fputcsv
(PHP 5 >= 5.1.0)
fputcsv — 行を CSV 形式にフォーマットし、ファイルポインタに書き込む
説明
int fputcsv
( resource $handle
, array $fields
[, string $delimiter
[, string $enclosure
]] )
fputcsv() は、行(fields 配列として渡されたもの)を CSV としてフォーマットし、それを handle で指定したファイルに書き込みます (いちばん最後に改行を追加します)。
パラメータ
- handle
-
ファイルポインタは、有効なファイルポインタである必要があり、 fopen() または fsockopen() で正常にオープンされた (そしてまだ fclose() でクローズされていない) ファイルを指している必要があります。
- fields
-
値の配列。
- delimiter
-
オプションの delimiter はフィールド区切り文字 (一文字だけ) を指定します。デフォルトはカンマ (,) です。
- enclosure
-
オプションの enclosure はフィールドを囲む文字 (一文字だけ) を指定します。デフォルトは二重引用符 (") です。
返り値
書き込んだ文字列の長さを返します。失敗した場合は FALSE を返します。
例
例1 fputcsv() の例
<?php
$list = array (
'aaa,bbb,ccc,dddd',
'123,456,789',
'"aaa","bbb"'
);
$fp = fopen('file.csv', 'w');
foreach ($list as $line) {
fputcsv($fp, split(',', $line));
}
fclose($fp);
?>
注意
注意: マッキントッシュコンピュータ上で作成されたファイルを読み込む際に、 PHP が行末を認識できないという問題が発生した場合、 実行時の設定オプションauto_detect_line_endings を有効にする必要が生じるかもしれません。

To get the mssafe_csv function below to work using PHP5, I had to change line 50 from:
fputcsv($fp, $line);
to:
fputcsv($fp, split(',', $line));
Otherwise works great! Thanks for the function.

TAB delimiting.
Using fputcsv to output a CSV with a tab delimiter is a little tricky since the delimiter field only takes one character.
The answer is to use the chr() function. The ascii code for tab is 9, so chr(9) returns a tab character.
<?php
fputcsv($fp, $foo, '\t'); //won't work
fputcsv($fp, $foo, ' '); //won't work
fputcsv($fp, $foo, chr(9)); //works
?>
==================
it should be:
<?php
fputcsv($fp, $foo, "\t");
?>
you just forgot that single quotes are literal...meaning whatever you put there that's what will come out so '\t' would be same as 't' because \ in that case would be only used for escaping but if you use double quotes then that would work.

I've created a function for quickly generating CSV files that work with Microsoft applications. In the field I learned a few things about generating CSVs that are not always obvious. First, since PHP is generally *nix-based, it makes sense that the line endings are always \n instead of \r\n. However, certain Microsoft programs (I'm looking at you, Access 97), will fail to recognize the CSV properly unless each line ends with \r\n. So this function changes the line endings accordingly. Secondly, if the first column heading / value of the CSV file begins with uppercase ID, certain Microsoft programs (ahem, Excel 2007) will interpret the file as being in the SYLK format rather than CSV, as described here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/323626
This function accommodates for that as well, by forcibly enclosing that first value in quotes (when this doesn't occur automatically). It would be fairly simple to modify this function to use another delimiter if need be and I leave that as an exercise to the reader. So quite simply, this function is used for outputting CSV data to a CSV file in a way that is safe for use with Windows applications. It takes two parameters + one optional parameter: the location of where the file should be saved, an array of data rows, and an optional array of column headings. (Technically you could omit the headings array and just include it as the first row of the data, but it is often useful to keep this data stored in different arrays in practice.)
<?php
function mssafe_csv($filepath, $data, $header = array())
{
if ( $fp = fopen($filepath, 'w') ) {
$show_header = true;
if ( empty($header) ) {
$show_header = false;
reset($data);
$line = current($data);
if ( !empty($line) ) {
reset($line);
$first = current($line);
if ( substr($first, 0, 2) == 'ID' && !preg_match('/["\\s,]/', $first) ) {
array_shift($data);
array_shift($line);
if ( empty($line) ) {
fwrite($fp, "\"{$first}\"\r\n");
} else {
fwrite($fp, "\"{$first}\",");
fputcsv($fp, $line);
fseek($fp, -1, SEEK_CUR);
fwrite($fp, "\r\n");
}
}
}
} else {
reset($header);
$first = current($header);
if ( substr($first, 0, 2) == 'ID' && !preg_match('/["\\s,]/', $first) ) {
array_shift($header);
if ( empty($header) ) {
$show_header = false;
fwrite($fp, "\"{$first}\"\r\n");
} else {
fwrite($fp, "\"{$first}\",");
}
}

