The problem of packaging phar files that are too large.

Based on inspiration from an open source tool, stream packaging is used, and token_get_all is used to remove the blank spaces in the PHP files used. Now the packaged price is only 93k. Thank you for your attention.

I have a simple file, plus a symfony process package, and the packaged size is 125M, while the composer packaged so many files is only 1.6M, which is puzzling. Attached is the packaging code:

<code><?php

$pharFilename = 'deploy.phar';

if (file_exists($pharFilename)) {
    e('remove old file...');
    unlink($pharFilename);
}

$ignoreFiles = [
    'readme.md',
    'composer.json',
    'composer.lock',
    '.gitignore',
    basename(__FILE__),
];

e('putting files...');

try {
    $phar = new Phar(
        __DIR__.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$pharFilename,
        FilesystemIterator::CURRENT_AS_FILEINFO | FilesystemIterator::KEY_AS_FILENAME,
        $pharFilename
    );
} catch (UnexpectedValueException $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage(), PHP_EOL;
} catch (BadMethodCallException $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage(), PHP_EOL;
}

e('building...');
$phar->buildFromDirectory(__DIR__);

e('remove unused files...');
array_walk($ignoreFiles, function ($file) use ($phar) {
    $phar->delete($file);
});

e('set stub...');
$phar->setStub($phar->createDefaultStub('deploy.php', 'deploy.php'));

e('compress...');
$phar->compressFiles(Phar::BZ2);

e('build done.');

function e($string)
{
    echo $string, PHP_EOL;
}

I think you can convert the format to zip; then view the archive content through compression software; this way you can intuitively see the size of each component in the archive;

<code class="php">$phar->convertToExecutable(Phar::ZIP);</code>

Hope it can help you
