I am trying to write some JSON data in a view file in CodeIgniter.
But it shows an error:
Message: fopen() [function.fopen]: Filename cannot be empty
The controller function is as follows:
public function write_in_a_view_file() {
$data = array();
$data['title'] = "Write This Title In a View File";
$view_file = $this->load->view('result.php');
$fp = fopen($view_file, 'w');
fwrite($fp, json_encode($data));
fclose($fp);
}
You can use the CodeIgniter File Helper for this.
public function write_in_a_view_file() {
$data = array();
$data['title'] = "Write This Title In a View File";
$this->load->helper('file');
$new_file_path = base_url() . '/path/to/file.php'; // modify this line to point to the actual location of the file
write_file($new_file_path, json_encode($data));
}
fopen function takes 2 arguments, the first one must be the file name, while you are passing nothing to the first param.