Alright, after playing a while, I'm confident the following replacement function works in all cases, including the ones for which the native fputcsv function fails. If fputcsv fails to work for you (particularly with mysql csv imports), try this function as a drop-in replacement instead.
Arguments to pass in are exactly the same as for fputcsv, though I have added an additional $mysql_null boolean which allows one to turn php null's into mysql-insertable nulls (by default, this add-on is disabled, thus working identically to fputcsv [except this one works!]).
<?php
function fputcsv2 ($fh, array $fields, $delimiter = ',', $enclosure = '"', $mysql_null = false) {
$delimiter_esc = preg_quote($delimiter, '/');
$enclosure_esc = preg_quote($enclosure, '/');
$output = array();
foreach ($fields as $field) {
if ($field === null && $mysql_null) {
$output[] = 'NULL';
continue;
}
$output[] = preg_match("/(?:${delimiter_esc}|${enclosure_esc}|\s)/", $field) ? (
$enclosure . str_replace($enclosure, $enclosure . $enclosure, $field) . $enclosure
) : $field;
}
fwrite($fh, join($delimiter, $output) . "\n");
}
// the _EXACT_ LOAD DATA INFILE command to use
// (if you pass in something different for $delimiter
// and/or $enclosure above, change them here too;
// but _LEAVE ESCAPED BY EMPTY!_).
/*
LOAD DATA INFILE
'/path/to/file.csv'
INTO TABLE
my_table
FIELDS TERMINATED BY
','
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY
'"'
ESCAPED BY
''
LINES TERMINATED BY
'\n'

I found that the fputcsv examples for PHP 4 missed one thing, that was proper handling of the $enclosure value when it is a quote (if a quote is passed in a field, and it is delimited by a slash, it will be improperly handled by the functions submitted here).
My modified function was built using the actual PHP5 source for fputcsv, with the addition of properly reacting to the existence of a delimited quote in the field being processed.
<?php
if (!function_exists('fputcsv')) {
function fputcsv(&$handle, $fields = array(), $delimiter = ',', $enclosure = '"') {
// Sanity Check
if (!is_resource($handle)) {
trigger_error('fputcsv() expects parameter 1 to be resource, ' .
gettype($handle) . ' given', E_USER_WARNING);
return false;
}
if ($delimiter!=NULL) {
if( strlen($delimiter) < 1 ) {
trigger_error('delimiter must be a character', E_USER_WARNING);
return false;
}elseif( strlen($delimiter) > 1 ) {
trigger_error('delimiter must be a single character', E_USER_NOTICE);
}
/* use first character from string */
$delimiter = $delimiter[0];
}
if( $enclosure!=NULL ) {
if( strlen($enclosure) < 1 ) {
trigger_error('enclosure must be a character', E_USER_WARNING);
return false;
}elseif( strlen($enclosure) > 1 ) {
trigger_error('enclosure must be a single character', E_USER_NOTICE);
}
/* use first character from string */
$enclosure = $enclosure[0];
}
$i = 0;
$csvline = '';
$escape_char = '\\';
$field_cnt = count($fields);
$enc_is_quote = in_array($enclosure, array('"',"'"));
reset($fields);
foreach( $fields AS $field ) {
/* enclose a field that contains a delimiter, an enclosure character, or a newline */
if( is_string($field) && (
strpos($field, $delimiter)!==false ||
strpos($field, $enclosure)!==false ||
strpos($field, $escape_char)!==false ||
strpos($field, "\n")!==false ||
strpos($field, "\r")!==false ||
strpos($field, "\t")!==false ||
strpos($field, ' ')!==false ) ) {
$field_len = strlen($field);
$escaped = 0;
$csvline .= $enclosure;
for( $ch = 0; $ch < $field_len; $ch++ ) {
if( $field[$ch] == $escape_char && $field[$ch+1] == $enclosure && $enc_is_quote ) {
continue;
}elseif( $field[$ch] == $escape_char ) {
$escaped = 1;
}elseif( !$escaped && $field[$ch] == $enclosure ) {
$csvline .= $enclosure;
}else{
$escaped = 0;
}
$csvline .= $field[$ch];
}
$csvline .= $enclosure;

{
foreach ($aRow as $iIdx=>$sCell)
$aRow[$iIdx] = str_replace($sEnclosure, $sEnclosure.$sEnclosure, $sCell);

