- -Loading this Helper -=================== - -This helper is loaded using the following code:: - - $this->load->helper('file'); - -Available Functions -=================== - -The following functions are available: - - -.. php:function:: read_file($file) - - :param string $file: File path - :returns: File contents or FALSE on failure - :rtype: string - - Returns the data contained in the file specified in the path. - - Example:: - - $string = read_file('./path/to/file.php'); - - The path can be a relative or full server path. Returns FALSE (boolean) on failure. - - .. note:: The path is relative to your main site index.php file, NOT your - controller or view files. CodeIgniter uses a front controller so paths - are always relative to the main site index. - - .. note:: This function is DEPRECATED. Use the native ``file_get_contents()`` - instead. - - .. important:: If your server is running an **open_basedir** restriction this - function might not work if you are trying to access a file above the - calling script. - -.. php:function:: write_file($path, $data[, $mode = 'wb']) - - :param string $path: File path - :param string $data: Data to write to file - :param string $mode: ``fopen()`` mode - :returns: TRUE if the write was successful, FALSE in case of an error - :rtype: bool - - Writes data to the file specified in the path. If the file does not exist then the - function will create it. - - Example:: - - $data = 'Some file data'; - if ( ! write_file('./path/to/file.php', $data)) - {      - echo 'Unable to write the file'; - } - else - {      - echo 'File written!'; - } - - You can optionally set the write mode via the third parameter:: - - write_file('./path/to/file.php', $data, 'r+'); - - The default mode is 'wb'. Please see the `PHP user guide `_ - for mode options. - - .. note: In order for this function to write data to a file, its permissions must - be set such that it is writable. If the file does not already exist, - then the directory containing it must be writable. - - .. note:: The path is relative to your main site index.php file, NOT your - controller or view files. CodeIgniter uses a front controller so paths - are always relative to the main site index. - - .. note:: This function acquires an exclusive lock on the file while writing to it. - -.. php:function:: delete_files($path[, $del_dir = FALSE[, $htdocs = FALSE]]) - - :param string $path: Directory path - :param bool $del_dir: Whether to also delete directories - :param bool $htdocs: Whether to skip deleting .htaccess and index page files - :returns: TRUE on success, FALSE in case of an error - :rtype: bool - - Deletes ALL files contained in the supplied path. - - Example:: - - delete_files('./path/to/directory/'); - - If the second parameter is set to TRUE, any directories contained within the supplied - root path will be deleted as well. - - Example:: - - delete_files('./path/to/directory/', TRUE); - - .. note:: The files must be writable or owned by the system in order to be deleted. - -.. php:function:: get_filenames($source_dir[, $include_path = FALSE]) - - :param string $source_dir: Directory path - :param bool $include_path: Whether to include the path as part of the filenames - :returns: An array of file names - :rtype: array - - 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. - - Example:: - - $controllers = get_filenames(APPPATH.'controllers/'); - -.. php:function:: get_dir_file_info($source_dir, $top_level_only) - - :param string $source_dir: Directory path - :param bool $top_level_only: Whether to look only at the specified directory (excluding sub-directories) - :returns: An array containing info on the supplied directory's contents - :rtype: array - - 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 to FALSE, as this can be an intensive - operation. - - Example:: - - $models_info = get_dir_file_info(APPPATH.'models/'); - -.. php:function:: get_file_info($file[, $returned_values = array('name', 'server_path', 'size', 'date')]) - - :param string $file: File path - :param array $returned_values: What type of info to return - :returns: An array containing info on the specified file or FALSE on failure - :rtype: array - - Given a file and path, returns (optionally) the *name*, *path*, *size* and *date modified* - information attributes for a file. Second parameter allows you to explicitly declare what - information you want returned. - - Valid ``$returned_values`` options are: `name`, `size`, `date`, `readable`, `writeable`, - `executable` and `fileperms`. - -.. php:function:: get_mime_by_extension($filename) - - :param string $filename: File name - :returns: MIME type string or FALSE on failure - :rtype: string - - Translates a filename extension into a MIME type based on *config/mimes.php*. - Returns FALSE if it can't determine the type, or read the MIME config file. - - :: - - $file = 'somefile.png'; - echo $file.' is has a mime type of '.get_mime_by_extension($file); - - .. note:: This is not an accurate way of determining file MIME types, and - is here strictly for convenience. It should not be used for security - purposes. - -.. php:function:: symbolic_permissions($perms) - - :param int $perms: Permissions - :returns: Symbolic permissions string - :rtype: string - - Takes numeric permissions (such as is returned by ``fileperms()``) and returns - standard symbolic notation of file permissions. - - :: - - echo symbolic_permissions(fileperms('./index.php')); // -rw-r--r-- - -.. php:function:: octal_permissions($perms) - - :param int $perms: Permissions - :returns: Octal permissions string - :rtype: string - - Takes numeric permissions (such as is returned by ``fileperms()``) and returns - a three character octal notation of file permissions. - - :: - - echo octal_permissions(fileperms('./index.php')); // 644 \ No newline at end of file -- cgit v1.2.3-24-g4f1b
