adachsoft/filesystem

AdachSoft FileSystem Library

A robust PHP filesystem abstraction library providing both physical and in-memory filesystem implementations with security features and comprehensive error handling.

🚀 Features

• Dual filesystem implementations: Physical filesystem and in-memory filesystem
• Security-first design: Path traversal protection and input validation
• Immutable models: Path, FileInfo, and FileSearchCriteria classes
• Comprehensive error handling: Custom exception hierarchy
• Collection support: PathCollection integration with AdachSoft Collection
• File search capabilities: Advanced file filtering with criteria
• Cross-platform compatibility: Unix and Windows path normalization
• PSR-4 autoloading: Modern PHP standards

📦 Installation

Method 1: Composer Configuration via CLI (Recommended)

Add the private repository and install:

# Add the filesystem repository
composer config repositories.adachsoft/filesystem vcs https://gitlab.com/a.adach/filesystem.git

# Add the collections dependency repository
composer config repositories.adachsoft/collection vcs https://gitlab.com/a.adach/collections.git

# Install the package
composer require adachsoft/filesystem

Method 2: Manual composer.json Configuration

Add the repositories to your composer.json:

{
    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "https://gitlab.com/a.adach/filesystem.git"
        },
        {
            "type": "vcs", 
            "url": "https://gitlab.com/a.adach/collections.git"
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "adachsoft/filesystem": "^1.0"
    }
}

Then run:

composer install

Method 3: One-liner Command

Execute all commands at once:

composer config repositories.adachsoft/filesystem vcs https://gitlab.com/a.adach/filesystem.git && composer config repositories.adachsoft/collection vcs https://gitlab.com/a.adach/collections.git && composer require adachsoft/filesystem

🎯 Quick Start

Physical FileSystem

<?php

use AdachSoft\FileSystem\PhysicalFileSystem;
use AdachSoft\FileSystem\Model\Path;

// Create filesystem instance with base directory
$fs = new PhysicalFileSystem('/var/www/project');

// Write a file
$fs->writeFile(new Path('config/app.yml'), 'database: mysql');

// Read a file
$content = $fs->readFile(new Path('config/app.yml'));

// Check if file exists
if ($fs->fileExists(new Path('config/app.yml'))) {
    echo "File exists!";
}

// Create directory
$fs->createDirectory(new Path('uploads/images'));

// List directory contents
$contents = $fs->listContents(new Path('uploads'));
foreach ($contents as $path) {
    echo $path->toString() . "\n";
}

In-Memory FileSystem

<?php

use AdachSoft\FileSystem\InMemoryFileSystem;
use AdachSoft\FileSystem\Model\Path;

// Create in-memory filesystem
$fs = new InMemoryFileSystem();

// All operations work the same as PhysicalFileSystem
$fs->writeFile(new Path('test.txt'), 'Hello World');
$fs->createDirectory(new Path('docs'));

// Reset filesystem (clear all data)
$fs->reset();

Working with Paths

<?php

use AdachSoft\FileSystem\Model\Path;

// Create path objects
$path = new Path('config/database.yml');

// Get path components
$basename = $path->getBasename(); // 'database.yml'
$parent = $path->getParent();     // Path('config')

// Join paths
$newPath = $path->getParent()->join('cache.yml'); // Path('config/cache.yml')

// String representation
echo $path->toString(); // 'config/database.yml'

File Search with Criteria

<?php

use AdachSoft\FileSystem\PhysicalFileSystem;
use AdachSoft\FileSystem\Model\Path;
use AdachSoft\FileSystem\Model\FileSearchCriteria;

$fs = new PhysicalFileSystem('/var/www/project');

// Create search criteria
$criteria = new FileSearchCriteria(
    directory: new Path('src'),
    filename: '*.php',
    extension: 'php',
    recursive: true
);

// Find all PHP files
$phpFiles = $fs->findFiles($criteria);

// Find files with specific pattern
$criteria = FileSearchCriteria::create(new Path('tests'))
    ->withFilename('Test.php')
    ->withExtension('php')
    ->withRecursive(false);

$testFiles = $fs->findFiles($criteria);

Working with File Information

<?php

use AdachSoft\FileSystem\PhysicalFileSystem;
use AdachSoft\FileSystem\Model\Path;

$fs = new PhysicalFileSystem('/var/www/project');

// Get file information
$fileInfo = $fs->getFileInfo(new Path('composer.json'));

echo "Path: " . $fileInfo->getPath()->toString() . "\n";
echo "Size: " . $fileInfo->getSize() . " bytes\n";
echo "Modified: " . $fileInfo->getLastModified()->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n";
echo "Is file: " . ($fileInfo->isFile() ? 'Yes' : 'No') . "\n";
echo "Is directory: " . ($fileInfo->isDirectory() ? 'Yes' : 'No') . "\n";

// Get timestamps and sizes directly
$timestamp = $fs->getLastModifiedTime(new Path('composer.json'));
$fileSize = $fs->getFileSize(new Path('composer.json'));

Path Collections

<?php

use AdachSoft\FileSystem\Model\PathCollection;
use AdachSoft\FileSystem\Model\Path;

// Create collection of paths
$paths = new PathCollection([
    new Path('src/FileSystem.php'),
    new Path('src/Model/Path.php'),
    new Path('tests/FileSystemTest.php')
]);

// Iterate over collection
foreach ($paths as $path) {
    echo $path->toString() . "\n";
}
