Path class help you easy manipulate to any path (unix-style, windows-style, uri path), going up and down, extract last path item, detect project root and more. This lib not work with file system. Its just help you manipulate path string.

### Installation:

Path manipulation
-----------------

[](#path-manipulation)

### Unix-style path:

[](#unix-style-path)

```
# Create path object with some path and define path separator.
# If separator not defined, it will be detected from passed path string
$path = new \XAKEPEHOK\Path\Path('/any/path/here');

# /any/path
echo $path->up();

# /any/path/here/down_1/down_2
echo $path->down('down_1')->down('down_2');

# Ending or double slashes will be removed
# /any/path/here/down_1/down_2
echo $path->down('/down_1/')->down('/down_2/');

# Empty down will be ignored
# /any/path/here
echo $path->down('');

# /any/path/here/down_1/down_2
echo $path->down('down_1/down_2');

# Backslash will be replaced by slash, because path already contain slash
# /any/path/here/down_1/down_2
echo $path->down('down_1\down_2');

$subPath = new \XAKEPEHOK\Path\Path('dir_1/dir_2')

# /any/path/here/dir_1/dir_2
echo $path->down($subPath);

# /any/path/down_1/dir_1/dir_2
echo $path->up()->down('down_1/down_2')->up()->down($subPath);
```

### Windows-style path:

[](#windows-style-path)

```
$path = new \XAKEPEHOK\Path\Path('C:\\Windows');

# C:\
echo $path->up();

# C:\Windows\System32\drivers
echo $path->down('System32')->down('drivers');

# Ending or double backslashes will be removed
# C:\Windows\System32\drivers
echo $path->down('\\System32\\')->down('\\drivers\\');

# C:\Windows\System32\drivers
echo $path->down('System32\drivers');

# Slash will be replaced by backslash, because path already contain backslash
# C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
echo $path->down('System32/drivers\etc');

$subPath = new \XAKEPEHOK\Path\Path('Adobe/Photoshop')

# C:\Windows\System32\drivers
echo $path->down($subPath);

# C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop
echo $path->up()->down('Program Files\\Microsoft')->up()->down($subPath);
```

### Uri path (works like unix-style path):

[](#uri-path-works-like-unix-style-path)

```
$path = new \XAKEPEHOK\Path\Path('https://example.com/path');

# https://example.com
echo $path->up();

# https://example.com/path/dir_1/dir_2
echo $path->down('dir_1')->down('dir_2');

# https://example.com/path/down_1/down_2
echo $path->down('down_1/down_2');

# Backslash will be replaced by slash, because path already contain slash
# https://example.com/path/down_1/down_2
echo $path->down('down_1\down_2');

$subPath = new \XAKEPEHOK\Path\Path('dir_1/dir_2')
```

### End of path

[](#end-of-path)

```
$path = new \XAKEPEHOK\Path\Path('/etc/nginx/nginx.conf');

# Return FileName object
$filename = $path->end();

# nginx
echo $filename->getName(false); //without extension

# nginx.conf
echo $filename->getName(true); //with extension

# conf
echo $filename->getExtension(); //extension

# true
echo $filename->hasExtension(); //bool true if file has extension
```

Detect project root path
------------------------

[](#detect-project-root-path)

```
# Return you project root path (dir that contain composer's vendor dir).
# Its detected by reflection of \Composer\Autoload\ClassLoader.php placement
$path = \XAKEPEHOK\Path\Path::root();
```
