Scite Open Php Localhost

wiki

When working with SciTE and PHP, soon I saw a necessity: Open my PHP files through the webserver, not just open the file as-is.

I try to write a bash script to do that, but I get bored of this and make it with PHP.

So, I began to read about Lua and I think "Why not?"

So, there is !

function openbrowser()

	local f = props['FilePath']

	local s,e,path,file = string.find(f,'^(/var/www/)(.*)')

	if path == '/var/www/' then

		target = ("http://10.132.1.18/" .. file)

		firefox = ('mozilla-firefox ' .. target .. ' &')

		print("Opening  " .. target)

		--print(firefox)

		os.execute(firefox)

	else

		print("You must put your php files under /var/www in order to run them.")

	end	

end

I saved this file as localhost.lua, loaded it with my Lua startup file and put theses lines on my SciTE User Config:

command.go.subsystem.*.php=3

command.go.*.php=openbrowser()

(On my machine, the webserver root is /var/www. Note that this can be different on your own computer).
