FLOPS - Fluent Local PHile system API
=====================================

[](#flops---fluent-local-phile-system-api)

FLOPS is a API only for the Local File system with a fluent but verbosity (no abbreviations) interface support.

Key features:

- No dependencies (excepts POSIX extension)
- No regular expressions
- No use of SPL (Standard PHP Library)
- Proven and simplest patterns (see PHP documentation)

Use PHP internals for filesystem:

`chgrp` `chmod` `clearstatcache` `copy` `disk_​free_​space` `disk_​total_​space` `fclose` `feof` `fgetc` `fgets``file_​exists` `file_​get_​contents` `file_​put_​contents` `fileatime` `filectime` `filegroup` `filemtime` `fileowner``fileperms` `filesize` `fopen` `fread` `fseek` `ftell` `ftruncate` `fwrite` `is_​dir` `is_​executable` `is_​file``is_​link` `is_​readable` `is_​writable` `mkdir` `pathinfo` `readlink` `realpath` `rename` `rmdir` `symlink` `touch` `unlink`

Example of use:

```
use JayBeeR\Flops\LocalFileSystem;

$localBinaries = LocalFileSystem::get('/usr/local/bin/');
$composerFile = LocalFileSystem::get('composer.phar');
$composerBinary = $composerFile->copyTo($localBinaries)->omitExtension();
$composerBinary->setPermission(function(Permissions $permissions) {
    $permissions->setExecutionAccessRightsForAll();
});

```
