Example:</p> - -<code>$string = read_file('./path/to/file.php');</code> - -<p>The path can be a relative or full server path. Returns FALSE (boolean) on failure.</p> - -<p class="important"><strong>Note:</strong> The path is relative to your main site index.php file, NOT your controller or view files. -CodeIgniter uses a front controller so paths are always relative to the main site index.</p> - -<p>If your server is running an open_basedir restriction this function -might not work if you are trying to access a file above the calling script.</p> - -<h2>write_file('<var>path</var>', <kbd>$data</kbd>)</h2> - -<p>Writes data to the file specified in the path. If the file does not exist the function will create it. Example:</p> - -<code> -$data = 'Some file data';<br /> -<br /> -if ( ! write_file('./path/to/file.php', $data))<br /> -{<br /> - echo 'Unable to write the file';<br /> -}<br /> -else<br /> -{<br /> - echo 'File written!';<br /> -}</code> - -<p>You can optionally set the write mode via the third parameter:</p> - -<code>write_file('./path/to/file.php', $data, <var>'r+'</var>);</code> - -<p>The default mode is <kbd>wb</kbd>. Please see the <a href="http://php.net/fopen">PHP user guide</a> for mode options.</p> - -<p>Note: In order for this function to write data to a file its file permissions must be set such that it is writable (666, 777, etc.). -If the file does not already exist, the directory containing it must be writable.</p> - -<p class="important"><strong>Note:</strong> The path is relative to your main site index.php file, NOT your controller or view files. -CodeIgniter uses a front controller so paths are always relative to the main site index.</p> - -<h2>delete_files('<var>path</var>')</h2> - -<p>Deletes ALL files contained in the supplied path. Example:</p> -<code>delete_files('./path/to/directory/');</code> - -<p>If the second parameter is set to <kbd>true</kbd>, any directories contained within the supplied root path will be deleted as well. Example:</p> - -<code>delete_files('./path/to/directory/', TRUE);</code> - -<p class="important"><strong>Note:</strong> The files must be writable or owned by the system in order to be deleted.</p> - -<h2>get_filenames('<var>path/to/directory/</var>')</h2> - -<p>Takes a server path as input and returns an array containing the names of all files contained within it. The file path -can optionally be added to the file names by setting the second parameter to TRUE.</p> - -<h2>get_dir_file_info('<var>path/to/directory/</var>', <kbd>$top_level_only</kbd> = TRUE)</h2> - -<p>Reads the specified directory and builds an array containing the filenames, filesize, dates, and permissions. Sub-folders contained within the specified path are only read if forced - by sending the second parameter, <kbd>$top_level_only</kbd> to <samp>FALSE</samp>, as this can be an intensive operation.</p> - -<h2>get_file_info('<var>path/to/file</var>', <kbd>$file_information</kbd>)</h2> - -<p>Given a file and path, returns the name, path, size, date modified. Second parameter allows you to explicitly declare what information you want returned; options are: name, server_path, size, date, readable, writable, executable, fileperms. Returns FALSE if the file cannot be found.</p> - -<p class="important"><strong>Note:</strong> The "writable" uses the PHP function is_writable() which is known to have issues on the IIS webserver. Consider using fileperms instead, which returns information from PHP's fileperms() function.</p> -<h2>get_mime_by_extension('<var>file</var>')</h2> - -<p>Translates a file extension into a mime type based on config/mimes.php. Returns FALSE if it can't determine the type, or open the mime config file.</p> -<p> -<code>$file = "somefile.png";<br /> -echo $file . ' is has a mime type of ' . get_mime_by_extension($file);</code> -</p> -<p class="critical"><strong>Note:</strong> This is not an accurate way of determining file mime types, and is here strictly as a convenience. It should not be used for security.</p> - -<h2>symbolic_permissions(<kbd>$perms</kbd>)</h2> - -<p>Takes numeric permissions (such as is returned by <kbd>fileperms()</kbd> and returns standard symbolic notation of file permissions.</p> - -<code>echo symbolic_permissions(fileperms('./index.php'));<br /> -<br /> -// -rw-r--r--</code> - -<h2>octal_permissions(<kbd>$perms</kbd>)</h2> - -<p>Takes numeric permissions (such as is returned by <kbd>fileperms()</kbd> and returns a three character octal notation of file permissions.</p> - -<code>echo octal_permissions(fileperms('./index.php'));<br /> -<br /> -// 644</code> - -</div> - -<!-- END CONTENT --> - - -<div id="footer"> -<p> -Previous Topic: <a href="email_helper.html">Email Helper</a> - · -<a href="#top">Top of Page</a> · -<a href="../index.html">User Guide Home</a> · -Next Topic: <a href="form_helper.html">Form Helper</a></p> -<p><a href="http://codeigniter.com">CodeIgniter</a> · Copyright © 2006 - 2011 · <a href="http://ellislab.com/">EllisLab, Inc.</a></p> -</div> - -</body> -</html>
