i want to delete my pdf file from server. my controller function looks like
function delete_pdf()
{
$id = (isset($_GET['id']) && $_GET['id']!='')?$_GET['id']:'1';
$user_email = $this->session->userdata('user_email');
$file = site_url('pdf files/'.$user_email.'/pdf #'. $id.'.pdf');
unlink($file);
}
when i echo $file;, it gives url http://localhost/my_site/pdf files/developer_team#gmail.com/pdf #4.pdf but the function not working to delete the pdf file.
I would appreciate for any help where i can delete my pdf files from server. thank you.
we can't delete file using URL. we need absolute path. try this-:
$file = FCPATH.'pdf files/'.$user_email.'/pdf #'. $id.'.pdf';
try to remove space in pdf #4.pdf in your url
http://localhost/my_site/pdf files/developer_team#gmail.com/pdf #4.pdf
You need the absolute path to the file, I mean something like this
/Users/me/..../my_sites/pdf
The path depends of where is your controller. I don't know how codeigniter works.
EDIT
$file = dirname(__FILE__). DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR .'..'. DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR .'..'. DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR .'pdf files/'.$user_email.'/pdf #'. $id.'.pdf';
It will give you this :
C:\xampp\htdocs\my_site\application\controllers\..\..\pdf files\developer_team#gmail.com\pdf #4.pdf

I'm using summernote as the text editor in a backend. The text and images stored must then be displayed in the pages of the frontend.
The editor and the upload images works, but the problem is to recover the images in the frontend because of the path.
I need to use the absolute path in the img-upload.php file but it doesn't seem to accept it.
img-upload.php
if(empty($_FILES['file']))
{
exit();
}
$errorImgFile = "./img/img_upload_error.jpg";
$temp = explode(".", $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$newfilename = round(microtime(true)) . '.' . end($temp);
$destinationFilePath = '../../images/img-uploads/'.$newfilename ;
if(!move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $destinationFilePath)){
echo $errorImgFile;
}
else{
echo $destinationFilePath;
}
with the relative path works:
$destinationFilePath = '../../images/img-uploads/'.$newfilename ;
but in this way not:
$path = 'http://localhost/sites/my-site/';
$destinationFilePath = $path.'images/img-uploads/'.$newfilename ;
I don't see any error.
Thanks
You have probably figured it out by now...
It seems Summernote does not render images from absolute paths, but the closest you can get is to specify the file from the root path, like:
$path = '/sites/my-site/';
$destinationFilePath = $path.'images/img-uploads/'.$newfilename ;
Results in something like: '/sites/my-site/images/img-uploads/filename.jpg'
If you save this to your database, you can render your images anywhere on your site using this rooth path address for the files.
I suggest you to use Ckfinder or Fileman with Ckeditor. I made a repository for that. Go check it out.

I'm new to yii framework and we have a project in school about uploading and downloading files and I kind of need some assistance...
I followed this link as a sample exactly as it is and it really does upload to the uploads folder in yii but now I'm trying to download it using this code in my view:
$id= $_GET['id'];
$media = Document::model()->findByPk($id);
$path = Yii::app()->basePath . '/../uploads';
$name = $media->doc_file;
Yii::app()->request->sendFile($name, file_get_contents($path."/".$name));
but when it downloads, it wont open because the file format is not supported... any idea how I can
I did a little modification on your code. Pass the id through the url on the view and that will hit the download action inside your controller. You should be good to go with this
public function actionDownload($id)
{
$media = Document::model()->findByPk($id);
$path = Yii::app()->request->baseURL . '/uploads';
$file = $path . '/'.$media->doc_file;
if (file_exists($file)) {
return Yii::app()->getRequest()->sendFile($name, #file_get_contents($path));
}else{
//throw an error here
}
}
This is my upload php:
if (trim($_FILES['path_filename']['name']))
{
if (File::upload($_FILES['path_filename'], dirname(realpath(__FILE__)) . '/../tests'))
{
$test->setPathFilename('../tests/' . $_FILES['path_filename']['name']);
}
}
}
else
{
if ($aux)
{
$aux = str_replace("\\", "/", $aux);
$aux = preg_replace("/[\/]+/", "/", $aux);
$test->setPathFilename($aux);
}
}
$_POST["upload_file"] = $test->getPathFilename();
This above code is working well, I mean, upload to server is working and also getting Path File Name and insert into sql table is working too.
Example: When I upload a file for example: ABC.jpg , it will upload to tests folder and also Path File Name is (( ../tests/ABC.jpg )) and it will insert to sql table.
The problem is here:
I changed global function to rename files automatically by using this following code:
Before It was:
$destinationName = $file['name'];
I changed it to:
$ext = pathinfo($file["name"], PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
$destinationName = sha1_file($file["tmp_name"]).time().".".$ext;
Now, After upload file to tests folder, it will be renamed automatically, but still Path File name is same, It's ABC.jpg not renamed file in tests folder.
How to get Renamed Path File Name ???
I really appreciate your help on this issue.
Thanks in advance
Use basename() to get the filename from a path.
