通过Apache服务器从SmartFtp运行php文件

I am currently working alongside a project team for the development of a website and we are using SmartFtp for file sharing.

Does anyone know how to compile/edit php files through SmartFtp? I.e. using apache for compiling and atom for editing.

Please note: I have already tried copying the files into the htdocs folder within xampp but had no luck. The php files did not successfully copy into the htdocs folder.

Thanks again

This should be a comment, but its a bit long.

I am really confused by your question.

how to compile/edit php files

PHP uses a run-time compiler. Are you talking about Roadsend or HipHop or something else?

Presumably you don't give a damn about your code integrity, managing conflicting code changes, version control or the security of your development environment. It's 2017. FTP was way past its sell-by date before the turn of the millenium.

compile/edit php files through SmartFtp

It's an FTP client. Just one of many things you don't use to compile or edit files (others include an avacado, a tennis shoe, scissors, a sunset...).

Presumably you are using this client to connect to a server - which you've told us nothing about. You probably want to do the collaborative bit of your code management (if that is what you are asking) on the server.

(from comments)

Development sever with multiple people pushing edits ad hoc while they code through an Ftp server.

That's not a "development server" that's a recipe for code armageddon.

Fair warning...

This is a terrible way to host a project. Each developer should have their own isolated project installation. Even though you only have a few developers, it's only a matter of time before you get a collision and somebody loses work.

Using FTP is also a terrible idea. It is completely insecure.

That said, you've got a couple options:

• If your dev server is a *nix flavor, you can probably use SSHFS to mount the remote directory on your local machine. This will allow you to edit the remote files live, as if they were any other regular local file. This is secure and relatively easy to set up, but you may find it a bit too slow for anything but small projects.
• Use FTPS/SFTP/SCP to push files to the remote server when you save them locally. I'm not terribly familiar with Atom, but many IDEs (like NetBeans and PHPStorm) can be configured to automatically FTPS/SFTP/SCP push changed files to remote servers. Just save locally as you normally would, and in the background, the IDE will perform an FTPS/SFTP/SCP push. Do not use FTP. If your server has FTP configured, it probably also has SFTP and/or FTPS configured.
• Create your own development environment. Host your own site on your own machine so that you don't collide. You can run Apache/Nginx/PHP/MySQL directly on your machine, in a virtual box, or even a docker container. This is the best and most flexible option, but also requires the most effort to get running.
