HI , i want read file from another server , the file are xls and  i want read with phpspreadsheet ,  i try to use curl :

Code:
        $client = \Config\Services::curlrequest([
            'baseURI' => 'https://myserver/',
        ]);

        // GET file
        $client->get('480060_08_06_2022.xls');

        $code  = $this->response->getStatusCode();

the documentation doesn't explain how i can get the file ( to read or download) ,there is an example ?
i try to :

Code:
        $client = \Config\Services::curlrequest([
            'baseURI' => 'https://myserver/',
        ]);

        // GET file
        $client->request('GET','480060_08_06_2026.xls');

        $code  = $this->response->getStatusCode();
        $reason = $this->response->getReason();


        echo "<pre>";
        print_r($client->getBody());


But i return a 404

Edit :

i miss a x (xslx) now i haven't error , but how can i read the file ? print_r($client->getBody()) return a blank page

Why cannot i  use 
Code:
$file = new \CodeIgniter\Files\File($url);
?

I recommend you read the user guide, because it tells everything you need in most cases.
https://codeigniter4.github.io/CodeIgniter4/libraries/curlrequest.html#using-responses

PHP Code:
        $client = \Config\Services::curlrequest();

        $url      = 'https://www.cmu.edu/blackboard/files/evaluate/tests-example.xls';
        $response = $client->request('GET', $url);

        $content = $response->getBody();

        file_put_contents(WRITEPATH . 'sample.xls', $content);

sorry but 

Code:
file_put_contents
it is not written in this page, I love codeigniter , but i think documentation it needs to be much improved , we need examples like
 Build your first application part...

RE: Read file to another server - kenjis - 03-27-2024

file_put_contents() is a basic PHP function. It is not CodeIgniter's function.
CodeIgniter is build on PHP, so you can use PHP functions,
and you should know PHP.

Also, you can improve the user guide. Because CodeIgniter is made by contributions.
