Oracle in World: How to see directory contents, file size, file type, modification date using php

There is already some raw output of directory contents which is shown in the post List of directory contents using array in php. In this post I will display the directory contents into more readable format as well as the contents size, file type and modification date of the file/folder.

We will start by making a hard code directory in our code to which contents file type, size will be displayed.

1)We assign the directory location to a path so that we can work further with this $path variable.
$path='D:/test';

2)You need to open the directory using php opendir() function.
$myDirectory = opendir($path);

3)Using a while loop read each directory contents and put them into an array variable named $dirArray.
while($entryName = readdir($myDirectory)) {
$dirArray[] = $entryName;
}
4)As we already read all the contents and the contents are within array variable so now we can close the directory using,
closedir($myDirectory);

5)We need to count the number of elements inside the array, in order words number of files exist inside the operating system directory.
$indexCount = count($dirArray);

6)Optionally we are sorting here so that we can display them in an order.
sort($dirArray);

7)As you have seen in the example http://arjudba.blogspot.com/2009/03/list-of-directory-contents-using-array.html [0] => . [1] => .. are there and you might not want to display those hidden contents. So before displaying contents you will check whether filename starts with a dot (.) . If it starts with a dot file will not be displayed on the browser. Simply using if condition we can omit it.
if (substr("$dirArray[$i]", 0, 1) != ".")

8)To display all files in the array we can use for loop construct.
for($i=0; $i < $indexCount; $i++) Now the above php lines are combined and embedded with html in order to display result in a good format. Full code is below.


<?
$path='D:/test';
// open this directory
$myDirectory = opendir($path);

// get each entry
while($entryName = readdir($myDirectory)) {
 $dirArray[] = $entryName;
}

// close directory
closedir($myDirectory);

// count elements in array
$indexCount = count($dirArray);

// sort them
sort($dirArray);
?>

<html>
<body>
<table style="margin-bottom: 1px;" border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" width="90%">
      <tbody>
  <tr>
      <th class="TableData" style="padding-left: 11px; padding-right: 1px;"
  bgcolor="#dadce1" width="300" height="22">File Name
      </th>
     
      <th class="TableData" style="padding-left: 11px; padding-right: 1px;"
  bgcolor="#dadce1" width="100" height="22">File Size
      </th>
     
  <th class="TableData" style="padding-left: 11px; padding-right: 1px;"
  bgcolor="#dadce1" width="350" height="22">Date Modified
      </th>
     
  <th class="TableData" style="padding-left: 11px; padding-right: 1px;"
  bgcolor="#dadce1" width="110" height="22">File Type
      </th>
 
  <?
  for($i=0; $i < $indexCount; $i++) {
  // don't list hidden files
  if (substr("$dirArray[$i]", 0, 1) != "."){

  ?>

  <tr>
     <td class="Lebels" align="right" bgcolor="#e9ece9" >
  <? echo $dirArray[$i]; ?>  
  </td>
  <?
  print("<td bgcolor=\"#e9ece9\">");
  # We may want a file size. Note that you need to add path
  if( filesize( $path . "/" . $dirArray[$i] ) >= 1024 ) {
   # Size in kilobytes
   print " " . round( filesize( $path . "/" . $dirArray[$i] ) / 1024, 1 )
   . " K<br />\n";
  } elseif( filesize( $path . "/" . $dirArray[$i] ) >= 1048576 ) {
   # Size in megabytes
   print " " . round( filesize( $path . "/" . $dirArray[$i] ) / 1024 / 1024, 1 ) . " M<br />\n";
  } else {
   # Size in bytes
   print " " . filesize( $path . "/" . $dirArray[$i] ) . " bytes<br />\n";
  }
  print("</td>");
  ?>
      
  <td class="Values" bgcolor="#e9ece9" ><? echo date ("F d Y H:i:s.", filemtime($path . "/" . $dirArray[$i])); ?>
  </td>

  <td class="Values" bgcolor="#e9ece9" >
  <? print(filetype($path . "/" . $dirArray[$i] ));?>
 
  </td>
  </tr>
  <?
 }
}

print("</TABLE>\n");
?>
</body>
</html>

A sample output in my system of the above output is,

File Name	File Size	Date Modified	File Type
