fileManager
===========

[](#filemanager)

Easy to use, chainable PHP fileManager class with UNIX-like methods

---

Refactoring plan, structure and features:

- Keeps state of file explorer in object
- Hooks file's read/write/delete by file extension
- Folders as property and via method:
    - `$fileManager->testFolder->open();`
    - `$fileManager->open("Test folder");`
- Main objects: Directory & File
    - Directory:
        - Name +
        - Path +
        - Files +
        - Directories +
        - Tree +
        - Size +
        - Date +
    - File:
        - Name +
        - Path +
        - Content +
        - Size +
        - Date +
- Entry Class: FileManager
    - Current directory
    - Folders array (For Safe property access) as trait for this and Directory class
    - Main actions (API)
