<?php /* PHP_Dir Version 0.5 Ryan Flynn (ryan@ryanflynn || DALnet->#php->pizza_milkshake) Monday, June 25 2001 This is a class to simplify the listing of classes and allows for commandline-like wildcards (i.e. '*.txt'). The class currently returns arrays of matching files or directories at the user-specified path. This class has been tested with PHP 4.0.5 on Windows 2k/IIS. I can't guarentee anything, but will act upon any bug reports you send me. Examples: ================================================================ This example returns all *.txt files in c:/ require("class.dir.php"); $d=new PHP_Dir(); //create a new PHP_Dir object $d->set_mask("*.txt"); //set the default mask to '*.txt' $files=$d->list_files("c:/"); //change this if you're a *nix or Linux user // the above two lines could have been put into one like so: // $files=$d->list_dirs("c:/", "*.txt"); // // the ->set_mask() method allows you to alter the mask without // creating a new PHP_Dir object //print out a list of files returned matching "c:/*.txt" for($i=0;$i<sizeof($files);$i++{ echo $files[$i]."<br>\n"; } // BTW, both file and directory matching use the same variable set by // ->set_mask(), so make sure to change it if you're using the same PHP_Dir to // list dirs and files in the same page ================================================================ Todo: I don't have alot of everyday-use experience on Linux... should I add change if(is_file($file)) to: if(is_file($file) || is_link($file)) ? I'm not sure... waiting on your feedback on this one If not, I may simply add a ->list_links() method Add option in ->list_dirs() to traverse n directory levels Maybe return a multi-dimensional array with file size, etc... depends what feedback I get Note: ALWAYS INCLUDE TRAILING SLASH IN DIR, i.e. "c:/", "c:\\" or "/usr/bin/" Please email me with any question, comments, suggestions or bug reports. */ class PHP_Dir{ var $mask=''; function PHP_Dir(){} //exterior function set_mask($mask=''){ $this->mask=$mask; } function list_files($dir='/', $mask=''){ /* This function returns a list of files from directory $dir whose name matches $mask (default is '*') $dir = directory to list files from NOTE: ALWAYS INCLUDE TRAILING SLASH IN DIR, i.e. "c:/", "c:\\" or "/usr/bin/" $mask = optional mask of files to return, i.e. *.txt all text files a* all files that begin with 'a' a*.* all files that begin with 'a' and have an extension */ $return = array(); if(!$mask){ $mask=$this->mask; } if(!file_exists($dir)){ echo "PHP_Dir: Directory does not exist"; return $return; } $d=opendir($dir) or die("PHP_Dir: Failure opening directory"); while($file=readdir($d)){ if(is_file($dir.$file) && $this->matches_mask($file, $mask)) $return[sizeof($return)]=$file; } sort($return); return $return; } function list_dirs($dir, $mask=''){ /* Works exactly the same as ->list_files(), except of course, on directories. */ $return = array(); if(!$mask){ $mask=$this->mask; } if(!file_exists($dir)){ echo "PHP_Dir: Directory does not exist"; return $return; } $d=opendir($dir) or die("PHP_Dir: Failure opening directory"); while($file=readdir($d)){ if(is_dir($dir.$file) && $this->matches_mask($file, $mask)) $return[sizeof($return)]=$file; } sort($return); return $return; } //interior function matches_mask($file, $mask){ $mask = str_replace(".", "\.", $mask); $mask = str_replace("*", "(.*)", $mask); if(eregi("^$mask", $file, $blah)) return true; } } ?>
