PHP CodeIgniter - How to count images inside folders and their respective subfolders - php

Question

How to count total numbers of images inside our folders and subfolders?
I put this in my view. Well, as MVC way, this may look sucks to be in view. I know how to put this into models, but don't know how to call it with controllers and views
<?php
$img = count(glob("./assets/images/*.*"));
$about = count(glob("./assets/images/aboutus/*.*"));
$blog1 = count(glob("./assets/images/blog/*.*"));
$mason = count(glob("./assets/images/blog/masonary/*.*"));
$tl = count(glob("./assets/images/blog/timeline/*.*"));
$blog2 = count(glob("./assets/images/blogdetails/*.*"));
$gallery = count(glob("./assets/images/gallery/*.*"));
$home = count(glob("./assets/images/home/*.*"));
$home2 = count(glob("./assets/images/home/slider/*.*"));
$ico = count(glob("./assets/images/ico/*.*"));
$lb = count(glob("./assets/images/lightbox/*.*"));
$keg = count(glob("./assets/images/kegiatan/*.*"));
$port1 = count(glob("./assets/images/portfolio/*.*"));
$port2 = count(glob("./assets/images/portfolio-details/*.*"));
$leader = count(glob("./assets/images/leaders/*.*"));
$srv = count(glob("./assets/images/services/*.*"));
$usr = count(glob("./assets/images/users/*.*"));
$count = $img+$about+$blog1+$mason+$tl+$blog2+$gallery+$home+$home2+$ico+$lb+$keg+$port1+$port2+$leader+$srv+$usr;
?>
Output:
<div class="col-sm-3 text-center wow bounceIn" data-wow-duration="1000ms" data-wow-delay="300ms">
<h1 class="timer bold" data-to="<?= $count;?>" data-speed="3000" data-from="0"></h1>
<h3>Total Images</h3>
</div>
Is there a way to make this simple?

Please take a look at

You could do it like this using the [RecursiveDirectoryIterator][1]
<?php
function scan_dir($path){
$ite=new RecursiveDirectoryIterator($path);
$bytestotal=0;
$nbfiles=0;
foreach (new RecursiveIteratorIterator($ite) as $filename=>$cur) {
$filesize=$cur->getSize();
$bytestotal+=$filesize;
$nbfiles++;
$files[] = $filename;
}
$bytestotal=number_format($bytestotal);
return array('total_files'=>$nbfiles,
'total_size'=>$bytestotal,'files'=>$files);
}
$files = scan_dir('./');
echo "Total: {$files['total_files']} files, {$files['total_size']} >bytes\n";
//Total: 1195 files, 357,374,878 bytes
?>

Hope it helps

Format to call a method in a model from a controller.
Model file:
application/models/Photo_shoot_model.php
class Photo_shoot_model extends CI_Model {
public function image_count() {
$img = count(glob("./assets/images/*.*"));
$about = count(glob("./assets/images/aboutus/*.*"));
$blog1 = count(glob("./assets/images/blog/*.*"));
$mason = count(glob("./assets/images/blog/masonary/*.*"));
$tl = count(glob("./assets/images/blog/timeline/*.*"));
$blog2 = count(glob("./assets/images/blogdetails/*.*"));
$gallery = count(glob("./assets/images/gallery/*.*"));
$home = count(glob("./assets/images/home/*.*"));
$home2 = count(glob("./assets/images/home/slider/*.*"));
$ico = count(glob("./assets/images/ico/*.*"));
$lb = count(glob("./assets/images/lightbox/*.*"));
$keg = count(glob("./assets/images/kegiatan/*.*"));
$port1 = count(glob("./assets/images/portfolio/*.*"));
$port2 = count(glob("./assets/images/portfolio-details/*.*"));
$leader = count(glob("./assets/images/leaders/*.*"));
$srv = count(glob("./assets/images/services/*.*"));
$usr = count(glob("./assets/images/users/*.*"));
$count = $img+$about+$blog1+$mason+$tl+$blog2+$gallery+$home+$home2+$ico+$lb+$keg+$port1+$port2+$leader+$srv+$usr;
return $count;
}
}
In controller:
public function index() {
// load model
$this->load->model('photo_shoot_model');
// call method
$howManyImages = $this->photo_shoot_model->image_count()
}

But really, I'd use the RecursiveDirectoryIterator mentioned by #MayurVirkar.
