Find the physical path of file
Posted on 2004-08-04
Hi
I've played around with code like this:
<?php
$conn_id = ftp_connect("xxx.com");
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, "user", "passw");
if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) {
echo "Ftp connection has failed!";
die;
} else {
echo "Connected";
}
$contents = ftp_nlist($conn_id, ".");
echo implode($contents,"/");
ftp_quit($conn_id);
?>
This code shows the files in a ftp-directory but I would also like to show the physical path to the individual files. Is this possible? Points to those who integrate the necessary code in the above.
Thanx,
Soren

I don't understand exactly what you want but I guess it is something like this (sorry, I can't test the script right now)
<?php
$conn_id = ftp_connect("xxx.com");
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, "user", "passw");
if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) {
echo "Ftp connection has failed!";
die;
} else {
echo "Connected";
}
$currentdir = ftp_pwd();
$contents = ftp_nlist($conn_id, ".");
$all = implode($contents,":");
$all = str_replace(":",":$current
echo ($all);
ftp_quit($conn_id);
?>
<?php
$conn_id = ftp_connect("xxx.com");
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, "user", "passw");
if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) {
echo "Ftp connection has failed!";
die;
} else {
echo "Connected";
}
$currentdir = ftp_pwd();
$contents = ftp_nlist($conn_id, ".");
$all = implode($contents,":");
$all = str_replace(":",":$current
echo ($all);
ftp_quit($conn_id);
?>
I think this only returns the directory name. I would like it to return the physical path to the individual files. Like the asp-function Server.MapPath.
If the ftp user is set up to log in to the root directory on the server then the ftp_pwd() will return the entire phsyical directory of the file and Jaime's code should work.
I've probably used the wrong terms, but by physical path I mean for example "d:\inetpub\wwwroot\index.
Correct if your ftp user starts in wwwroot, ftp_pwd() will not return the whole path, but if you set the ftp login to start in d:\ it will return the whole path.
Ok - so if I start in wwwroot is there a way to get the whole physical path anyway (the whole d:\inetpub\wwwroot)?
If not, I guess I would have to upload a asp-script to the server (this only targets iis-servers) and then afterwards read the script and see what it returns.

If the php command ftp_raw is working on the server you could try something like
ftp_raw ($conn_id,'pwd')
But I have not tested this because the function does not work with my version of php.

ftp_raw ($conn_id,'pwd')

This piece of code return the correct top folder list og files and folders for both linux- and windows server. I don't know if this can help:
<?php
$conn_id = ftp_connect("ftp.xxx.com");
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, "yyy", "zzz");
if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) {
echo "Ftp connection has failed!";
die;
} else {
echo "Connected";
}
$contents = ftp_nlist($conn_id, ".");
echo implode($contents,"/");
ftp_quit($conn_id);
?>

die;
} else {
echo "Connected";
}
$contents = ftp_nlist($conn_id, ".");
echo implode($contents,"/");
ftp_quit($conn_id);
?>
