PHP: Returns a detailed list of files in the given directory

Description

array ftp_rawlist ( resource $ftp_stream , string $directory [, bool $recursive ] )

ftp_rawlist() executes the FTP LIST command, and returns the result as an array.

Parameters

ftp_stream: The link identifier of the FTP connection.
directory: The directory path.
recursive: If set to TRUE, the issued command will be LIST -R.

Return Values

Returns an array where each element corresponds to one line of text.

The output is not parsed in any way. The system type identifier returned by ftp_systype() can be used to determine how the results should be interpreted.

Examples

Example #1 ftp_rawlist() example


<?php



// set up basic connection

$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);



// login with username and password

$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);



// get the file list for /

$buff = ftp_rawlist($conn_id, '/');



// close the connection

ftp_close($conn_id);



// output the buffer

var_dump($buff);

?>

The above example will output something similar to:

array(3) {
  [0]=>
  string(65) "drwxr-x---   3 vincent  vincent      4096 Jul 12 12:16 public_ftp"
  [1]=>
  string(66) "drwxr-x---  15 vincent  vincent      4096 Nov  3 21:31 public_html"
  [2]=>
  string(73) "lrwxrwxrwx   1 vincent  vincent        11 Jul 12 12:16 www -> public_html"
}
