内置Web Server
CLI SAPI 提供了一个内置的Web服务器。
这个内置的Web服务器主要用于本地开发使用，不可用于线上产品环境。
URI请求会被发送到PHP所在的的工作目录（Working Directory）进行处理，除非你使用了-t参数来自定义不同的目录。
如果请求未指定执行哪个PHP文件，则默认执行目录内的index.php 或者 index.html。如果这两个文件都不存在，服务器会返回404错误。
当你在命令行启动这个Web Server时，如果指定了一个PHP文件，则这个文件会作为一个“路由”脚本，意味着每次请求都会先执行这个脚本。如果这个脚本返回 false ，那么直接返回请求的文件（例如请求静态文件不作任何处理）。否则会把输出返回到浏览器。
示例 #1 启动Web服务器
$ cd ~/public_html $ php -S localhost:8000
终端窗口会显示:
PHP 5.4.0 Development Server started at Thu Jul 21 10:43:28 2011 Listening on localhost:8000 Document root is /home/me/public_html Press Ctrl-C to quit
接着访问http://localhost:8000/和http://localhost:8000/myscript.html，窗口会显示：
PHP 5.4.0 Development Server started at Thu Jul 21 10:43:28 2011 Listening on localhost:8000 Document root is /home/me/public_html Press Ctrl-C to quit. [Thu Jul 21 10:48:48 2011] ::1:39144 GET /favicon.ico - Request read [Thu Jul 21 10:48:50 2011] ::1:39146 GET / - Request read [Thu Jul 21 10:48:50 2011] ::1:39147 GET /favicon.ico - Request read [Thu Jul 21 10:48:52 2011] ::1:39148 GET /myscript.html - Request read [Thu Jul 21 10:48:52 2011] ::1:39149 GET /favicon.ico - Request read
示例 #2 启动时指定根目录
$ cd ~/public_html $ php -S localhost:8000 -t foo/
终端窗口显示：
PHP 5.4.0 Development Server started at Thu Jul 21 10:50:26 2011 Listening on localhost:8000 Document root is /home/me/public_html/foo Press Ctrl-C to quit
示例 #3 使用路由（Router）脚本
请求图片直接显示图片，请求HTML则显示“Welcome to PHP”
<?php
// router.php
if (preg_match('/\.(?:png|jpg|jpeg|gif)$/', $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]))
return false; // 直接返回请求的文件
else {
echo "<p>Welcome to PHP</p>";
}
?>
$ php -S localhost:8000 router.php
执行之后终端显示：
PHP 5.4.0 Development Server started at Thu Jul 21 10:53:19 2011 Listening on localhost:8000 Document root is /home/me/public_html Press Ctrl-C to quit. [Thu Jul 21 10:53:45 2011] ::1:55801 GET /mylogo.jpg - Request read [Thu Jul 21 10:53:52 2011] ::1:55803 GET /abc.html - Request read [Thu Jul 21 10:53:52 2011] ::1:55804 GET /favicon.ico - Request read
示例 #4 Checking for CLI Web Server Use
To reuse a framework router script during development with the CLI web server and later also with a production web server:
<?php
// router.php
if (php_sapi_name() == 'cli-server') {
/* route static assets and return false */
}
/* go on with normal index.php operations */
?>
$ php -S localhost:8000 router.php
示例 #5 Handling Unsupported File Types
If you need to serve a static resource whose MIME type is not handled by the CLI web server, use:
<?php
// router.php
$path = pathinfo($_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"]);
if ($path["extension"] == "el") {
header("Content-Type: text/x-script.elisp");
readfile($_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"]);
}
else {
return FALSE;
}
?>
$ php -S localhost:8000 router.php
示例 #6 Accessing the CLI Web Server From Remote Machines
You can make the web server accessible on port 8000 to any interface with:
$ php -S 0.0.0.0:8000
警告
The built-in Web Server should not be used on a public network.

In order to set project specific configuration options, simply add a php.ini file to your project, and then run the built-in server with this flag:
php -S localhost:8000 -c php.ini
This is especially helpful for settings that cannot be set at runtime (ini_set()).

I painfully experienced behaviour that I can't seem to find documented here so I wanted to save everyone from repeating my mistake by giving the following heads up:
When starting php -S on a mac (in my case macOS Sierra) to host a local server, I had trouble with connecting from legacy Java.
As it turned out, if you started the php server with
"php -S localhost:80"
the server will be started with ipv6 support only!
To access it via ipv4, you need to change the start up command like so:
"php -S 127.0.0.1:80"
which starts server in ipv4 mode only.

It’s not mentioned directly, and may not be obvious, but you can also use this to create a virtual host. This, of course, requires the help of your hosts file.
Here are the steps:
1 /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 www.example.com
2 cd [root folder]
php -S www.example.com:8000
3 Browser:
http://www.example.com:8000/index.php
Combined with a simple SQLite database, you have a very handy testing environment.

