I am new to Freebsd/nginx, so similar QAs did not help me ;( I was running a code:
$ext = pathinfo ($_FILES['rawexcel']['name'][$i], PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
//get extension of file, run different converters depending on extension
if ($ext == 'xlsx' ) { exec("/usr/local/bin/cnvt /var/tmp/xls/result.xlsx /var/tmp/result.csv "); }
else
if ($ext == 'xls' ) { exec("/usr/local/bin/xls2csv -x /var/tmp/xls/result.xls* -b WINDOWS-1251 -c /var/tmp/result.csv -a UTF-8"); }
/var/tmp/xls/
when my file names were constant(result.xls which then converted to result.csv) & I was processing files one by one; cnvt and xls2csv are converters. Now I have ajax upload and want to perform exec command for all files in a folder, keeping original file name. I tried to run same code with result.xls replaced with *(star) but it did not work.
what I have:
folder tmp/xls with excel files
what I want:
convert all excel files inna folder to .csv keeping their original names. Will appreciate any help.
UPDATE: the best way to execute a command for all files in directory to create/edit a script to make that, operating on all files in directory much easier in bash itself. Good luck.
