What I'm trying to do is to make an installation file where the user enters the database, username, password, and host as a first step in a php system installation.

I know this is an old topic but I have a solution:
installer.php:
<?php
class Installer {
public $options;
public function __construct( $arr=array() ){
$this->options = $arr;
}
public function put( $key, $value ){
$this->options[$key] = $value;
}
public function convertOptions(){
$arr = $this->options;
$data = "<?php\n\n";
foreach( $arr as $key => $value ){
$data .= "define( '" . $key . "', '" . $value . "' );";
$data .= "\n\n";
}
return $data;
}
public function install( $filename, $dir='' ){
if( file_put_contents( $dir . $filename, $this->convertOptions() ) ){
return true;
}
return false;
}
}
anotherFile.php:
require_once installer.php;
$installer = new Installer();
$installer->put( 'DB_NAME', 'example' );
$installer->put( 'DB_USER', 'root' );
$installer->put( 'DB_PASS', '' );
$installer->install( 'config.php' );
created config.php:
<?php
define( 'DB_NAME', 'example' );
define( 'DB_USER', 'root' );
define( 'DB_PASS', '' );
