Manual PHP

glob

(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5)

glob -- Find pathnames matching a pattern

Description

array glob ( string pattern [, int flags])

The glob() function searches for all the pathnames matching pattern according to the rules used by the libc glob() function, which is similar to the rules used by common shells. No tilde expansion or parameter substitution is done.

Returns an array containing the matched files/directories or FALSE on error.

Valid flags:

GLOB_MARK - Adds a slash to each item returned
GLOB_NOSORT - Return files as they appear in the directory (no sorting)
GLOB_NOCHECK - Return the search pattern if no files matching it were found
GLOB_NOESCAPE - Backslashes do not quote metacharacters
GLOB_BRACE - Expands {a,b,c} to match 'a', 'b', or 'c'
GLOB_ONLYDIR - Return only directory entries which match the pattern

Notã: Before PHP 4.3.3 GLOB_ONLYDIR was not available on Windows and other systems not using the GNU C library.

Exemplu 1. Convenient way how glob() can replace opendir() and friends.


<?php
foreach (glob("*.txt") as $filename) {
    echo "$filename size " . filesize($filename) . "\n";
}
?>

Output will look something like:

funclist.txt size 44686
funcsummary.txt size 267625
quickref.txt size 137820

Notã: This function will not work on remote files as the file to be examined must be accessible via the servers filesystem.
