<?php
define("START","/home/ronan/Projects");
define("BRK"," ");
function getDirFiles($dirPath,$depth=0) {
if ($handle = opendir($dirPath)) {
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
// Make sure we aren't using this dir or the dir above us
if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
// Print $file, indented by depth*BRK
echo str_repeat(BRK,$depth).trim($dirPath."/".$file)."<br>";
if (is_dir($dirPath."/".$file)) {
// If $file is a directory recursively call the function to
// list the files for that directory
getDirFiles($dirPath."/".$file,($depth+1));
}
}
}
// Close the dir handle
closedir($handle);
}
}
getDirFiles(START);
?>
That will give you an indented directory tree listing from the START directory, using BRK to create the indents. This has no directory limit and will simply work through the entire tree.
Is that what you're after ?
You could build in your search logic pretty easily I think, with an
'if (preg_match()) {}' type structure.
