Tilde(~) in Path Breaks CI4 (used in iCloud Drive Path) - jasonzig - 03-05-2019
CI4 breaks when it encounters a path that has a tilde(~) in it.
Unfortunately, Apple uses tildes in its iCloud Drive path name, which is rendered as:
Code:
/Users/username/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocsWhen using PHP's built-in web server on MacOS:

cd /Users/moo/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/Sites/ci4b1/

Does anyone have an idea of how we can work around this?
The error occurs in the final line of
/Users/moo/Desktop/folder_with_a_tilde~/ci4b1/vendor/codeigniter4/framework/system/Config/Config.php
in createClass where we are creating a new class instance using the name that was passed in.
vendor/codeigniter4/framework/system/Config/Config::createClass(string $name):
Code:
/**
* Find configuration class and create instance
*
* @param string $name Classname
*
* @return mixed|null
*/
private static function createClass(string $name)
{
if (class_exists($name))
{
return new $name();
}
$locator = Services::locator();
$file = $locator->locateFile($name, 'Config');
if (empty($file))
{
return null;
}
$name = $locator->getClassname($file);
if (empty($name))
{
return null;
}
CODE DIES HERE:
return new $name();

From what I have read it's a short cut for you home folder.

Yes, it is the actual path to the mount points for MacOS iCloud Drive/ and iOS "Files" app.
Since that remote storage mechanism is so useful for developers using MacOS,
I'm trying to figure out how to get CodeIgniter 4 working there.
RE: Tilde(~) in Path Breaks CI4 (used in iCloud Drive Path) - jasonzig - 03-07-2019
Anyone have an idea for a workaround?
RE: Tilde(~) in Path Breaks CI4 (used in iCloud Drive Path) - InsiteFX - 03-07-2019
If you can get the path to the short cut then you should be able to just enter that
as the url link.

Read my post and you'll see that I've done that.
RE: Tilde(~) in Path Breaks CI4 (used in iCloud Drive Path) - ciadmin - 03-07-2019
Can you use a route for this, so that the tilde is not in the URL?
RE: Tilde(~) in Path Breaks CI4 (used in iCloud Drive Path) - kilishan - 03-07-2019
Well, the obvious answer is don't store it in the iCloud drive
Here's a workaround to expand the filenames, though I'm not sure how many different places would need to use that. I'm also unconvinced it's a good thing to have in core as it feels like it could be a security issue, though I'd have to think for a bit on when it could be safe and when not.
RE: Tilde(~) in Path Breaks CI4 (used in iCloud Drive Path) - Francesco Smelzo - 03-05-2023
The issue is caused by the sanitizeFilename method on line 301 of the file vendor/codeigniter4/framework/system/Autoloader/Autoloader.php. The function transforms a path such as /com~apple~CloudDocs/sites, which is perfectly legitimate on a Mac, into /comappleCloudDocs/sites, rendering all paths invalid.
I solved the issue by changing line 307:
PHP Code:
$filename = preg_replace('/[^0-9\p{L}\s\/\-\_\.\:\\\\]/u', '', $filename);
PHP Code:
$filename = preg_replace('/[^0-9\p{L}\s\/\-\_\.\:\\\\~]/u', '', $filename);
