dir

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

dir — Directory sınıfının örneğini döndürür

Açıklama

dir(string $dizin, ?resource $bağlam = null): Directory|false

Bir dizini okumak için yarı nesne yönelimli bir mekanizma. Belirtilen dizin açılır.

Bağımsız Değişkenler

dizin: Açılacak dizin.
bağlam: Akım bağlamı özkaynağı.

Dönen Değerler

Normalde Directory örneği döner, hata oluşursa false döner.

Sürüm Bilgisi

Sürüm:	Açıklama
8.0.0	`bağlam` artık `null` olabiliyor.

Örnekler

Örnek 1 - dir() örneği

Aşağıdaki örnekte Directory::read()'in dönüş değerine bakılma şekline dikkat edilmelidir. Dönüş değerinin false ile aynı olup olmadığına (eşitlik ve aynılık hakkında daha fazla bilgi için Karşılaştırma İşleçlerine bakın) bakılmaktadır, çünkü bu yapılmazsa adı false olarak değerlendirilen herhangi bir dizin girdisi döngüyü durdurur.

<?php
$d = dir("/etc/php5");
echo "Tanıtıcı: " . $d->handle . "\n";
echo "Dizin: " . $d->path . "\n";
while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {
   echo $entry."\n";
}
$d->close();
?>

Yukarıdaki örnek şuna benzer bir çıktı üretir:

Tanıtıcı: Resource id #2
Dizin: /etc/php5
.
..
apache
cgi
cli

Notlar

Bilginize:
Okuma yönteminden dönen dizin girdilerinin sıralaması sisteme bağlıdır.

Here my solution how to do effective recursiv directory listing.

Have fun.

<?php

/**
 * example of use:

$d = new RecDir("/etc/",false);
echo "Path: " . $d->getRootPath() . "\n";

            break;
         default:
            $this->slash = '/';
      }
      $this->rootPath = $rootPath;
      $this->currentPath = $rootPath;
      $this->recursiveTree = array(dir($this->rootPath));
      $this->rewind();
   }

This one's pretty nice.  After getting frustrated for hunting down .jpg files in my massive music collection (PHP would run out of memory), I thought there should be a preg_ls function.

function preg_ls ($path=".", $rec=false, $pat="/.*/") {
    // it's going to be used repeatedly, ensure we compile it for speed.
    $pat=preg_replace("|(/.*/[^S]*)|s", "\\1S", $pat);
    //Remove trailing slashes from path
    while (substr($path,-1,1)=="/") $path=substr($path,0,-1);
    //also, make sure that $path is a directory and repair any screwups
    if (!is_dir($path)) $path=dirname($path);
    //assert either truth or falsehoold of $rec, allow no scalars to mean truth
    if ($rec!==true) $rec=false;
    //get a directory handle
    $d=dir($path);
    //initialise the output array
    $ret=Array();
    //loop, reading until there's no more to read
    while (false!==($e=$d->read())) {
        //Ignore parent- and self-links
        if (($e==".")||($e=="..")) continue;
        //If we're working recursively and it's a directory, grab and merge
        if ($rec && is_dir($path."/".$e)) {
            $ret=array_merge($ret,preg_ls($path."/".$e,$rec,$pat));
            continue;
        }
        //If it don't match, exclude it
        if (!preg_match($pat,$e)) continue;
        //In all other cases, add it to the output array
        $ret[]=$path."/".$e;
    }
    //finally, return the array
    return $ret;
}

Not bad for a mere 18 lines, don't you think?

Example use:

foreach (preg_ls("/etc/X11", true, "/.*\.conf/i") as $file) echo $file."\n";

Output: 

/etc/X11/xkb/README.config
/etc/X11/xorg.conf-vesa
/etc/X11/xorg.conf~
/etc/X11/gui.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf-fbdev

Note that the dir object will use the default encoding for non-unicode programs on Windows with PHP 5.x.

So, if you have a file named with characters unsupported by the current default encoding, the dir->read() method will return a wrong entry.