This function is a replacement for PHP 4. It basically takes an array you pass it, and creates a delimited string. If you want ot use the key as the field name, you can tell the second paramater to use the key. The last is the delimiter you want each value to be seperated by. Should be pretty straight forward.
<?php
function generate_csv_data($data,$use_key=false,$delm=',') {
$output = NULL;
if(is_array($data)) {
if($use_key == false) {
if(isset($data[0]) && is_array($data[0])) {
foreach($data as $key) {
$output .= implode($delm,$key);
$output .= "\n";
}
} else {
$output .= implode("$delm", $data)."\n";
}
} else {
foreach($data as $key => $value) {
$output .= "$key{$delm}$value\n";
}
}
} else {
$output = $data;
}
if(empty($output)) {
trigger_error('OUTPUT WAS EMPTY!', E_USER_ERROR);
return false;
}
return $output;

Compact fputcsv function(), for Php version >= 4.0.5 and < 5.1.
Not a "good programming practice", but if you need save bytes ...
<?php
function fputcsv($fp, $arr, $del=",", $enc="\"") {
fwrite($fp, (count($arr)) ? $enc . implode("{$enc}{$del}{$enc}", str_replace("\"", "\"\"", $arr)) . $enc . "\n" : "\n");

If you need to save the output to a variable (e.g. for use within a framework) you can write to a temporary memory-wrapper and retrieve it's contents:
<?php
// output up to 5MB is kept in memory, if it becomes bigger it will automatically be written to a temporary file
$csv = fopen('php://temp/maxmemory:'. (5*1024*1024), 'r+');
fputcsv($csv, array('blah','blah'));
rewind($csv);
// put it all in a variable
$output = stream_get_contents($csv);
?>

If you need to send a CSV file directly to the browser, without writing in an external file, you can open the output and use fputcsv on it..
<?php
$out = fopen('php://output', 'w');
fputcsv($out, array('this','is some', 'csv "stuff", you know.'));
fclose($out);

Here is an adaptation to boonerunner's function for fputcsv.
It uses a 2-dimensional array.
Each sub-array is a line in the csv file which then ends up being seperated by commas.
<?php
function fputcsv($filePointer,$dataArray,$delimiter=",",$enclosure="\""){
// Write a line to a file
// $filePointer = the file resource to write to
// $dataArray = the data to write out
// $delimeter = the field separator
// Build the string
$string = "";
// for each array element, which represents a line in the csv file...
foreach($dataArray as $line){
// No leading delimiter
$writeDelimiter = FALSE;
foreach($line as $dataElement){
// Replaces a double quote with two double quotes
$dataElement=str_replace("\"", "\"\"", $dataElement);
// Adds a delimiter before each field (except the first)
if($writeDelimiter) $string .= $delimiter;
// Encloses each field with $enclosure and adds it to the string
$string .= $enclosure . $dataElement . $enclosure;
// Delimiters are used every time except the first.
$writeDelimiter = TRUE;
}
// Append new line
$string .= "\n";
} // end foreach($dataArray as $line)
// Write the string to the file
fwrite($filePointer,$string);
}

// $filePointer = the file resource to write to

What about cells that span multiple lines? This function allows for cells to contain newlines:
<?php
function fputcsv($handle, $row, $fd=',', $quot='"')
{
$str='';
foreach ($row as $cell)
{
$cell = str_replace($quot, $quot.$quot, $cell);
if (strchr($cell, $fd) !== FALSE || strchr($cell, $quot) !== FALSE || strchr($cell, "\n") !== FALSE)
{
$str .= $quot.$cell.$quot.$fd;
}
else
{
$str .= $cell.$fd;
}
}
fputs($handle, substr($str, 0, -1)."\n");
return strlen($str);
}
?>

[EDIT BY danbrown AT php DOT net: This is a revised function with a few bugfixes and improvements done by this author. The original function example was written by arthur AT mclean DOT ws, and rewritten between by arthur AT korn DOT ch.]
- when calling str_replace(), you must assign $cell the return value or nothing gets saved
- when using strchr(), you should explicitly check !== FALSE, or it'll treat a return value of 0 (found the character at string position 0) as FALSE
- Excel seems to quote not only fields containing commas, but fields containing quotes as well, so I've added another strchr() for quotes; I'm not saying Microsoft knows the correct way for sure, but it seems reasonable to me
- the original function put a space after each comma; that might be legal, I don't know, but I've never seen it (and I don't think it is, because then how would you indicate you wanted a field to start with a space other than by quoting it?)
- the original function didn't correctly return the length of the data outputted
Here's the function, fixed up a bit:
<?php
function fputcsv($handle, $row, $fd=',', $quot='"')
{
$str='';
foreach ($row as $cell) {
$cell=str_replace(Array($quot, "\n"),
Array($quot.$quot, ''),
$cell);
if (strchr($cell, $fd)!==FALSE || strchr($cell, $quot)!==FALSE) {
$str.=$quot.$cell.$quot.$fd;
} else {
$str.=$cell.$fd;
}
}
fputs($handle, substr($str, 0, -1)."\n");
return strlen($str);
}
?>
