I'm working with a script where i want to move folders to another directory,and give the folders new name.
I think i need to explode a string? But i don't get it to work properly.
Example i want the folder with original name: 351437-367628 and to have new name: from start to the hyphen.
I'm moving the folder by the glob and rename function.
<?php
if ($handle = opendir('folders')) {
while (false !== ($fileName = readdir($handle))) {
$newName = str_replace("-#","",$fileName);
rename($fileName, $newName);
}
closedir($handle);
}
?>
You can use explode() function as
$fileName = '351437-367628';
$newNametemp = explode("-",$fileName);
if(is_array($newNametemp)){
$newName = $newNametemp[0];
print_r($newName); // will return 351437,i.e. new name from start to hyphen
rename($fileName, $newName);
}
To get all directories
$dir = new DirectoryIterator('path');
foreach ($dir as $fileInfo) {
if ($fileInfo->isDir() && !$fileInfo->isDot()) {
$fileName = $fileInfo->getFilename();
$newNametemp = explode("-",$fileName);
if(is_array($newNametemp)){
$newName = $newNametemp[0];
print_r($newName);
rename($fileName, $newName);
}
}
}
if you are using a lower version of PHP try
if ($handle = opendir('path')) {
while (false !== ($fileName = readdir($handle))) {
if(is_dir($fileName) && ($fileName != '..' && $fileName != '.')){
$newNametemp = explode("_",$fileName);
if(is_array($newNametemp)){
$newName = $newNametemp[0];
print_r($newName);
echo "<br/>";
rename($fileName, $newName);
}
}
}
closedir($handle);
}

<?php
$dir = opendir('C:\Users\Prometheus\Desktop\milkmaid');
$i = 1;
// loop through all the files in the directory
while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir)))
{
if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
$newName = $i.'.mp4';
$oldname = $file;
rename($oldname, $newName);
$i++;
}
}
?>
when i run above script, i am getting following error:
The system cannot find the file specified. (code: 2)
$dir is not a string. You can't concatenate $file with it. You will need to put the directory in a separate variable, and not forget to put a / in between directory and filename.
Adding $dir in the rename() works for me
<?php
$dir = opendir('C:\Users\Prometheus\Desktop\milkmaid');
$i = 1;
// loop through all the files in the directory
while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir)))
{
if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
$newName = $i.'.mp4';
$oldname = $file;
rename($dir.$oldname, $dir.$newName);
$i++;
}
}
?>
Use it like this :-
$directory = '/public_html/testfolder/';
$i=1;
if ($handle = opendir($directory)) {
while (false !== ($fileName = readdir($handle))) {
$newName = $i.'.mp4';
rename($directory . $fileName, $directory . $newName);
$i++:
}
closedir($handle);
}
This worked for me
<?php
$counter = 1;
$dir = 'D:\files'; //path of folder
if ($handle = opendir($dir))
{
while (false !== ($fileName = readdir($handle)))
{
if($fileName != '.' && $fileName != '..')
{
$newName = $counter . " - " . $fileName;
rename($dir."/".$fileName, $dir."/".$newName);
$counter++;
}
}
closedir($handle);
}
?>
I am using this code in order to get a list files from directory:
$dir = '/restosnapp_cms/images/';
if ($dp = opendir($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $dir)) {
$files = array();
while (($file = readdir($dp)) !== false) {
if (!is_dir($dir . $file)) {
$files[] = $file;
}
}
closedir($dp);
} else {
exit('Directory not opened.');
}
I want to get rid of the values '.' and '..'.
Is it possible to do this? Thank you. :)
Just check for them first:
while ($file = readdir($p)) {
if ($file == '.' || $file == '..') {
continue;
}
// rest of your code
}
DirectoryIterator is much more fun than *dir functions:
$dir = new DirectoryIterator($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $dir);
foreach($dir as $file) {
if (!$file->isDir() && !$file->isDot()) {
$files[] = $file->getPathname();
}
}
But the bottomline is regardless of which way you do it, you need to use a conditional.
I was wondering if anyone could help me write a PHP script for me that renames all the files in a directory in a sequence.
So...
DSC_10342.JPG -> 1.JPG
DSC_10343.JPG -> 2.JPG
DSC_10344.JPG -> 3.JPG
and so on.
Here's my version:
// open the current directory (change this to modify where you're looking)
$dir = opendir('.');
$i = 1;
// loop through all the files in the directory
while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir)))
{
// if the extension is '.jpg'
if (strtolower(pathinfo($file, PATHINFO_EXTENSION)) == 'jpg')
{
// do the rename based on the current iteration
$newName = $i . '.jpg';
rename($file, $newName);
// increase for the next loop
$i++;
}
}
// close the directory handle
closedir($dir);
Use rename to rename the files. You can use this handy script to loop through all files in a directory:
<?php
if ($handle = opendir('.')) {
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
echo "$file\n";
}
}
closedir($handle);
}
?>
Then it's just a matter of looking at the filenames ($file) and figuring out what number to give them. If you need more help than that, just tell me and I'll give more details.
Try this:
$handler = opendir($directory);
$index = 1;
while ($file = readdir($handler)) {
if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
rename($directory."/".$file, $directory."/".$index.".JPG");
$index++;
}
}
closedir($handler);
Using someone's snippet it would look like this:
<?php
$path = '.';
$i = 1;
if ($handle = opendir($path)) {
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
if ($file != "." && $file != ".." && is_file($path.'/'.$file)) {
$oldname = $path.'/'.$file;
$path_info = pathinfo($oldname);
rename($oldname, $path.'/'.($i++).'.'.$path_info['extension']);
}
}
closedir($handle);
}
?>
It will rename files with all extensions and skip directories that may be inside your directory.
