File::DirList(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation File::DirList(3pm) NAME File::DirList - provide a sorted list of directory content Version 0.04 SYNOPSIS use File::DirList; # my @list = File::DirList::list('.', 'dn', 1, 0); DESCRIPTION This module is used to get a list of directory content. It is a simple wrapper around DirHandle and sort() The module has two methods: "list($dirName, $sortMode, $noLinks, $hideDotFiles, $showSelf)" Produces a list, accepting 5 parameters: $dirName Name of the directory to list $sortMode Describes how list should be sorted. This is a string containing the following symbols, with uppercase representing the reverse sort: "d" or "D" "Directory" sort. 'd' means all the directories will precede files, 'D' means reverse. "n" or "N" Sort by file (or subdirectory) name. "i" or "I" Same as 'n' but case insensitive. "m" or "M" Sort by modification time. "c" or "C" Sort by creation time. "a" or "A" Sort by access time. "s" or "S" Sort by size. $sortMode is interpreted from left to right. If the first comparison produces an equal result next one is used. For example, string "'din'" produces a list with all the directories preceding files, directories and files are sorted by name case insensitively, with lowercase letters preceding upper case. $noLinks If "true" symbolic links will not be examined. Set it on platforms without symlink support. $hideDotFiles If "true" 'dot' files will not be reported. $showSelf If "true" '.' directory entry will be reported. Returned value is an array reference, sorted as described by $sortMode. Array elements are array references representing an item. The individual item's array contains 17 elements: "[0..12]" Result of stat() for this item. For valid symbolic links, the stat of the target item is returned. "[13]" Name of the item. "[14]" Is item a directory? Contains 0 for non-directory items, 1 for directories, 2 for '..', 3 for '.'. Used by "d or D" sorting. "[15]" Is item a link? 0 for non-links, 1 for valid links, "-1" for invalid links. "[16]" Link target. "undef" for non-links, target path for links. [15] and [16] are set to non-link if $examineLinks is "false". "sortList($list, $sortMode)" Used to re-sort a list produced by "list()" Parameters are $lis Reference to a list produced by "list()" $sortMode Sorting rules. Return value is similar to "list()" EXPORT None by default SEE ALSO DirHandle, stat, lstat, sort AUTHOR Daniel Podolsky, <tpaba AT cpan.org> COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE Copyright (C) 2006 by Daniel Podolsky, <tpaba AT cpan.org> This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself, either Perl version 5.8.4 or, at your option, any later version of Perl 5 you may have available. perl v5.30.3 2020-09-22 File::DirList(3pm)
