Hi.

I have a project folder and inside this project folder I have the folder "screenshots". Via the backend, I can select the project folder. Now I want to create an array with the url all files inside the screenshots folder, but I can't open the directory :-(

Here is my code:

public function Screenshots() {
	$path = $this->BaseHref().$this->ProjectFolderPath().'screenshots/';
	$files = array();
	
	if($handle = opendir($path)) {
		while($file = readdir($handle)) {
			if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
				array_push($files, $file);
			}
		}
		closedir($handle);
		return $files;
	} else {
		echo 'failed to open directory';
		return false;
	}
}

public function ProjectFolderPath() {
	$folder = DataObject::get_by_id('Folder', $this->ProjectFolderID);
	return $folder->getRelativePath();
}

Has anyone an idea of what the problem is...? Thanks in advance.

Cheers, Mario

Hi Mario,

what happens when you place a Debug::show($path); after your
$path = $this->BaseHref().$this->ProjectFolderPath().'screenshots/';?

Or in other words... are you sure, $path is correct/leads to an actual path?

Yes, the path is correct.

When I enable debugging, I get this:

[Warning] opendir(http://new.knsqnt.com/assets/Portfolio/Brooke-Fraser/screenshots/) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: not implemented

Can you figure out a bit better than me what it means?

Uh, oh... this is the first time i see this error message (but a great chance to challenge my Google-Fu!)

I searched for the error a bit and if i understand opendir correctly, it
doesn't work with an Url, except if directory listing is enabled on the server.

So, maybe directory listing is not enabled on your server?

I keep investigating...

Ah, good hint! Let's see who's faster...

Not quite sure on this, but what happens if you use:

$path = Director::baseFolder() . '/' . $this->ProjectFolderPath() . 'screenshots/';

instead of your $path = $this->BaseHref... ?

Cheers

Sweet Dude! You rock! Work perfectly! Great! Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!

Wohooo great! And I also learned something new from this thread! *throws confetti*