I have 1000 images in a Folder, which has SKU# word in all the images. For examples
WV1716BNSKU#.zoom.1.jpg
WV1716BLSKU#.zoom.3.jpg
what i need to do is read all the filenames and rename it to the following
WV1716BN.zoom.1.jpg
WV1716BL.zoom.3.jpg
So remove SKU# from filename, is it possible in PHP to do bulk renaming ?
Yeah, just open the directory and create a loop to access all images and rename them, like:
<?php
if ($handle = opendir('./path/to/files')) {
while (false !== ($fileName = readdir($handle))) {
if($fileName != '.' && $fileName != '..') {
$newName = str_replace("SKU#","",$fileName);
rename('./path/to/files/'.$fileName, './path/to/files'.$newName);
}
}
closedir($handle);
}
?>
References:
http://php.net/manual/en/function.rename.php
http://php.net/manual/en/function.readdir.php
http://php.net/manual/en/function.str-replace.php
piece of cake:
foreach (array_filter(glob("$dir/WV1716B*.jpg") ,"is_file") as $f)
rename ($f, str_replace("SKU#", "", $f));
(or $dir/*.jpg if number doesn't matter)
The steps to completing this is pretty simple:
iterate over each file using fopen, readdir
for each file parse the file name into segments
copy the old file into a new directly called old (sanity reasons)
rename the root file top the new name.
A small example:
if ($handle = opendir('/path/to/images'))
{
/* Create a new directory for sanity reasons*/
if(is_directory('/path/to/images/backup'))
{
mkdir('/path/to/images/backup');
}
/*Iterate the files*/
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle)))
{
if ($file != "." && $file != "..")
{
if(!strstr($file,"#SKU"))
{
continue; //Skip as it does not contain #SKU
}
copy("/path/to/images/" . $file,"/path/to/images/backup/" . $file);
/*Remove the #SKU*/
$newf = str_replace("#SKU","",$file);
/*Rename the old file accordingly*/
rename("/path/to/images/" . $file,"/path/to/images/" . $newf);
}
}
/*Close the handle*/
closedir($handle);
}
Well, using iterators:
class SKUFilterIterator extends FilterIterator {
public function accept() {
if (!parent::current()->isFile()) return false;
$name = parent::current()->getFilename();
return strpos($name, 'SKU#') !== false;
}
}
$it = new SkuFilterIterator(
new DirectoryIterator('path/to/files')
);
foreach ($it as $file) {
$newName = str_replace('SKU#', '', $file->getPathname());
rename($file->getPathname(), $newName);
}
The FilterIterator basically filters out all non-files, and files without the SKU# in them. Then all you do is iterate, declare a new name, and rename the file...
Or in 5.3+ using the new GlobIterator:
$it = new GlobIterator('path/to/files/*SKU#*');
foreach ($it as $file) {
if (!$file->isFile()) continue; //Only rename files
$newName = str_replace('SKU#', '', $file->getPathname());
rename($file->getPathname(), $newName);
}
You can also use this sample:
$directory = 'img';
$gallery = scandir($directory);
$gallery = preg_grep ('/\.jpg$/i', $gallery);
// print_r($gallery);
foreach ($gallery as $k2 => $v2) {
if (exif_imagetype($directory."/".$v2) == IMAGETYPE_JPEG) {
rename($directory.'/'.$v2, $directory.'/'.str_replace("#SKU","",$v2));
}
}
$curDir = "/path/to/unprocessed/files";
$newdir = "/path/to/processed/files";
if ($handle = opendir($curDir))
{
//make the new directory if it does not exist
if(!is_dir($newdir))
{
mkdir($newdir);
}
//Iterate the files
while ($file = readdir($handle))
{
// invalid files check (directories or files with no extentions)
if($file != "." && $file != "..")
{
//copy
copy($curDir."/".$file, $newdir."/".$file);
$newName = str_replace("SKU#","",$file);
//rename
rename($newdir."/".$file, $newdir."/".$newName.".jpg");
}
}
closedir($handle);
}
I created a script that list the directories in the current directory
<?php
$dir = getcwd();
if($handle = opendir($dir)){
while($file = readdir($handle)){
if(is_dir($file)){
echo "$file<br />";
}
}
?>
but the problem is, I am seeing this ".." and "." right above the directory listings, when someone clicks it, they get redirected one level up the directories.. can someone tell me how to remove those ".." and "." ?
If you use opendir/readdir/closedir functions, you have to check manually:
<?php
if ($handle = opendir($dir)) {
while ($file = readdir($handle)) {
if ($file === '.' || $file === '..' || !is_dir($file)) continue;
echo "$file<br />";
}
}
?>
If you want to use DirectoryIterator, there is isDot() method:
<?php
$iterator = new DirectoryIterator($dir);
foreach ($iterator as $fileInfo) {
if ($fileInfo->isDot() || !$fileInfo->isDir()) continue;
$file = $fileinfo->getFilename();
echo "$file<br />";
}
?>
Note: I think that continue can simplify this kind of loops by reducing indentation level.
Or use glob:
foreach(glob('/path/*.*') as $file) {
printf('%s<br/>', $file, $file);
}
If your files don't follow the filename dot extension pattern, use
array_filter(glob('/path/*'), 'is_file')
to get an array of (non-hidden) filenames only.
Skips all hidden and "dot directories":
while($file = readdir($handle)){
if (substr($file, 0, 1) == '.') {
continue;
}
Skips dot directories:
while($file = readdir($handle)){
if ($file == '.' || $file == '..') {
continue;
}
<?php
if($handle = opendir($dir)){
while($file = readdir($handle)){
if(is_dir($file) && $file !== '.' && $file !== '..'){
echo "$file<br />";
}
}
}
?>
