Manipulating files and directories..

ajd335

Hey all..I am trying to make as script , which can import one directory called IP , take all the text files one by one from that directory , and then can give me (using pregmatch or something ) Hostname from each file...
Code is below..

<?php
 $dirname = "/home/ajd/IP";
if($handle = opendir($dirname))
{ 
while(false !== ($filename = readdir($handle))){
echo $filename;
if($handle1)
        {
while(!feof($handle1))
        {
        $lines = fgets($handle1);


    $var = preg_match('/Host Name(.*)/',$lines,$matches);

    print_r($matches);
    }
    }
fclose($handle1);
} closedir($handle);
} 
?>

The above code gives me all the file names in the directory in which I am writing script (i.e home/ajd/data/ip.php
It gives me list of files and directories in data directory...
Please help out..
Thanks

It's supposed to give you a list of files. Do you mean it only gives you the file names?

It appears that some of your code is missing. You do not open a file pointer. Shouldn't your code look closer to this?

<?php
$dirname = "/home/ajd/IP";
if($handle = opendir($dirname))
{ 
	while(false !== ($filename = readdir($handle))){
		if (is_readable($filename)) {			
			if ($handle1 = fopen($filename, "r") ) {
				while(!feof($handle1)) {
					$lines = fgets($handle1);
					$var = preg_match('/Host Name(.*)/',$lines,$matches);			
					print_r($matches);
				}
				fclose($handle1);
			}
		}		
	}
	closedir($handle);
} 
?>

Thanks Bretticus ,
Bretticus , when I tried to run the code , it gives me the same , name of all the files of home/ajd/data/ and my script is in home/ajd/data/ip.php
And ya the files from which I want to fetch the Host name , contains the result of IPconfig/all ... So , why it's giving like that ?
Thanks,

Where it printed "array()" 10 times means that you have 10 files in that directory but you never matched anything from your preg_match().

Just for fun, replace print_r($matches) with var_dump($lines) and tell me what you get? Not sure if that gives you line by line or the whole file. Also, you may need a 'g' pattern modifier to turn on global pattern searching.

Hi Bretticus ,
It was a small mistake why the answer was not showing up...
I have the below code

<?php
 $dirname = "/home/ajd/ip";
if($handle = opendir($dirname))
{
    while(false !== ($filename = readdir($handle))){
        if (is_readable($filename)) {
  if ($handle1 = fopen($filename, "r") ) {
                while(!feof($handle1)) {
                    $lines = fgets($handle1);
if(preg_match('/ Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . :(.*)$/',$lines,$matches))
 {
       print_r($matches[1]);
        echo ",";
 }


if(preg_match('/IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.(.*)$/',$lines,$matches))
{  $ad = "10.";
 print_r($ad.$matches[1]); 
}
if(preg_match('/Physical Address. . . . . . . . . :(.*)$/',$lines,$matches))
 {
print_r($matches[1]);
echo ",";

}
}                fclose($handle1);
            } } } 

closedir($handle);
}
?>

and the result I get is file1hosname,file1physicaladd,file1'sIp,file2'shostname.........
Now actually , I want to store the result into one text file or execel file.(or database)...I need a way in which i can store the value of (e.g)
array1[0] = file1's hostname
array1[1]= file2's hostname
....
array2[0] = file1's IP
array2[1]= file2's Ip ....

how can i do so...?
Thanks
