Documentation can be found on the [website](https://doc.nette.org/finder). If you like Nette, **[please make a donation now](https://nette.org/donate)**. Thank you! Installation ------------ The recommended way to install is via Composer: ``` composer require nette/finder ``` It requires PHP version 5.6 and supports PHP up to 7.3. The dev-master version requires PHP 7.1. Usage ----- How to find all `*.txt` files in `$dir` directory without recursing subdirectories? ```php foreach (Finder::findFiles('*.txt')->in($dir) as $key => $file) { echo $key; // $key is a string containing absolute filename with path echo $file; // $file is an instance of SplFileInfo } ``` As a result, the finder returns instances of `SplFileInfo`. If the directory does not exist, an `UnexpectedValueException` is thrown. And what about searching for `*.txt` files in `$dir` including subdirectories? Instead of `in()`, use `from()`: ```php foreach (Finder::findFiles('*.txt')->from($dir) as $file) { echo $file; } ``` Search by more masks, even inside more directories within one iteration: ```php foreach (Finder::findFiles('*.txt', '*.php') ->in($dir1, $dir2) as $file) { ... } ``` Parameters can also be arrays: ```php foreach (Finder::findFiles($masks)->in($dirs) as $file) { ... } ``` Searching for `*.txt` files containing a number in the name: ```php foreach (Finder::findFiles('*[0-9]*.txt')->from($dir) as $file) { ... } ``` Searching for `*.txt` files, except those containing '`X`' in the name: ```php foreach (Finder::findFiles('*.txt') ->exclude('*X*')->from($dir) as $file) { ... } ``` `exclude()` is specified just after `findFiles()`, thus it applies to filename. Directories to omit can be specified using the `exclude` **after** `from` clause: ```php foreach (Finder::findFiles('*.php') ->from($dir)->exclude('temp', '.git') as $file) { ... } ``` Here `exclude()` is after `from()`, thus it applies to the directory name. And now something a bit more complicated: searching for `*.txt` files located in subdirectories starting with '`te`', but not '`temp`': ```php foreach (Finder::findFiles('te*/*.txt') ->exclude('temp*/*')->from($dir) as $file) { ... } ``` Depth of search can be limited using the `limitDepth()` method. Searching for directories ------------------------- In addition to files, it is possible to search for directories using `Finder::findDirectories('subdir*')`, or to search for files and directories: `Finder::find('file.txt')`. Filtering --------- You can also filter results. For example by size. This way we will traverse the files of size between 100B and 200B: ```php foreach (Finder::findFiles('*.php')->size('>=', 100)->size('<=', 200) ->from($dir) as $file) { ... } ``` Or files changed in the last two weeks: ```php foreach (Finder::findFiles('*.php')->date('>', '- 2 weeks') ->from($dir) as $file) { ... } ``` Here we traverse PHP files with number of lines greater than 1000. As a filter we use a custom callback: ```php $finder = Finder::findFiles('*.php')->filter(function($file) { return count(file($file->getPathname())) > 1000; })->from($dir); ``` Finder, find images larger than 50px × 50px: ```php foreach (Finder::findFiles('*') ->dimensions('>50', '>50')->from($dir) as $file) { ... } ``` Connection to Amazon S3 ----------------------- It's possible to use custom streams, for example Zend_Service_Amazon_S3: ```php $s3 = new Zend_Service_Amazon_S3($key, $secret); $s3->registerStreamWrapper('s3'); foreach (Finder::findFiles('photos*') ->size('<=', 1e6)->in('s3://bucket-name') as $file) { echo $file; } ``` Handy, right? You will certainly find a use for Finder in your applications.
