Generating PHP Source Code

Since version 4.3, PHP LSAPI has been capable of generating formatted PHP source code in HTML, allowing users to view the source code for these files through a web browser.

You can set LSPHP to generate source code using the command line option -s. For example:

$SERVER_ROOT/fcgi-bin/lsphp5 -s

If you add “-s” at the end of the Command setting in the WebAdmin console (Configuration > External App > your external application > Command), that external application will now generate PHP source code in HTML for the files it reads. You can now set up a script handler (WebAdmin console > Configuration > Script Handler) pointing to that external application, directing all files with a certain suffix (“phpsc”, for example) to the external application that will generate their source code.
