# filters/ReplaceTokensWithFile.php

## \ReplaceTokensWithFile
jump to top

Package: phing\filters

Replaces tokens in the original input with the contents of a file.

The file to be used is controlled by the name of the token which corresponds to the basename of the file to be used together with the optional pre and postfix strings that is possible to set.

By default all HTML entities in the file is replaced by the corresponding HTML entities. This behaviour can be controlled by the "translatehtml" parameter.

Supported parameters are:

     prefix         string Text to be prefixed to token before using as filename
     postfix        string Text to be prefixed to token before using as filename
     dir            string The directory where the files should be read from
     translatehtml  bool   If we should translate all HTML entities in the file.

Example:

Implements
  \ChainableReader
Parent(s)
  \BaseParamFilterReader < \BaseFilterReader < \FilterReader < \Reader

### Methods

`__construct( \Reader $in = null ) : void`
inherited

Constructor used by Phing's introspection mechanism.

Inherited from: \BaseFilterReader::__construct()\BaseParamFilterReader::__construct()

The original filter reader is only used for chaining purposes, never for filtering purposes (and indeed it would be useless for filtering purposes, as it has no real data to filter). ChainedReaderHelper uses this placeholder instance to create a chain of real filters.

Parameters

$in | \Reader |

`_initialize( ) : void`

Initializes parameters This method is only called when this filter is used through a tag in build file.

`chain( object $reader ) : object`

Creates a new ReplaceTokensWithFile using the passed in Reader for instantiation.

Parameters

Name | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
$reader | object | A Reader object providing the underlying stream. Must not be `null`.

Returns

Type | Description
--- | ---
object | A new filter based on this configuration, but filtering the specified reader
