Sub-Directory listing with files

[karthikeyan_coder]

Hello,

 

        I need to list a directory's all sub-folders and its files...

 

i've tried for directory listing alone...

$list_ignore = array ('.','..');
$main_trace_dir = "uploads";
$handle=opendir($main_trace_dir);
while ($file = readdir($handle)) {
  if (is_dir($file) && !in_array($file,$list_ignore)) {    
  echo $file;
  }
   }
    closedir($handle);

 

lets say the directory structure is...

 

uploads

|______Subfolder A

|          |_________Subfolder 1

|          |              |__________Some file.zip

|          |              |__________Some other file.mp

|          |_________Subfolder 2

|                          |_________file.

|______Subfolder B

|          |_________X

|                          |________

|some file in main directory.zip

 

actually the number of files and subfolders of "uploads" is numerous...

 

Current code is trying to list just "Subfolder A, Subfolder B" ... actually i have to extract *.zip files and move the contents to some directory like "extracted". if it is not zip then just move to "extracted"... i dont know how to execute subfolders/files section... any help?

Just to clarify, you want a code that will present the directories like you typed out or you want a code that will move files around based on whether or not they are extracted, or both?

have to Extract if it is zip and move. else just move

 

if current file is a zip then

______________________

 

example content of a zip

somefile.zip

--------------> titleimage.jpg

-------------->song.mp3

-------------->song2.mp3

 

someother.zip

------------->song3.mp3

-------------->song4.mp3

 

 

if the current file is a zip then we have to extract and move the files. if the extracted file is an image then ... /uploads/images else /uploads/songs

 

if the current file is a *.mp3 then

____________________________

just move to /uploads/songs

 

 

i've tested that.. unzip command is working... i dont know how to move after extraction...

I believe the rename() function will move the file.

ok. but my primary problem is tracing through subfolders...

[redarrow]

1.download a free shell for windows or linux.

 

2.make three folders or as meny needed

 

4.use the command exec to execute the new shell program to unzip all ziped files into a temp folder.

 

5. use a for loop to go throw the files to detect exstention's.

 

6. within the for loop use move_uploaded_file to the destination of the file enstention.

 

there you go.

I was thinking something like this. This will only work if you have PHP 5 though. Scandir isn't supported for 4.

 

<?php
//Array of content
$files = scandir($dir);
//Get rid of . and ..
$files = array_slice($files, 2);
//Loop for the number of files/contents
for($x = 0; $x < count($files); $x++)
{
//This should be a little bit more advanced to get rid of other extensions so you are left with only directories, but you get the point
        if(preg_match("/.mp3/", $files[$x]))
{
	//Move
                rename("/oldpath/oldpath/oldpath/".$files[$x], "/newpath/newpath/newpath/".$files[$x]);
	//Take them out of the array
                unset($files[$x]);
}
} 
?>

 

Now the $files array only has directories left (technically, you will need to do more searching to weed out the rest). I would probably consider making what I did above into a function so you can continually loop to go through all the directories.

 

I am unsure as to how decent my code is. In fact I would assume its poor. I know it works, but the goal was just to get you some ideas. Sorry if it is useless.
