The DirectoryIterator class provides a simple interface for viewing the contents of filesystem directories.
Note that seek() and count() are not always available. At least not on ZendServer CE with PHP 5.2.12 on Mac OSX.
Simple test:
<?php
echo "php ".phpversion().": ";
$dirit = new DirectoryIterator( '.' );
var_dump( method_exists( $dirit, 'seek' ) );
var_dump( method_exists( $dirit, 'count' ) );
?>
You can implement them using existing methods:
seek(): rewind() and then $pos times next()
count(): clone iterator (to keep position), rewind() and then ++$count while ( valid() )
Shows us all files and catalogues in directory except "." and "..".
<?php
foreach (new DirectoryIterator('../moodle') as $fileInfo) {
if($fileInfo->isDot()) continue;
echo $fileInfo->getFilename() . "<br>\n";
}
?>
DirectoryIterator::getBasename() has been also been available since 5.2.2, according to the changelog (not documented yet). It takes a parameter $suffix, and is useful if, for instance, you use a naming convention for your files (e.g. ClassName.php).
The following code uses this to add recursively All*Tests.php in any subdirectory off of tests/, basically, suites of suites.
<?php
// PHPUnit boilerplate code goes here
class AllTests {
public static function main() {
$parameters = array('verbose' => true);
PHPUnit_TextUI_TestRunner::run(self::suite(), $parameters);
}
public static function suite() {
$suite = new PHPUnit_Framework_TestSuite('AllMyTests'); // this must be something different than the class name, per PHPUnit
$it = new AllTestsFilterIterator(
new RecursiveIteratorIterator(
new RecursiveDirectoryIterator(dirname(__FILE__) . '/tests')));
for ($it->rewind(); $it->valid(); $it->next()) {
require_once($it->current());
$className = $it->current()->getBasename('.php');
$suite->addTest($className::suite());
}
return $suite;
}
}
?>
Also, the AllTestsFilterIterator above extends FilterIterator, and contains one method, accept():
<?php
class AllTestsFilterIterator extends FilterIterator {
public function accept() {
if (preg_match('/All.*Tests\.php/', $this->current())) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
}
?>
Implements Iterator so you can foreach() over the content of the given directory
