PhpManager represents an authorization manager that stores authorization information in terms of a PHP script file.

The authorization data will be saved to and loaded from three files specified by $itemFile, $assignmentFile and $ruleFile.

PhpManager is mainly suitable for authorization data that is not too big (for example, the authorization data for a personal blog system). Use yii\rbac\DbManager for more complex authorization data.

Note that PhpManager is not compatible with facebooks HHVM because it relies on writing php files and including them afterwards which is not supported by HHVM.

For more details and usage information on PhpManager, see the guide article on security authorization.
