Examples

Example #1 Listing files from tar archives

<?php
class streamWrapper {
protected
$fp;

public function
dir_opendir($path, $options) {
$url = parse_url($path);

$path = $url["host"] . $url["path"];

if (!
is_readable($path)) {
trigger_error("$path isn't readable for me", E_USER_NOTICE);
return
false;
}
if (!
is_file($path)) {
trigger_error("$path isn't a file", E_USER_NOTICE);
return
false;
}

$this->fp = fopen($path, "rb");
return
true;
}

public function
dir_readdir() {
// Extract the header for this entry
$header = fread($this->fp, 512);
$data = unpack("a100filename/a8mode/a8uid/a8gid/a12size/a12mtime/a8checksum/a1filetype/a100link/a100linkedfile", $header);

// Trim the filename and filesize
$filename = trim($data["filename"]);

// No filename? We are the end of the archive
if (!$filename) {
return
false;
}

$octal_bytes = trim($data["size"]);
// Filesize is defined in octects
$bytes = octdec($octal_bytes);

// tar rounds up filesizes up to multiple of 512 bytes (zero filled)
$rest = $bytes % 512;
if (
$rest > 0) {
$bytes += 512 - $rest;
}

// Seek over the file
fseek($this->fp, $bytes, SEEK_CUR);

return
$filename;
}

public function
dir_closedir() {
return
fclose($this->fp);
}

public function
dir_rewinddir() {
return
fseek($this->fp, 0, SEEK_SET);
}
}

stream_wrapper_register("tar", "streamWrapper");
$handle = opendir("tar://example.tar");
while (
false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
var_dump($file);
}

echo
"Rewinding..\n";
rewind($handle);
var_dump(readdir($handle));

closedir($handle);
?>
