- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.

Informations about the package http-send-file
HTTP send file
Sends a file with support for (multiple) range requests. It is able to throttle the download. It is quite small and simple.
This class resembles the php http_send_file from PHP pecl
See:
http://php.net/manual/en/function.http-send-file.php
Install
With composer add to your "require" section:
composer require shemgp/http-send-fileUsage example:
use diversen\sendfile;
$s = new sendfile();
// if you don't set type - we will try to guess it
$s->contentType('application/epub+zip');
// if you don't set disposition (file name user agent will see)
// we will make a file name from file
$s->contentDisposition('test.epub');
// chunks of 40960 bytes per 0.1 secs
// if you don't set this then the values below are the defaults
// approx 409600 bytes per sec
$s->throttle(0.1, 40960);
// file
$file = '/some/dir/test.epub';
// send the file
try {
$s->send($file);
} catch (\Exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
}
So you could just do like this:
use diversen\sendfile;
$s = new sendfile();
// file
$file = '/some/dir/test.epub';
// send the file
try {
$s->send($file);
} catch (\Exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
}
// but check the headers if it is not
// working as expected as the guessing
// of content-type does not always work
// correctly.
Without sending content-disposition header:
// without sending content-disposition header
// 2. param = false
try {
$s->send($file, false);
} catch (\Exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
}
Send file as inline:
// Send as inline
// 3. param = false
try {
$s->send($file, true, false);
} catch (\Exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
}
