(PHP 4, PHP 5)
dir — Gibt eine Instanz der Verzeichnis-Klasse zurück
Ein pseudo-objektorientierter Mechanismus zum Lesen eines Verzeichnisses. Das in directory angegebene Verzeichnis wird geöffnet. Sobald das Verzeichnis geöffnet ist, stehen 2 Eigenschaften zur Verfügung. Die Eigenschaft Handle kann mit anderen Verzeichnis-Funktionen wie readdir(), rewinddir() und closedir() benutzt werden. Die Eigenschaft Path enthält die Pfadangabe des geöffneten Verzeichnisses. Es sind 3 Methoden verfügbar: read (lesen), rewind (zurücksetzen) und close (schließen).
Beispiel #1 dir() Beispiel
Beachten Sie im nachfolgenden Beispiel, wie der Rückgabewert der Funktion dir::read() überprüft wird. Es wird explizit getestet, ob der Rückgabewert identisch (den gleichen Wert und Datentyp hat, siehe Vergleichs-0peratoren) mit FALSE ist, weil sonst jeder Verzeichniseintrag, der zu FALSE ausgewertet wird, die Schleife abbricht.
<?php
$d = dir("/etc/php5");
echo "Handle: " . $d->handle . "\n";
echo "Path: " . $d->path . "\n";
while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {
echo $entry."\n";
}
$d->close();
?>
Das oben gezeigte Beispiel erzeugt eine ähnliche Ausgabe wie:
Handle: Resource id #2 Path: /etc/php5 . .. apache cgi cli
Hinweis:
Die Reihenfolge der Verzeichniseinträge, die von der read-Methode zurückgegeben werden, ist systemabhängig.
When creating custom solutions, use predefined PHP constants to shorten your code and improve performances:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.constants.php
For example, DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR may replace a function in which you check PHP_OS to set if the directory separator is "/" or "\\".
Cheers.
That's the way, I'm storing recursive dirs to an array.
<?php
public static function getTreeFolders($sRootPath = UPLOAD_PATH_PROJECT, $iDepth = 0) {
$iDepth++;
$aDirs = array();
$oDir = dir($sRootPath);
while(($sDir = $oDir->read()) !== false) {
if($sDir != '.' && $sDir != '..' && is_dir($sRootPath.$sDir)) {
$aDirs[$iDepth]['sName'][] = $sDir;
$aDirs[$iDepth]['aSub'][] = self::getTreeFolders($sRootPath.$sDir.'/',$iDepth);
}
}
$oDir->close();
return empty($aDirs) ? false : $aDirs;
}
?>
Here my solution how to do effective recursiv directory listing.
Have fun.
<?php
/**
* example of use:
*/
$d = new RecDir("/etc/",false);
echo "Path: " . $d->getRootPath() . "\n";
while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {
echo $entry."\n";
}
$d->close();
class RecDir
{
protected $currentPath;
protected $slash;
protected $rootPath;
protected $recursiveTree;
function __construct($rootPath,$win=false)
{
switch($win)
{
case true:
$this->slash = '\\';
break;
default:
$this->slash = '/';
}
$this->rootPath = $rootPath;
$this->currentPath = $rootPath;
$this->recursiveTree = array(dir($this->rootPath));
$this->rewind();
}
function __destruct()
{
$this->close();
}
public function close()
{
while(true === ($d = array_pop($this->recursiveTree)))
{
$d->close();
}
}
public function closeChildren()
{
while(count($this->recursiveTree)>1 && false !== ($d = array_pop($this->recursiveTree)))
{
$d->close();
return true;
}
return false;
}
public function getRootPath()
{
if(isset($this->rootPath))
{
return $this->rootPath;
}
return false;
}
public function getCurrentPath()
{
if(isset($this->currentPath))
{
return $this->currentPath;
}
return false;
}
public function read()
{
while(count($this->recursiveTree)>0)
{
$d = end($this->recursiveTree);
if((false !== ($entry = $d->read())))
{
if($entry!='.' && $entry!='..')
{
$path = $d->path.$entry;
if(is_file($path))
{
return $path;
}
elseif(is_dir($path.$this->slash))
{
$this->currentPath = $path.$this->slash;
if($child = @dir($path.$this->slash))
{
$this->recursiveTree[] = $child;
}
}
}
}
else
{
array_pop($this->recursiveTree)->close();
}
}
return false;
}
public function rewind()
{
$this->closeChildren();
$this->rewindCurrent();
}
public function rewindCurrent()
{
return end($this->recursiveTree)->rewind();
}
}
?>
Unlike the others here I've created a function that returns the directory's in a 2-dimensional array. Starting from the requested dir:
<?php
/*
getDirTree(string $dir [, bool $showfiles]);
$dir of the folder you want to list, be sure to have an ending /
$showfiles set to 'false' if files shouldnt be listed in the output array
*/
function getDirTree($dir,$p=true) {
$d = dir($dir);$x=array();
while (false !== ($r = $d->read())) {
if($r!="."&&$r!=".."&&(($p==false&&is_dir($dir.$r))||$p==true)) {
$x[$r] = (is_dir($dir.$r)?array():(is_file($dir.$r)?true:false));
}
}
foreach ($x as $key => $value) {
if (is_dir($dir.$key."/")) {
$x[$key] = getDirTree($dir.$key."/",$p);
}
}
ksort($x);
return $x;
}
?>
Example Output:
Array
(
[folder1] => Array
(
[subfolder1] => Array()
[subfolder2] => Array()
[text.txt] => 1
)
[folder2] => Array()
[folder3] => Array
(
[text.txt] => 1
)
)
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.

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";
}
}
?>
<?php
$i = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new RecursiveDirectoryIterator('.'));
?>
works for me..
IMHO, thats take most effect with smaller number of errors;)
function get_leaf_dirs($dir)
{
$array = array();
$d = @dir($dir);
if($d)
{
while (false !== ($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 $array;
}
function directoryList($start,$win32=false){
if($win32){
$slash="\\";
}else{
$slash="/";
}
$basename = pathinfo($start);
$basename = $basename['basename'];
$ls=array();
$dir = dir($start);
while($item = $dir->read()){
if(is_dir($start.$slash.$item)&& $item!="." && $item!=".."){
$ls[$basename][]=directoryList($start.$slash.$item,$win32);
}else{
if($item!="."&&$item!=".."){
$ls[$basename][]=$item;
}
}
}
return $ls;
}
$path = pathinfo(__FILE__);
$ls = directoryList($path['dirname'], true);
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.
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 $e . '<br/>';
?>
This will print a "?" for every unsupported characters, and not the right file name. So take care if you check with is_file/is_dir right after enumerating.
Regarding jaqb's post about a correction to the read_dir function, I have one small fix too if people wish to also list the directories inside this directory and read them into the same array.
<?
function read_dir($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 $array;
}
?>
Saw the leaf dirs bit... quick mod:
function preg_ls ($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 $file."\n";
output:
/usr/share/fluxbox/styles/Leaf/
/usr/share/fluxbox/styles/Clean
/usr/share/fluxbox/styles/Testing/
This one's pretty nice. After getting frustrated for hunting down .jpg files in my massive music collection (PHP would run out of memory), I thought there should be a preg_ls function.
function preg_ls ($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 $file."\n";
Output:
/etc/X11/xkb/README.config
/etc/X11/xorg.conf-vesa
/etc/X11/xorg.conf~
/etc/X11/gui.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf-fbdev
i've modified the script below to get the leaf folders of any directory (folders with no subfolders).
note: this does not return the folder passed in as a parameter, even if it has no subfolders.
<?php
function get_leaf_dirs($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;
}
?>
