Help. PHP delete old files

[2000a]

Hi,

 

I need YOUR help with a piece of code. My body normally helps me, but he's on vacation.

 

I have a folder (/var/www/html/upload/files/) where files are uploaded to. There can be files at the root of (/uploads/) and there can be files in subfolders of  (/uploads/)... eg: (/uploads/subfolder1/files_here), (/uploads/subfolder2/files_here)

 

I want to modify my script (below) that only delete old files at the root (/uploads/), to also delete files (but NOT subfolders) older than 10 days. Do not delete subfolders, regardless of date.

 

You can modify the existing code to make it more efficient, if you have time/patience.

I'm grateful for your help.

 

This is the code I have for the root folder (not recursive):

$dir = '/var/www/html/upload/files/';

 

echo "STARTING\n";

if (is_dir($dir)) {

if ($dh = opendir($dir)) {

while ($file = readdir($dh)) {

if(!is_dir($dir.$file)) {

if (filemtime($dir.$file) < strtotime('-10 days')) { //if 10 days old, delete

echo "Deleting $dir.$file (old)\n";

unlink($dir.$file);

}

}

}

} else {

echo "ERROR. Could not open directory: $dir\n";

}

} else {

echo "ERROR. Specified path is not a directory: $dir\n";

}

closedir($dh);

echo "DONE\n";

Not 100% sure, but I would maybe try to first store the directories into an array, with the correct path as value. Then loop through the array deleting the correct files.
