### Easy filesystem and IO functions for PHP

[](#easy-filesystem-and-io-functions-for-php)

Atlas provides an easy and accessible interface to file system interaction. Read, write, copy and move files without breaking a sweat.

---

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

This package requires PHP 8.4 or higher.

Install via Composer:

```
composer require decodelabs/atlas
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Basic local filesystem functions

[](#basic-local-filesystem-functions)

There are many standard filesystem functions represented by either `File` or `Dir` objects. See [Context.php](./src/Context.php), [File.php](./src/File.php) and [Dir.php](./src/Dir.php) and [Node.php](./src/Node.php) for the full list.

```
use DecodeLabs\Atlas;

Atlas::get('/path/to/dir_or_file')
    ->copyTo('/another/path/');

Atlas::createDir('some/dir/path', 0770);

Atlas::getFile('my/file')
    ->renameTo('file.txt')
    ->setOwner('user');

Atlas::getGzFile('my/file.gz', 'w')
    ->write('hello world')
    ->close();
```

### Dir scanning

[](#dir-scanning)

Scan the contents of a folder with optional filtering.. Replace "scan" for "list" to return an array rather than a `Generator`:

```
use DecodeLabs\Atlas;

foreach(Atlas::scan('my/dir') as $name => $fileOrDir) {
    // All files and dirs in my/dir
}

foreach(Atlas::scanDirs('my/dir') as $name => $dir) {
    // All dirs in my/dir
}

foreach(Atlas::listFilesRecursive('my/dir', function($name, $file) {
    // Return true if you want the file to be output
    return $name !== 'BadFile.php';
}) as $name => $file) {
    // All files in all dirs in my/dir
}
```

See [Dir/ScannerTrait.php](./src/Dir/ScannerTrait.php) for all scanning options.
