Directoreez (directories made easy)

Overview

Directoreez is a PHP 5.3 library which abstracts the manipulation of local or remote directories. It is intended to enable the developer to perform standard file operations relative to a given root directory path. By providing a standard "Directory" interface the developer is also able to easily switch out local and remote directories within their applications by simply using a different Directory implementation.

Requirements

- PHP 5.3+
- PHP ssh2 extension installed

Usage

Local Directory:

// create a Directory object for a local directory
$directory = new \Directoreez\LocalDirectory('/path/to/directory/1');

Remote Directory:

// create an authentication object to connect to remote server
$authentication = new \Directoreez\Authentication\Password('username', 'password');

// create a Directory object for a remote directory
$directory = new \Directoreez\RemoteDirectory('/directory/path/on/remote/server', 'somehost.com', 22, $authentication);

Operations:

// create the root directory if it doesn't exist already
$directory->create(0777);

// create a new directory relative to the Directory object's root
$directory->mkdir('/new-directory', 0777);

// put a new file
$directory->fputs('/new-directory/new-file.txt', 'hello world');

// check if a file exits
$exists = $directory->exists('/new-directory/new-file.txt');

// change permissions
$directory->chmod('/new-directory', 0644);

// delete a file
$directory->delete('/new-directory/new-file.txt');

// get directory contents (as an array)
$contents = $directory->ls('/new-directory');

// copy a file from a location to the Directory
$directory->copyFrom('/my/local/file.txt', '/new-directory/file.txt');

// copy a file from the Dirctory to another location
$directory->copyTo('/new-directory/file.txt', '/my/local/file.txt');

// empty an entire directory
$directory->clean();

// execute a command
// you must provide an anonymous function which accepts the absolute path to the given directory
$contents = $directory->execute('/some/directory', function($path){
    return "ls -la {$path}";
});

// switch Directory to a new root
for($x=0; $x<10; $x++){
    $directory->switchTo('/path/to/directory/' . $x);
    var_dump($directory->ls());
}
