The example in this article describes how to control file download speed in php. Share it with everyone for your reference. The specific implementation method is as follows:
<?php /* * set here a limit of downloading rate (e.g. 10.20 Kb/s) */ $download_rate = 10.20; $download_file = 'download-file.zip'; $target_file = 'target-file.zip'; if(file_exists($download_file)){ /* headers */ header('Last-Modified:'.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s').'GMT'); header('Cache-control: private'); header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream'); header('Content-Length: '.filesize($download_file)); header('Content-Disposition: filename='.$target_file); /* flush content */ flush(); /* open file */ $fh = @fopen($download_file, 'r'); while(!feof($fh)){ /* send only current part of the file to browser */ print fread($fh, round($download_rate * 1024)); /* flush the content to the browser */ flush(); /* sleep for 1 sec */ sleep(1); } /* close file */ @fclose($fh); }else{ die('Fatal error: the '.$download_file.' file does not exist!'); } ?>
I hope this article will be helpful to everyone’s PHP programming design.