<?php
/*
** This script is on the same directory than a file named with
** unsupported characters for the current default encoding.
*/
$d = dir("./");
while(false !== ($e = $d->read()))
    echo $e . '<br/>';
?>

This will print a "?" for every unsupported characters, and not the right file name. So take care if you check with is_file/is_dir right after enumerating.

Regarding samuel's comment about the dir() function not supporting Unicode properly, it's all in the encoding. The function does NOT internally change Unicode characters into question marks (?), as I was first led to believe. If you simply try to output them in UTF-8, they'll show up just right.

The dir Class, from what I can tell, on a Windows box is not a  live image of the directory.  When the class is instantiated it takes a snapshot of the directory and then the iterator works off that.

I may be wrong, but when I run two processes that look to see if a directory exists, and then deletes the dir when some processing takes place.  Deletes from one process do not effect the iteration of the second.

To get around this I check that the file exists before doing my processing:

$d = dir($dataDir);
while (false !== ($entry = $d->read()))
if ($entry != '..' && $entry != '.' && file_exists("$dataDir\\$entry"))
{
    // do stuff
}
$d->close();

I run this as a batch process and can activate it multiple times to process the directory listing in parallel.

i've modified the script below to get the leaf folders of any directory (folders with no subfolders).

note: this does not return the folder passed in as a parameter, even if it has no subfolders.

<?php
function get_leaf_dirs($dir) {
   $array = array();
   $d = dir($dir);
   while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {
       if($entry!='.' && $entry!='..') {
           $entry = $dir.'/'.$entry;
           if(is_dir($entry)) {
               $subdirs = get_leaf_dirs($entry);
               if ($subdirs)
                  $array = array_merge($array, $subdirs);
               else
                  $array[] = $entry;
           }
       }
   }
   $d->close();
   return $array;
}

With SPL, you could recursively list all of the folders inside the current directory like this:

<?php
$it = new RecursiveDirectoryIterator('./');

// RecursiveIteratorIterator accepts the following modes:
//     LEAVES_ONLY = 0  (default)
//     SELF_FIRST  = 1
//     CHILD_FIRST = 2
foreach (new RecursiveIteratorIterator($it, 2) as $path) {

    if ($path->isDir()) {

        echo "$path\n";

    }

}
?>

When creating custom solutions, use predefined PHP constants to shorten your code and improve performances:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.constants.php

For example, DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR may replace a function in which you check PHP_OS to set if the directory separator is "/" or "\\".

Cheers.

Saw the leaf dirs bit...  quick mod:

function preg_ls ($path=".", $rec=false, $pat="/.*/") {
    $pat=preg_replace ("|(/.*/[^S]*)|s", "\\1S", $pat);
    while (substr ($path,-1,1) =="/") $path=substr ($path,0,-1);
    if (!is_dir ($path) ) $path=dirname ($path);
    if ($rec!==true) $rec=false;
    $d=dir ($path);
    $ret=Array ();
    while (false!== ($e=$d->read () ) ) {
        if ( ($e==".") || ($e=="..") ) continue;
        if ($rec && is_dir ($path."/".$e) ) {
            $ret=array_merge ($ret,preg_ls($path."/".$e,$rec,$pat));
            continue;
        }
        if (!preg_match ($pat,$e) ) continue;
        $ret[]=$path."/".$e;
    }
    return (empty ($ret) && preg_match ($pat,basename($path))) ? Array ($path."/") : $ret;
}

example:

foreach (preg_ls ("/usr/share/fluxbox", true, "/[LT]e[sa]/i") as $file) echo $file."\n";

output:

/usr/share/fluxbox/styles/Leaf/
/usr/share/fluxbox/styles/Clean

Regarding jaqb's post about a correction to the read_dir function, I have one small fix too if people wish to also list the directories inside this directory and read them into the same array.

<?
function read_dir($dir) {
   $array = array();
   $d = dir($dir);
   while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {
       if($entry!='.' && $entry!='..') {
           $entry = $dir.'/'.$entry;
           if(is_dir($entry)) {
               $array[] = $entry;
               $array = array_merge($array, read_dir($entry));
           } else {
               $array[] = $entry;
           }
       }
   }
   $d->close();
   return $array;
}
?>
