PHP Directory Processing—Browsing Directory and Operating Directory
In this article, we mainly talk about the browsing directory and operating directory of directory processing. Reading and writing operations like file processing, directory processing are similar to file processing, but the operation methods may be slightly different.
The previous article "PHP Directory Processing - Open/Close Directory" introduced the most basic opening and closing of directory processing. Below we will introduce in detail browsing the directory and operating the directory!
—: Browse the directory
To browse files in the directory in PHP, we use the scandir() function. The syntax format of this function is as follows:
array scandir ( string $directory [, int $sorting_order [, resource $context ]] )
This function returns an array containing all files and directories in directory. The parameter sorting_order specifies the sorting order. The default is ascending alphabetical order. If this parameter is added, it will be sorted in descending order.
The following example will view all files in a directory. The specific example code is as follows:
<?php
header("Content-Type:text/html; charset=utf-8");
$path = "D:\phpStudy\WWW\php";
if(is_dir($path)){ //检测是否是一个目录
$dir = scandir($path); //使用 scandir()函数取得所有文件及目录
foreach ($dir as $value){ //使用 foreach 循环
echo $value."<br>"; //循环输出文件及目录名称
}
} else{
echo "路径错误";
}
?>The running results are as follows:
2: Operating Directory
A directory is a special kind of file, that is to say, most of the operating functions for files (such as renaming) also apply to directories. But there are some special functions that are just for directories. The following list is some commonly used directory operation functions:
| Function prototype | Function description | Example |
| bool mkdir(string $pathname) | Create a specified directory | mkdir('temp'); |
| bool rmdir(string $dirname) | Delete the specified directory, which must be empty | rmdir('tmp') |
| string getcwd(void) | Get the current working directory | getcwd() |
| bool chdir(string directory) | Change the current directory to directory | echo getcwd()." "; chdir('../');echo getcwd()." " |
| float disk_free_space(string directory) | Returns the free space (bytes) of the directory. The files being checked must be accessed through the server's file system | disk_free_space('d:\\appserv'); |
| float disk_total_space(string directory) | Return the total space size of the directory (bytes) | disk_total_sapce('d:\\appserv') |
| string readdir(resource handle) | Return the file name of the next file in the directory (when using this function, the directory must be opened using the opendir() function). Before PHP5, this function was used to browse directories. | while(false!==($path=readdir($handle))){echo $path;} |
| Reassign the specified directory to the beginning of the directory | rewinddir($handle) |

Explain JSON Web Tokens (JWT) and their use case in PHP APIs.
Apr 05, 2025 am 12:04 AM
JWT is an open standard based on JSON, used to securely transmit information between parties, mainly for identity authentication and information exchange. 1. JWT consists of three parts: Header, Payload and Signature. 2. The working principle of JWT includes three steps: generating JWT, verifying JWT and parsing Payload. 3. When using JWT for authentication in PHP, JWT can be generated and verified, and user role and permission information can be included in advanced usage. 4. Common errors include signature verification failure, token expiration, and payload oversized. Debugging skills include using debugging tools and logging. 5. Performance optimization and best practices include using appropriate signature algorithms, setting validity periods reasonably,
Explain late static binding in PHP (static::).
Apr 03, 2025 am 12:04 AM
Static binding (static::) implements late static binding (LSB) in PHP, allowing calling classes to be referenced in static contexts rather than defining classes. 1) The parsing process is performed at runtime, 2) Look up the call class in the inheritance relationship, 3) It may bring performance overhead.