If your URI contains a dot, you'll lose the $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] variable, when using the built-in webserver.
I wanted to write an API, and use .json ending in the URI-s, but then the framework's routing mechanism broke, and it took a lot of time to discover that the reason behind it was its router relying on $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'].

On Windows you may find useful to have a phpserver.bat file in shell:sendto with the folowing:
explorer http://localhost:8888
rem check if arg is file or dir
if exist "%~1\" (
php -S localhost:8888 -t "%~1"
) else (
php -S localhost:8888 -t "%~dp1"
)
then for fast web testing you only have to SendTo a file or folder to this bat and it will open your explorer and run the server.

To output debugging information on the command line you can write output to php://stdout:
<?php
$path = $_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"];
file_put_contents("php://stdout", "\nRequested: $path");
echo "<p>Hello World</p>";
?>

Listen on all addresses of IPv4:
php -S 0.0.0.0:80
Listen on all addresses of IPv6:
php -S [::0]:80

To send environment variable as long as with PHP built-in web server, type like this.
~$ MYENV=dev php -d variables_order=EGPCS -S 0.0.0.0:8000
On PHP script we can check with this code.
<?php
echo getenv('MYENV'); // print dev

I fiddled around with the internal webserver and had issues regarding handling static files, that do not contain a dot and a file extension.
The webserver responded with 200 without any content for files with URIs like "/testfile".
I am not certain if this is a bug, but I created a router.php that now does not use the "return false;" operation in order to pass thru the static file by the internal webserver.
Instead I use fpassthru() to do that.
In addition to that, my router.php can be configured to...
- ... have certain index files, when requesting a directory
- ... configure regex routes, so that, if the REQUEST_URI matches the regex, a certain file or directory is requested instead. (something you would do with nginx config or .htaccess ModRewrite)
Maybe someone finds this helpful.
================================
<?php
$indexFiles = ['index.html', 'index.php'];
$routes = [
'^/api(/.*)?$' => '/index.php'
];
$requestedAbsoluteFile = dirname(__FILE__) . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
// check if the the request matches one of the defined routes
foreach ($routes as $regex => $fn)
{
if (preg_match('%'.$regex.'%', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))
{
$requestedAbsoluteFile = dirname(__FILE__) . $fn;
break;
}
}
// if request is a directory call check if index files exist
if (is_dir($requestedAbsoluteFile))
{
foreach ($indexFiles as $filename)
{
$fn = $requestedAbsoluteFile.'/'.$filename;
if (is_file($fn))
{
$requestedAbsoluteFile = $fn;
break;
}
}
}
// if requested file does not exist or is directory => 404
if (!is_file($requestedAbsoluteFile))
{
header($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'].' 404 Not Found');
printf('"%s" does not exist', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
return true;
}
// if requested file is'nt a php file
if (!preg_match('/\.php$/', $requestedAbsoluteFile)) {
header('Content-Type: '.mime_content_type($requestedAbsoluteFile));
$fh = fopen($requestedAbsoluteFile, 'r');
fpassthru($fh);
fclose($fh);
return true;
}
// if requested file is php, include it
include_once $requestedAbsoluteFile;

Just a note to people who also use windows 8.1, or anyone who has had this problem when running the using the PHP server CLI.
`PHP -S localhost:8000 -t /public` <-- Not going to work.
`PHP -S localhost:8000 -t public` <-- Works!
And there is something else up in the notes saying something about you can't serve a project folder and a router file. Well, actually you can! At least for me.
`PHP -S localhost:8000 router.php -t public` <-- Perhaps someone tries this and it doesn't work.
`PHP -S localhost:8000 -t public router.php` <-- Works!

For serving static content like .css or .js and otherwise using a router (for me it was index.php) this worked out of the box for me:
php -S localhost:8000
Due to my router file was index.php. But
php -S localhost:8000 index.php
did not work, because my static files are not served via my router.

$_SERVER['SERVER_ADDR'] is not defined when using php as the built-in commandline web server, so you can not use $_SERVER['SERVER_ADDR'] to detect the Server's IP address.
P.S.: This is tested on Windows with PHP 7.1 on 2016-12-22.
Below is the printed $_SERVER variable.

You can also print messages to the server's STDOUT via error_log().
Also the documentation doesn't make it clear that when you use router script if a PHP file is requested and you return false, the PHP file will be served (i.e. you do not need to load and eval it manually).

If you have trouble with a project using both dynamic routes containing dots (giving unexpected 404 errors) and static file hosting paste this in your index.php
// Support cli server for local development
if (php_sapi_name() === 'cli-server') {
$fileName = __DIR__.parse_url($_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"], PHP_URL_PATH);
if (file_exists($fileName) && !is_dir($fileName)) return false;
}
Then run the internal server directly on the file:
php -S 127.0.0.1 index.php

Note: The built-in web server has a file size limit. For files larger than 5 GB, it will always serve a "File not found" error page.
