Get size of POST-request in PHP

问题:

Is there any way to get size of POST-request body in PHP?

回答1:

As simple as:

$size = (int) $_SERVER['CONTENT_LENGTH'];

Note that $_SERVER['CONTENT_LENGTH'] is only set in HTTP Requests via POST method. This is the raw value of the Content-Length header. See: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.13

In the case of file uploads, if you want to get the total size of uploaded files, you should iterate over the $_FILE elements to sum each $file['size']. The exact total size does not match the raw Content-Length value due to the encoding overhead of the POST data.

Also note that for file errors, you should check the $file['error'] code of each $_FILES element. For example, partial uploads will return error UPLOAD_ERR_PARTIAL and empty uploads will return UPLOAD_ERR_NO_FILE. See file upload errors documentation in the PHP manual.

My guess is, it's in the $_SERVER['CONTENT_LENGTH'].

And if you need that for error detection, peek into $_FILES['filename']['error'].

If you're trying to figure out whether or not a file upload failed, you should be using the PHP file error handling as shown at the link below. This is the most reliable way to detect file upload errors:

If you need the size of a POST request without any file uploads, you should be able to do so with something like this:

$request = http_build_query($_POST);
$size = strlen($request);

This might work :

$bytesInPostRequestBody = strlen(file_get_contents('php://input'));
// This does not count the bytes of the request's headers on its body.

I guess you are looking for $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA
