glob()

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• GLOB_NOESCAPE - Backslashes do not quote metacharacters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

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

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

참고: 이 함수는 원격 파일을 다루지 못합니다. 파일은 서버 파일시스템을 통해서 사용 가능해야만 합니다.
