Directory listing and array

[synne]

Sorry for such a simple question, or at least even I think it is.

What id like to do is create a function for creating a list of directories/folders in a given base directory and turn the results into an array. It does not have to be recursive. No files.

And prefer in alphabetical order

 

BaseUrl = '/';

BaseDir = '/path/to/dir';

 

For each directory create array as such:

 

$config['ResourceType'][] = Array(
                'name' => '$directory_name',
                'url' => $baseUrl . '$directory_name',
                'directory' => $baseDir . '$directory_name',
                'maxSize' => 0,
                'allowedExtensions' => 'htm,html,php,cgi',
                'deniedExtensions' => 'asp');

 

Thanks, and sorry again, Im reading on arrays and how to create the list, figuring out how to put them together is driving me nuts

You could use the glob() function (docs) to get a list of directories.  The idea being to build up your array in a loop like:

 

 

$directories = glob($baseDir . '/*', GLOB_ONLYDIR);
foreach ($directories as $directory_path) {
    $directory_name = basename($directory_path);
    $config['ResourceType'][] = array(
        'name' => $directory_name,
        'url'  => $baseUrl . $directory_name,
        // and the rest of your array values
    );
}

That was perfect, hope it was as easy as it looks.

 

Thanks
