PHP code example to list all files in a directory

This article introduces an example code that uses PHP to list all files in a directory for your reference.

List all files in the directory, the code is as follows:

<?php
$current_dir = 'E:/temp/';
$dir = opendir($current_dir);
echo "direcotry list:<ul>";
while(false !== ($file=readdir($dir))){
if($file != "." && $file != ".."){
echo "<li>$file</li>";
}
} //by bbs.it-home.org
echo "</ul>";
closedir($dir);
?>

If the directory and the website are in the same partition, you can also use $current_dir='/temp/'; directly.

The above is an example under Windows. Let’s look at a PHP example under Linux that lists all files in a directory. as follows: 1. Get the files in the directory, excluding subdirectories.

<?php
//获取某目录下所有文件、目录名（不包括子目录下文件、目录名）
    $handler = opendir($dir);
    while (($filename = readdir($handler)) !== false) {//务必使用!==，防止目录下出现类似文件名“0”等情况
        if ($filename != "." && $filename != "..") {
                $files[] = $filename ;
           }
       }
    }
    closedir($handler);
     
//打印所有文件名
foreach ($filens as $value) {
    echo $value."<br />";
}
?>

2. Get all files in the directory, including subdirectories.

<?php
function get_allfiles($path,&$files) {
    if(is_dir($path)){
        $dp = dir($path);
        while ($file = $dp ->read()){
            if($file !="." && $file !=".."){
                get_allfiles($path."/".$file, $files);
            }
        }
        $dp ->close();
    }
    if(is_file($path)){
        $files[] =  $path;
    }
} //edit bbs.it-home.org
   
function get_filenamesbydir($dir){
    $files =  array();
    get_allfiles($dir,$files);
    return $files;
}
   
$filenames = get_filenamesbydir("static/image/");
//打印所有文件名，包括路径
foreach ($filenames as $value) {
    echo $value."<br />";
}
?>
