    pathinfo

    (PHP 4 >= 4.0.3, PHP 5, PHP 7)

    pathinfo — Returns information about a file path

    설명

    mixed pathinfo ( string $path [, int $options = PATHINFO_DIRNAME | PATHINFO_BASENAME | PATHINFO_EXTENSION | PATHINFO_FILENAME ] )

    pathinfo() returns information about path: either an associative array or a string, depending on options.

    인수

    path

    The path to be parsed.

    options

    If present, specifies a specific element to be returned; one of PATHINFO_DIRNAME, PATHINFO_BASENAME, PATHINFO_EXTENSION or PATHINFO_FILENAME.

    If options is not specified, returns all available elements.

    반환값

    If the options parameter is not passed, an associative array containing the following elements is returned: dirname, basename, extension (if any), and filename.

    Note:

    If the path has more than one extension, PATHINFO_EXTENSION returns only the last one and PATHINFO_FILENAME only strips the last one. (see first example below).

    Note:

    If the path does not have an extension, no extension element will be returned (see second example below).

    Note:

    If the basename of the path starts with a dot, the following characters are interpreted as extension, and the filename is empty (see third example below).

    If options is present, returns a string containing the requested element.

    echo     $path_parts['dirname'], "\n";
    echo     $path_parts['basename'], "\n";
    echo     $path_parts['extension'], "\n";
    echo     $path_parts['filename'], "\n"; // since PHP 5.2.0
    ?>

    위 예제의 출력:

    /www/htdocs/inc
lib.inc.php

lib.inc

    Example #2 pathinfo() example showing difference between null and no extension

    <?php
    $path_parts     = pathinfo('/path/emptyextension.');
    var_dump($path_parts['extension']);

    $path_parts = pathinfo('/path/noextension');
    var_dump($path_parts['extension']);
    ?>

    위 예제의 출력 예시:

    string(0) ""

Notice: Undefined index: extension in test.php on line 6
NULL

    Example #3 pathinfo() example for a dot-file

    <?php
    print_r    (pathinfo('/some/path/.test'));
    ?>

    위 예제의 출력 예시:

    Array
(
    [dirname] => /some/path
    [basename] => .test
    [extension] => test
    [filename] => 
)

    주의

    Note:

    For information on retrieving the current path info, read the section on predefined reserved variables.

    Note:

    pathinfo() is locale aware, so for it to parse a path containing multibyte characters correctly, the matching locale must be set using the setlocale() function.

    참고

    • dirname() - Returns a parent directory's path
    • basename() - Returns trailing name component of path
    • parse_url() - URL을 해석해서 구성요소를 반환
    • realpath() - Returns canonicalized absolute pathname

    Simple example of pathinfo and array destructuring in PHP 7:
    <?php
    [ 'basename' => $basename, 'dirname' => $dirname ] = pathinfo('/www/htdocs/inc/lib.inc.php');

    var_dump($basename, $dirname);

    // result:
    // string(11) "lib.inc.php"
    // string(15) "/www/htdocs/inc"
    ?>

    about the path, there are one thing you should note :
    On Windows, both slash (/) and backslash (\) are used as directory separator character. In other environments, it is the forward slash (/).  (this explain is from basename() function part https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.basename.php)
    example:
    <?php
    $path     = "https://urvidutta.com /a\b\c\filename.pdf";

    echo     pathinfo($pdfUrl, PATHINFO_BASENAME);  //get basename
    //output
    //on window:  result is filename.pdf
    //on Linux: result is a\b\c\filename.pdf (that is may not your expect)

    //so in order to get same result in different system.  i will do below first.
    $path = str_replace($path, '\\', '/'); //convert '\'  to '/'
    ?>

    Use this function in place of pathinfo to make it work with UTF-8 encoded file names too

    <?php
    function mb_pathinfo($filepath) {
            preg_match('%^(.*?)[\\\\/]*(([^/\\\\]*?)(\.([^\.\\\\/]+?)|))[\\\\/\.]*$%im',$filepath,$m);
        if(    $m[1]) $ret['dirname']=$m[1];
        if(    $m[2]) $ret['basename']=$m[2];
        if(    $m[5]) $ret['extension']=$m[5];
        if(    $m[3]) $ret['filename']=$m[3];
        return     $ret;
    }
    ?>

    If a file has more than one 'file extension' (seperated by periods), the last one will be returned.
    For example:
    <?php
    $pathinfo     = pathinfo('/dir/test.tar.gz');
    echo     'Extension: '.$pathinfo['extension'];
    ?>
    will produce:
    Extension: gz

    and not tar.gz
