2. Go to the Software and Services section, then click on PHP Configuration (or MultiPHP Manager for VPS users)
  3. Make sure you’re using the PHP version you want (if you’re not sure, then leave it as it is), then click on the Update button.

That will create the default PHP.INI file in your PUBLIC_HTML folder.

How to Manually Create a PHP.INI file

Clicking on the button for your PHP version will open a new window containing the correct php.ini file for that version. Below are the steps for adding a php.ini file to your account.

  1. Log into your cPanel account
  2. Open your File Manager

 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
 ; About php.ini   ;
 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
 ; PHP's initialization file, generally called php.ini, is responsible for
 ; configuring many of the aspects of PHP's behavior.
 ; PHP attempts to find and load this configuration from a number of locations.
 ; The following is a summary of its search order:
 ; 1. SAPI module specific location.
 ; 2. The PHPRC environment variable. (As of PHP 5.2.0)
 ; 3. A number of predefined registry keys on Windows (As of PHP 5.2.0)
 ; 4. Current working directory (except CLI)
 ; 5. The web server's directory (for SAPI modules), or directory of PHP
 ; (otherwise in Windows)
 ; 6. The directory from the --with-config-file-path compile time option, or the
 ; Windows directory (C:windows or C:winnt)
 ; See the PHP docs for more specific information.
 ; https://php.net/configuration.file
 ; The syntax of the file is extremely simple.  Whitespace and lines
 ; beginning with a semicolon are silently ignored (as you probably guessed).
 ; Section headers (e.g. [Foo]) are also silently ignored, even though
 ; they might mean something in the future.
 ; Directives following the section heading [PATH=/www/mysite] only
 ; apply to PHP files in the /www/mysite directory.  Directives
 ; following the section heading [HOST=www.example.com] only apply to
 ; PHP files served from www.example.com.  Directives set in these
 ; special sections cannot be overridden by user-defined INI files or
 ; at runtime. Currently, [PATH=] and [HOST=] sections only work under
 ; CGI/FastCGI.
 ; https://php.net/ini.sections
 ; Directives are specified using the following syntax:
 ; directive = value
 ; Directive names are case sensitive - foo=bar is different from FOO=bar.
 ; Directives are variables used to configure PHP or PHP extensions.
 ; There is no name validation.  If PHP can't find an expected
 ; directive because it is not set or is mistyped, a default value will be used.
 ; The value can be a string, a number, a PHP constant (e.g. E_ALL or M_PI), one
 ; of the INI constants (On, Off, True, False, Yes, No and None) or an expression
 ; (e.g. E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE), a quoted string ("bar"), or a reference to a
 ; previously set variable or directive (e.g. ${foo})
 ; Expressions in the INI file are limited to bitwise operators and parentheses:
 ; |  bitwise OR
 ; ^  bitwise XOR
 ; &  bitwise AND
 ; ~  bitwise NOT
 ; !  boolean NOT
 ; Boolean flags can be turned on using the values 1, On, True or Yes.
 ; They can be turned off using the values 0, Off, False or No.
 ; An empty string can be denoted by simply not writing anything after the equal
 ; sign, or by using the None keyword:
 ;  foo =         ; sets foo to an empty string
 ;  foo = None    ; sets foo to an empty string
 ;  foo = "None"  ; sets foo to the string 'None'
 ; If you use constants in your value, and these constants belong to a
 ; dynamically loaded extension (either a PHP extension or a Zend extension),
 ; you may only use these constants after the line that loads the extension.
 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
 ; About this file ;
 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
 ; PHP comes packaged with two INI files. One that is recommended to be used
 ; in production environments and one that is recommended to be used in
 ; development environments.
 ; php.ini-production contains settings which hold security, performance and
 ; best practices at its core. But please be aware, these settings may break
 ; compatibility with older or less security conscience applications. We
 ; recommending using the production ini in production and testing environments.
 ; php.ini-development is very similar to its production variant, except it is
 ; much more verbose when it comes to errors. We recommend using the
 ; development version only in development environments, as errors shown to
 ; application users can inadvertently leak otherwise secure information.
 ; This is php.ini-production INI file.
 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
 ; Quick Reference ;
 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
 ; The following are all the settings which are different in either the production
 ; or development versions of the INIs with respect to PHP's default behavior.
 ; Please see the actual settings later in the document for more details as to why
 ; we recommend these changes in PHP's behavior.

 ; this to 1 will cause PHP CGI to fix its paths to conform to the spec.  A setting

 ;
 ; The path can be defined as:
 ;
 ;     session.save_path = "N;/path"
 ;
 ; where N is an integer.  Instead of storing all the session files in
 ; /path, what this will do is use subdirectories N-levels deep, and
 ; store the session data in those directories.  This is useful if
 ; your OS has problems with many files in one directory, and is
 ; a more efficient layout for servers that handle many sessions.
 ;
 ; NOTE 1: PHP will not create this directory structure automatically.
 ;         You can use the script in the ext/session dir for that purpose.
 ; NOTE 2: See the section on garbage collection below if you choose to
 ;         use subdirectories for session storage
 ;
 ; The file storage module creates files using mode 600 by default.
 ; You can change that by using

What does a .ini file do?

INI file is a type of file that contains configuration information in a simple, predefined format. It is used by Windows OSs and Windows-based applications to store information about the user's preferences and operating environment.

Do you need a PHP ini file?

It is where you declare changes to your PHP settings. The server is already configured with standard settings for PHP, which your site will use by default. Unless you need to change one or more settings, there is no need to create or modify a php. ini file.

How do I create a PHP ini file?

How to Manually Create a PHP..
Log into your cPanel account..
Open your File Manager..
Navigate to your public_html directory..
Create a new file..
Name it php.ini..
Edit the php.ini file you just created..
Copy and Paste the default php. ini code from the copy of the default version below..
Click Save Changes..

What is ini file example?

ini file is a file extension, a data format for configuration and setup files for software applications. These files contain configuration values and are very popularly used by the Windows Operating System. ini files look like properties files with additional features such as comments, and headers.
