Making an interface to run a php file in Terminal

juniorj23 · Jun 9, 2012

i have created a script to run manually by dragging and dropping a file in terminal and hit enter and it would run. Is it posible to create a basic interface like a window pops up and all i do is click run and it will run the file, instead of dragging and dropping. thanks in advance.

Fire up the AppleScript Editor and paste in the following (adapted from this script):

Code:

set question to display dialog "Run script?" buttons {"Yes", "No"} default button 1
set answer to button returned of question

if answer is equal to "Yes" then
	do shell script "php <insert script name with path>"
end if

Replace "<insert script name with path>" with the full name and path of the script. Test it out and make sure it works.

When it works to your needs, go to File > Save As > File Format > Application and save it somewhere. The product will work like any other application - double click it, respond to the prompt and enjoy.
