I really need some help with this... i just cant make it work.
For now i have this piece of code and it's working fine. What it does is... retuns all files within a directory according to date in their name.
<?php
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
$imagesDir = '';
$images = glob($imagesDir . '*.{jpg,jpeg,png,gif}', GLOB_BRACE);
$filteredImages = [];
foreach($images as $image) {
$current_date = date("Ymd");
$file_date = substr($image, 0, 8);
if (strcmp($current_date, $file_date)>=0)
$filteredImages[] = $image;
}
echo json_encode($filteredImages, JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE);
?>
But now i need to filter those files (probably before this code is even executed). acording to the string in their name.
files are named in the following manner:
yyyymmdd_xxxxxxx-xxxxxx~yyyymmdd.123456789.jpg
yyyymmdd_xxxxxxx-xxxxxx~yyyymmdd.9.jpg
yyyymmdd_xxxxxxx-xxxxxx~yyyymmdd.458.jpg
i need to filter out only ones that have certain number within that string of numbers at the end (between "."
and ".jpg"
) eg. number 9
$number = 9
i was trying with this piece of code to seperate only that last part of name:
<?php
function getBetween($jpgname,$start,$end){
$r = explode($start, $jpgname);
if (isset($r[1])){
$r = explode($end, $r[1]);
return $r[0];
}
return '';
}
$jpgname = "yyyymmdd_xxxxxxx-xxxxxx~yyyymmdd.12789.jpg";
$start = ".";
$end = ".jpg";
$output = getBetween($jpgname,$start,$end);
echo $output;
?>
and i guess i would need STRIPOS within all of this... but im lost now... :(
