PHP script to modify text at position in file

How do I go about 开发者_Go百科writing a php script that subtracts 10 from a 6 digit number at a specific location in a text file. For example, I have "030.00" at position 105-110 in a file and I want to subtract 010 to make it "020.00"

Being a standard format, I would recommend something like this:

$myFile = "yourFile.txt";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'r');
$fileContent = fread($fh, filesize($myFile));

$toBeReplaced = (float) substr($fileContents, 105, 6);
$newString = str_pad( ($toBeReplaced - 10), 6, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT );

$finalString = substr($fileContents, 0, 104) . $newString . substr($fileContents, 111, strlen ($fileContents) - 117);
fclose($fh);

$myFile = "newFile.txt";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("can't open file");
fwrite($fh, $finalString);
fclose($fh);

I hope I have calculated correct positions, as I cannot test it. But you get the ideea.

$val = (float) substr($str, 105, 5);
$val = number_format($val - 10, 2);
$str = substr_replace($str, $val, 105, 5);

This should do what you are looking for. The other choice would be a regex, but there could be room for error. If you know the exact position each time you could do it this way.

fixed the position on the substr

Open the file with fopen(). Do a foreach loop to loop through each line.

foreach ($lines as $line_num => $line) {

Then use substr() on the line in question to get the data you want and you'll have the data as a string. Convert it to an int and you can subtract from it.

Hope that helps!
