+title: Path-based tmpfile in PHP
+layout: post
+tags: php
+description: When paths are more useful than resources.
+---
+
+PHP has the [`tmpfile`][1] function for creating a file handle which will automatically be destroyed when it is closed
+or when the script ends. PHP also has the [`tempnam`][2] function which takes care of creating the file and returning
+the path, but doesn't automatically destroy the file.
+
+To get the best of both worlds (temp file + auto-destroy), I have found this useful:
+
+{% highlight php startinline %}
+function tmpfilepath() {
+    $path = stream_get_meta_data(tmpfile())['uri'];
+
+    register_shutdown_function(
+        function () use ($path) {
+            unlink($path);
+        }
+    );
+
+    return $path;
+}
+{% endhighlight %}
