List files in a directory
Hi to all, How can i list the files contained in a directory ? I would like to use it with selecttag to associate a file with a record. The files are very big, uploaded using FTP, so no web-based uploading ! Just listing of a directory in an array.

Re: List files in a directory
you can also look in the http://api.cakephp.org/ at the Folder classyou might find that Folder::ls would be helpfulSam DOn 5/3/06,

Re: List files in a directory
Thank you...
I modified your script like this:
?php
$dirname=ROOT .DS. 'vendors' . DS;
$dh= opendir($dirname);
$files=array();
while (false !== ($entry= readdir($dh)))
{
if ( $entry!= '..' $entry!= '.')
{
$files[$entry]=$entry;
}
}
print_r($files);
?

Re: List files in a directory
I can't understand how to use the Folder class... Can you tell me how to use it or a place where it is explained ? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Re: List files in a directory
So at the top of the controller you could douses('folder','file'); // loads the classes for Folder and Filethen in the controller to get an array of readable folders in a path you could do$path = WWW_ROOT.DS.'dev'.DS.'birdlists'.DS.$filename;
$folder = new Folder($path);$ls = $folder-ls();foreach ($ls[1] as $filename) { $file = new File ($path.DS.$filename); if ($file-readable()) { $listForDisplay[$filename] = $path.DS.$filename;

Re: List files in a directory
Atkati,
You'll find that avoiding Cake methods variables means you write
longer files ;)
To repeat what Sam D has already written using your own variable names
etc. Your script would look something like this:
uses('Folder');
$folder = new Folder (VENDORS);
$files = $folder-ls();
pr ($files[1]); //Reterns a 2D array, 0 is Dirs 1 is files.
Should you need a recursive listing, $folder-findRecursive() is pretty
useful.
Points of reference:
