EzFile - Easy and Simple Filemanager

EzFile is a free, nonprofit PHP library designed to simplify file and directory manipulation in web development. With a focus on ease of use, it provides efficient tools for common tasks like creating, renaming, moving, copying, deleting, uploading, downloading and manipulating files and folders. The EzFile accelerates web development, making it easier to work with files and directories and enhancing productivity.

Requirements

Tool	Version	Requirement
PHP	7.0 or Higher	Required

Installation

Install EzFile using Composer:

composer require amplie-solucoes/ezfile

Note

If you need to work with handling files that will be large in size, make sure to change the following parameters in your php.ini file:

• memory_limit
• upload_max_filesize
• post_max_size

How to Use

The objective of EzFile is to be a simple and easily accessible library, therefore, all the code was designed to be executed statically, facilitating the work and manipulation of the code.

Additionally, it's crucial to note that each of the functions listed below includes a parameter named "force." This parameter serves the purpose of enabling the manipulation of files located beyond the designated main path. Please refer to the examples provided for clarity:

---

//Validate if a Directory or File exists
EzFile::exists('your_path');

//Using 'force' paramn to validate outsite main path
EzFile::exists('your_path', true);

/*
====== [ Function Return ] ===== 
EXISTS: true
NOT EXISTS: false
*/

---

Create Function

//Create a Directory or File
EzFile::create('your_path');

EzFile::write('your_file_path', 'any_content_you_want', false);

//Using 'force' paramn to write in a file outsite main path
EzFile::write('your_file_path', 'any_content_you_want', false, true);

Example of Code

See below a simple example of how to work with some functions

//Import the lib
use AmplieSolucoes\EzFile\EzFile;

//Example Creating a file/Directory
$ezFile = EzFile::create('your_path');
if(isset($ezFile['error'])){
    // Ops, errors found... put your code logic here with message $ezFile['message']
} else {
    // It Worked
}

//Example renaming a file/Directory
$ezFile = EzFile::rename('current_path', 'renamed_path');
if(isset($ezFile['error'])){
    // Ops, errors found... put your code logic here with message $ezFile['message']
} else {
    // It Worked
}

//Example getting the pathinfo from file/Directory
$ezFile = EzFile::pathInfo('your_path');
if(isset($ezFile['error'])){
    // Ops, errors found... put your code logic here with message $ezFile['message']
} else {
    // It Worked, get all data from the array $ezFile
}

//Example uploading file(s)/Directory(ies)
$ezFile = EzFile::upload('upload_path', $your_files_in_array);
if(isset($ezFile['error'])){
    // Ops, errors found... put your code logic here with message $ezFile['message']
} else {
    // It Worked, get all data from the array $ezFile
}

//Example writing file(s)
$ezFile = EzFile::write('file_path_name_with_extension', 'any_content');
if(isset($ezFile['error'])){
    // Ops, errors found... put your code logic here with message $ezFile['message']
} else {
    // It Worked
}

* Important *

If "path" paramn send has errors, all the functions above will return an array:

['error' => true, 'message' => 'error_message']
