PHP: Using glob() to list images

    

  1. //path to directory to scan.
    2. 

  2.  $directory = "assets/images/thumbs/small/";

    3. 

  3. //get all image files with a .jpg extension.
    4. 

  4.  $images = glob("" . $directory . "*.jpg");

    5. 

  5.  $imgs = '';

    6. 

  6. // create array
    7. 

  7.  foreach($images as $image){ $imgs[] = "$image"; }

    8. 

  8. // sort by date if you like
    9. 

  9. //usort($imgs, create_function('$a,$b', 'return filemtime($a) - filemtime($b);'));
    10. 

  10. //sort by name
    11. 

  11. //usort($imgs, create_function('$a,$b', 'return strcmp($b, $a);'));
    12. 

  12. //display images
    13. 

  13.  foreach ($imgs as $img) {

    14. 

  14.    echo " ";

    15. 

  15.  }

    16.

I am a full-stack developer. I love programming,  design and know my way around server architecture as well.  I would never feel complete, with one of these missing. I have a broad range of interests, that’s why I constantly dive into new technologies and expand my knowledge where ever required. Technologies are evolving fast and I enjoy using the latest. Apart from that, I am a peace loving guy who tries to have people around him that think the same.  I truly believe in the principle: “If you help someone, someone will help you, when you need it."
