FlyFinder can search for files that are hidden (either because they are hidden files themselves, or because they are inside a hidden directory), that have a certain extension, or that exist in a certain path. Flyfinder does *not* return directories themselves... only files. Installation ------------ [](#installation) The easiest way to install this library is with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org) using the following command: ``` $ composer require phpdocumentor/flyfinder ``` Examples -------- [](#examples) Ready to dive in and don't want to read through all that text below? Just consult the [examples](examples) folder and check which type of action that your want to accomplish. Usage ----- [](#usage) In order to use the FlyFinder plugin you first need a Flyfinder filesystem with an adapter, for instance the local adapter. ``` use League\Flysystem\Filesystem; use League\Flysystem\Local\LocalFilesystemAdapter as LocalAdapter; use Flyfinder\Finder; $filesystem = new Filesystem(new LocalAdapter(__DIR__.'/path/to/files/')); ``` Now you can create the `Finder` instance: ``` $finder = new Finder($filesystem); ``` FlyFinder will need specifications to know what to look for. The following specifications are available: - IsHidden (this specification will return `true` when a file or directory is hidden, - HasExtension (this specification will return `true` when a file or directory has the specified extension), - InPath (this specification will return `true` when a file is in the given path. Wildcards are allowed.) - note that this path should be considered relative to the `$filesystem`'s path Specifications can be instantiated as follows: ``` use Flyfinder\Path; use Flyfinder\Specification\IsHidden; use Flyfinder\Specification\HasExtension; use Flyfinder\Specification\InPath; $isHidden = new IsHidden(); $hasExtension = new HasExtension(['txt']); $inPath = new InPath(new Path('mydir')); ``` ### Combining specifications [](#combining-specifications) You can search on more criteria by combining the specifications. Specifications can be chained as follows: `$isHidden->andSpecification($hasExtension)` will find all files and directories that are hidden AND have the given extension. `$isHidden->orSpecification($hasExtension)` will find all files and directories that are hidden OR have the given extension. `$isHidden->notSpecification` will find all files and directories that are NOT hidden. You can also make longer chains like this: `$specification = $inPath->andSpecification($hasExtension)->andSpecification($isHidden->notSpecification());` This will find all files in the given path, that have the given extension and are not hidden. ### Health Score 62 — FairBetter than 99% of packages Maintenance70 Regular maintenance activity Popularity48 Moderate usage in the ecosystem Community28 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity87 Battle-tested with a long release history Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
