PHP - Copy image to my server direct from URL

I want to have PHP code for following.

Suppose I have one image URL, for example, http://www.google.co.in/intl/en_com/images/srpr/logo1w.png

If I run one script, this image will be copied and put on my server within folder having 777 rights.

Is it possible? If yea, can you please give direction for same?

Thanks,

Ian

Two ways, if you're using PHP5 (or higher)

copy('http://www.google.co.in/intl/en_com/images/srpr/logo1w.png', '/tmp/file.png');

If not, use file_get_contents

//Get the file
$content = file_get_contents("http://www.google.co.in/intl/en_com/images/srpr/logo1w.png");
//Store in the filesystem.
$fp = fopen("/location/to/save/image.png", "w");
fwrite($fp, $content);
fclose($fp);

function getimg($url) {         
    $headers[] = 'Accept: image/gif, image/x-bitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg';              
    $headers[] = 'Connection: Keep-Alive';         
    $headers[] = 'Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8';         
    $user_agent = 'php';         
    $process = curl_init($url);         
    curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);         
    curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);         
    curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $user_agent); //check here         
    curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30);         
    curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);         
    curl_setopt($process, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);         
    $return = curl_exec($process);         
    curl_close($process);         
    return $return;

$imgurl = 'http://www.foodtest.ru/images/big_img/sausage_3.jpg'; 
$imagename= basename($imgurl);
if(file_exists('./tmp/'.$imagename)){continue;} 
$image = getimg($imgurl); 
file_put_contents('tmp/'.$imagename,$image);       

$url="http://www.google.co.in/intl/en_com/images/srpr/logo1w.png";
$contents=file_get_contents($url);
$save_path="/path/to/the/dir/and/image.jpg";
file_put_contents($save_path,$contents);

you must have allow_url_fopen set to on

This SO thread will solve your problem. Solution in short:

$url = 'http://www.google.co.in/intl/en_com/images/srpr/logo1w.png';
$img = '/my/folder/my_image.gif';
file_put_contents($img, file_get_contents($url));

$url = "http://www.example/images/image.gif";
$save_name = "image.gif";
$save_directory = "/var/www/example/downloads/";

if(is_writable($save_directory)) {
    file_put_contents($save_directory . $save_name, file_get_contents($url));
} else {
    exit("Failed to write to directory "{$save_directory}");
}
