While developing an example for the heartbeat component, i run into problems dealing with file handling in php. The problem comes from race conditions by reading and writing (updating) the same files. I must admit, it still needs some time to solve this problem in a sufficient way, but i'm on it.
Nevertheless, two shiny links where found by my preferred search engine and it would be a shame to not share them.

The first link has the title handling json like a boss in php. The page shows you how to encode and decode json files in php. What i liked very much, it also contains an error handling part. Shame on my side, i was not aware of the json_last_error function, now i am :-).

The second link headlines itself PHP File-handling tips and tricks and it contains a lot. I like, that the author puts back the SPLFileObject and SPLFileInfo into the limelight.
Even better, i wasn't aware of the available stream "php://temp". Thank you both!

I quickly created two bash functions to use rsync and ssh for syncing directories from the local host to a remote host and vice versa.

The two methods are available on my shell function repository. The two methods are called net_bazzline_sync_from_host and net_bazzline_sync_to_host. Enjoy it :-).

function net_bazzline_sync_from_host ()
{
    if [[ $# -eq 4 ]]; then
        USER="$1"
        HOST="$2"
        SOURCE="$3"
        DESTINATION="$4"
    else
        echo 'invalid number of variables provided'
        echo 'command user host source destination'
    fi

    rsync -avz -e ssh $USER@$HOST:$SOURCE $DESTINATION
}

A new kernel release and the sources where adapted. Everything is running fine so far :-).
