PHP Toolkit - Fileinfo
======================

[](#php-toolkit---fileinfo)

This library provides features to read file information.

It provides an abstraction layer above SplFileInfo for consistent behavior and easier usage.

- Ability to retrieve the file name without its extension
- Human-readable file sizes
- Usage of `DateTime` objects instead of Unix timestamps
- Ability to retrieve the file owner/group (via posix\_\* functions)
- Human-readable permissions

File information is read during construction of the FileInfo instance or when `FileInfo::reload()` is called.

For easier dependency injection in projects, a simple `FileInfoFactory` is provided.

The current build status and code analysis can be found here:

- [Scrutinizer CI](https://scrutinizer-ci.com/g/gmitirol/toolkit-fileinfo/)
