file_save_data

file_save_data($data, $destination = NULL, $replace = FILE_EXISTS_RENAME)

Saves a file to the specified destination and creates a database entry.

Parameters

string $data: A string containing the contents of the file.

string|null $destination: (optional) A string containing the destination URI. This must be a stream wrapper URI. If no value or NULL is provided, a randomized name will be generated and the file will be saved using Drupal's default files scheme, usually "public://".

int $replace: (optional) The replace behavior when the destination file already exists. Possible values include:

  • FILE_EXISTS_REPLACE: Replace the existing file. If a managed file with the destination name exists, then its database entry will be updated. If no database entry is found, then a new one will be created.
  • FILE_EXISTS_RENAME: (default) Append _{incrementing number} until the filename is unique.
  • FILE_EXISTS_ERROR: Do nothing and return FALSE.

Return value

\Drupal\file\FileInterface|false A file entity, or FALSE on error.
