List all the files and folders in a Directory with PHP recursive function

by

Get all the files and folders in a directory, don’t call function when you have . or ...

Your code :

<?php
function getDirContents($dir, &$results = array()) {
    $files = scandir($dir);

    foreach ($files as $key => $value) {
        $path = realpath($dir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $value);
        if (!is_dir($path)) {
            $results[] = $path;
        } else if ($value != "." && $value != "..") {
            getDirContents($path, $results);
            $results[] = $path;
        }
    }

    return $results;
}

var_dump(getDirContents('/xampp/htdocs/WORK'));

Output (example) :

array (size=12)
  0 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/iframe.html' (length=30)
  1 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/index.html' (length=29)
  2 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/js' (length=21)
  3 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/js/btwn.js' (length=29)
  4 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/js/qunit' (length=27)
  5 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/js/qunit/qunit.css' (length=37)
  6 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/js/qunit/qunit.js' (length=36)
  7 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/js/unit-test.js' (length=34)
  8 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/xxxxx.js' (length=30)
  9 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/plane.png' (length=28)
  10 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/qunit.html' (length=29)
  11 => string '/xampp/htdocs/WORK/styles.less' (length=30)