$filename = basename('/path/to/file.ext');
This will give you: file.ext
To rename the path file name you could use this:
if ( !file_exists( $path ) ) {
mkdir( $path, 0777, true );
}
This will make sure the path exist and if it doesn't it will created. Now we can rename()
rename( __FILE__ "/new/path/".$file_name );
This will move it between directories if necessary.
i've code with which i want to check if there is some file located in folder. Every file has at start of filename 00'.$id'-time() so some example "00226-1413203222.pdf".
i have this code for checking if there is some file with that id :
$id = 226;
$searchpath = "files/00" . $id . "-*";
if (file_exists($searchpath)) {
...
...
...
but this code don't want to work, so probably i need some other method to do this?
Can u give me some good advices how to do this best way?
Thank you
Why not use scandir() like so
$id = "26";
$dir_path = "files";
$fileSearchRegex = "/^00".$id."-[0-9]*\.pdf$/";
$foundFile = array_map(function($file){
if(preg_match($fileSearch, $file))
return $file;
}, scandir($dir_path));
I am able to get the web path to the file like so:
$filename = 'elephant.jpg';
$path_to_file = $this->getSkinUrl('manufacturertab');
$full_path = $path_to_file . '/' . $filename;
But if the file doesn't exist, then I end up with a broken image link.
I tried this:
if(!file_exists($full_path)) {
Mage::log('File doesn\'t exist.');
} else {
?><img src="<?php echo $full_path ?>" /><?php
}
Of course that didn't work because file_exists does not work on urls.
How do I solve this?
1.)
Can I translate between system paths and web urls in Magento?
e.g. something like (pseudocode):
$system_path = $this->getSystemPath('manufacturertab');
That looks symmetrical and portable.
or
2.)
Is there some PHP or Magento function for checking remote resource existence? But that seems a waste, since the resource is really local. It would be stupid for PHP to use an http method to check a local file, wouldn't it be?
Solution I am currently using:
$system_path = Mage::getBaseDir('skin') . '/frontend/default/mytheme/manufacturertab'; // portable, but not pretty
$file_path = $system_path . '/' . $filename;
I then check if file_exists and if it does, I display the img. But I don't like the asymmetry between having to hard-code part of the path for the system path, and using a method for the url path. It would be nice to have a method for both.
Function
$localPath = Mage::getSingleton( 'core/design_package' )->getFilename( 'manufacturertab/' . $filename, array( '_type' => 'skin', '_default' => false ) );
will return the same path as
$urlPath = $this->getSkinUrl( 'manufacturertab/' . $filename );
but on your local file system. You can omit the '_default' => false parameter and it will stil work (I left it there just because getSkinUrl also sets it internaly).
Note that the parameter for getSkinUrl and getFilename can be either a file or a directory but you should always use the entire path (with file name) so that the fallback mechanism will work correctly.
Consider the situation
skin/default/default/manufacturertab/a.jpg
skin/yourtheme/default/manufacturertab/b.jpg
In this case the call to getSkinUrl or getFilename would return the path to a.jpg and b.jpg in both cases if file name is provided as a parameter but for your case where you only set the folder name it would return skin/yourtheme/default/manufacturertab/ for both cases and when you would attach the file name and check for a.jpg the check would fail. That's why you shold always provide the entire path as the parameter.
You will still have to use your own function to check if the file exists as getFilename function returns default path if file doesn't exist (returns skin/default/default/manufacturertab/foo.jpg if manufacturertab/foo.jpg doesn't exist).
it help me:
$url = getimagesize($imagepath); //print_r($url); returns an array
if (!is_array($url))
{
//if file does not exists
$imagepath=Mage::getDesign()->getSkinUrl('default path to image');
}
$fileUrl = $this->getSkinUrl('images/elephant.jpg');
$filePath = str_replace( Mage::getBaseUrl(), Mage::getBaseDir() . '/', $fileUrl);
if (file_exists($filePath)) {
// display image ($fileUrl)
}
you can use
$thumb_image = file_get_contents($full_path) //if full path is url
//then check for empty
if (#$http_response_header == NULL) {
// run check
}
you can also use curl or try this link http://junal.wordpress.com/2008/07/22/checking-if-an-image-url-exist/
Mage::getBaseDir() is what you're asking for. For your scenario, getSkinBaseDir() will perform a better job.
$filename = 'elephant.jpg';
$full_path = Mage::getDesign()->getSkinBaseDir().'/manufacturertab/'.$filename;
$full_URL=$this->getSkinUrl('manufacturertab/').$filename;
if(!is_file($full_path)) {
Mage::log('File doesn\'t exist.');
} else {
?><img src="<?php echo $full_URL ?>" /><?php
}
Note that for the <img src> you'll need the URL, not the system path. ...
is_file(), rather than file_exists(), in this case, might be a good option if you're sure you're checking a file, not a dir.
You could use the following:
$file = 'http://mysite.co.za/files/image.jpg';
$file_exists = (#fopen($file, "r")) ? true : false;
Worked for me when trying to check if an image exists on the URL
