PHP Scan dir for idetical files

[Porsche_maniak]

I am not good with php and will ask for help...

* The folder is named 'fav'
* There are subfolders in 'fav'
* Each subfolder may contain a .txt file

Needed -->
* Check for identical .txt file names in all subfolders
* Sort 10 most repeating identicals,show(echo) their contents and show(echo) times repeated (in brackets such as this one )

And.. that's it !
I hope you'll code it easily for me..

THANKS !

If i am unclear with something please tell..

Well this would have to be done recursively.

$storage = array();
function ScanForTextFiles($folder)
{
    global $storage;
    $resource = opendir($folder);
    while(false != ($file = readdir($resource)))
    {
         $current = $folder . $file;
         if($file != '.' || $file != '..' && is_dir( $current )) //Changed to file from current
         {
               ScanForTextFiles($current);
         }elseif(is_file($current) && substr($current,-3) == 'txt') //Updated to check format
         {
            if(!isset($storage[$file]))
            {
                 $storage[$file] = 0; //Start with 0 counts
            }else
            {
               $storage[$file]++; //Add 1 more count
            }
        }
    }
}
ScanForTextFiles('path/to/fav/'); //WITH LAST SLASH 

//Then just sort $storage to print how you want it..

Code is untested.

I tried everything and gives errors.
Also i saw that it finds files in fav folder which are outside it (one level down).

Btw the folder is just 'fav/' and i want to be sorted in numeric and show the most 10..

<?php
function RecurseFolderLister($d)
{
    $BasePath = realpath($d);
    $Storage = array();
    
    if(is_dir($BasePath))
    {
        $resource = opendir($BasePath);
        while(false !== ($directory = readdir($resource)))
        {
            if(is_dir($BasePath . '/' . $directory) && !in_array($directory,array('.','..'))) //DirCheck the TypeCheck
            {
                $Storage = array_merge($Storage,RecurseFolderLister($BasePath . '/' . $directory));
            }else
            {
                if(is_file($BasePath . '/' . $directory) && substr($directory,-3) == 'txt')
                {
                    //We have text file
                    $key = basename($BasePath . '/' . $directory);
                    
                    if(!isset($Storage[$key]))
                    {
                        $Storage[$key] = 0;
                    }
                    $Storage[$key]++;
                }
            }
        }
    }
    return $Storage;
}
$Storage = RecurseFolderLister('fav');
asort($Storage); //Sort them
var_dump($Storage);
?>

Sorted!

[Porsche_maniak]

So far so good...
I used :

$entry_arrayz[ 'entry' ]  .= $Storage = RecurseFolderLister('fav'); asort($Storage); var_dump($Storage);

where $entry_arrayz[ 'entry' ] is the place where sorted $storage will show,but i get :

array(1) { ["entry100620-034822.txt"]=> int(1) } 

Array

How to print that thing ?

Also in the following case i've put entry100620-034822.txt in 2 different folders (which means entry100620-034822.txt is repeating 2 times) and a.txt (just 1)

array(2) { ["a.txt"]=> int(1) ["entry100620-034822.txt"]=> int(1) }

Array

So another question - Is there "* Sort 10 most repeating identicals,show(echo) their contents and show(echo) times repeated (in brackets such as this one )" in your code ?

I am really bad in PHP so sorry that i am asking such a stupid questions.

[litewarez]

hmm,

Just do

$entry_arrayz[ 'entry' ] = RecurseFolderLister('fav');

var_dump($entry_arrayz['entry']); 

Tell me you get and what you SHOULD get :/

And this code will do the following

scann all directories within the directory you specify, load all files that are .txt files into an array, and count how many times it came accross that file

The output would be like so

Array(
    'Name' > Count
    'Name' > Count
    'Name' > Count
    'Name' > Count
)

Like

Array(
    'readme.txt' > 12
    'about.txt' > 3
    'test.txt' > 1
    'readmeAgain.txt' > 1
   
)

I've tried

$entry_arrayz[ 'entry' ] = RecurseFolderLister('fav');

var_dump($entry_arrayz['entry']);

but it's the same...

Btw read my prev post if haven't (i edited it)..
