OBS: THE COMPLETE CODE IS HERE , but I made this adjustment to receive cookies

I'm trying to read the cookie files to make the requisite requests to get the result I expect, see my code:

$tokens = ['_twitter_sess', 'ct0', 'auth_token'];

        foreach (glob($this->_cookieFile) as $file) {
            $pointer = fopen($file, 'r');
        while (!feof($pointer)) {
        $line = fgets($pointer);

        foreach ($tokens as $token) {
          if (stripos($line, $token) !== false) {
            var_dump($line);
            curl_setopt_array($request, [
                                CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE  => $line,
                                CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER          => [
                          'origin: https://twitter.com',
                          'authorization: Bearer ' . $bearer,
                          'x-csrf-token: ' . $line,
                          'referer: https://twitter.com/',
                          'x-twitter-auth-type: OAuth2Session',
                          'x-twitter-active-user: yes',
                        ],
                         CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => http_build_query([
                              'challenges_passed'   => false,
                              'handles_challenges'  => 1,
                              'include_blocked_by'  => true,
                              'include_blocking'    => true,
                              'include_can_dm'      => true,
                              'include_followed_by' => true,
                              'include_mute_edge'   => true,
                              'skip_status'         => true,
                              'user_id'             => Session::get('username'),
                                ], '', '&', PHP_QUERY_RFC3986),
                            ]
                        );
            break;
          }
        }
        }
        }

But giving var_dump to $line , I get a return:

How to call, in Python, a function whose name is stored in a variable? Bar chart made in Python was "weird". Any suggestions on how to improve it?

If you really want an array, which for me does not make the slightest sense and it seems to me that this is a "XY problem". But anyway, just "explode" for every \t .

So, assuming it's in string:

$cookie = '# Netscape HTTP Cookie File

.example.org    TRUE    /   FALSE   1507286655  remember_me true
.example.org    TRUE    /   FALSE   1507286655  APISID  DijdSAOAjgwijnhFMndsjiejfdSDNSgfsikasASIfgijsowITITeoknsd
.example.org    TRUE    /   FALSE   1507286655  static_files    iy1aBf1JhQR';


$array = [];

foreach(array_slice(explode("\n", $cookie), 2) as $linha){

    $colunas = explode("\t", $linha);
    $array[$colunas[5]] = $colunas[6];

}

Result ( var_dump($array) ):

array(3) { ["remember_me"]=> string(5) "true " ["APISID"]=> string(58) "DijdSAOAjgwijnhFMndsjiejfdSDNSgfsikasASIfgijsowITITeoknsd " ["static_files"]=> string(11) "iy1aBf1JhQR" }

The idea is simple, ignore the first two lines ( array_slice(..., 2) ) then for each line break per tab ( \n ) and then get the name and value information.

Because I find this totally wrong:

You have native features for this in cURL, all features that use the cURL cookie management engine handle this Netscape format well.

You can use CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION to filter cookies if you are making a request to save such cookies.

You can also use CURLINFO_COOKIELIST to get the same information, filter it and save it, leaving only the data that matters.

You are storing unneeded data, making performance worse by having to filter it at all times, without any benefit.
