Getting Information From All .txt Files In A Folder

[Strahd]

Hello all,

 

I have this code which currently reads 1 .txt file in a folder. How can I modify it so that it gets information from *.txt files in the folder?

 

$data_file = @$argv[1];
if (empty($data_file))
{
       die("\nUsage: {$argv[0]} path/to/data/file.txt\n\n");
}

$db = getDb();
// 
$fd = fopen($data_file, 'r');

 

I appreciate any help anyone is willing to offer.

glob.

glob.

As a substitute for fopen or argv? I apologize for the ignorance, I am very new at this.

In his post, glob is a link to the manual where you can read what it does.

 

It will return an array of filenames (you can use wildcards), so then you process each element of the array instead of reading the filename from the command line arguments.

 

You will also need foreach

Thank you guys. The glob() and foreach() worked as advertised .
