sort files and folders in filetree

in Community Support » Installation and Setup • 8 months ago

I ran into a problem getting the folders to appear together on top sorted by name following by all 'regular files' also sorted by name right after them, so:

you'll have to include a small jquery plugin in 'filemanager/index.html' called: tinysort
then in 'filemanager.js' on line 816 (see line here: https://github.com/simogeo/Filemanager/blob/master/scripts/filemanager.js#L816)
just after:

callback(result);

add this:

$("ul.jqueryFileTree").tsort("li.directory",{order:"asc"});
$("ul.jqueryFileTree li").not(".directory").tsort("a",{order:"asc"});

now,
I'm sure its not the best way to achieve this effect so, if someone has a better way please share it!

R: sort files and folders in filetree

8 months ago

I have modified the getfolder() method in connectors/php/filemanager.class.php.
Now files and folders are always sorted by name, but folders appear before files in filetree.

Here the code:

public function getfolder() {
$array = array();
$filesDir = array();
$folders = array();
$files = array();
$current_path = $this->doc_root . rawurldecode($this->get['path']);
if(!is_dir($current_path)) {
$this->error(sprintf($this->lang('DIRECTORY_NOT_EXIST'),$this->get['path']));
}
if(!$handle = opendir($current_path)) {
$this->error(sprintf($this->lang('UNABLE_TO_OPEN_DIRECTORY'),$this->get['path']));
} else {
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
if($file != "." && $file != "..") {
if(is_dir($current_path . $file)) {
array_push($folders, $file);
} else {
array_push($files, $file);
}
}
}
closedir($handle);
sort($folders); // sorting by names
sort($files); // sorting by names
$filesDir = array_merge($folders, $files);
// Sort files by modified time, latest to earliest
// Use SORT_ASC in place of SORT_DESC for earliest to latest
// array_multisort(
// array_map( 'filemtime', $filesDir ),
// SORT_NUMERIC,
// SORT_DESC,
// $filesDir
// );
foreach($filesDir as $file) {
if(is_dir($current_path . $file)) {
if(!in_array($file, $this->config['unallowed_dirs'])) {
$array[$this->get['path'] . $file .'/'] = array(
'Path'=> $this->get['path'] . $file .'/',
'Filename'=>$file,
'File Type'=>'dir',
'Preview'=> $this->config['icons']['path'] . $this->config['icons']['directory'],
'Properties'=>array(
'Date Created'=>null,
'Date Modified'=>null,
'Height'=>null,
'Width'=>null,
'Size'=>null
),
'Error'=>"",
'Code'=>0
);
}
} else if (!in_array($file, $this->config['unallowed_files'])) {
$this->item = array();
$this->item['properties'] = $this->properties;
$this->get_file_info($this->get['path'] . $file);
if(!isset($this->params['type']) || (isset($this->params['type']) && strtolower($this->params['type'])=='images' && in_array(strtolower($this->item['filetype']),$this->config['images']))) {
if($this->config['upload']['imagesonly']== false || ($this->config['upload']['imagesonly']== true && in_array(strtolower($this->item['filetype']),$this->config['images']))) {
$array[$this->get['path'] . $file] = array(
'Path'=>$this->get['path'] . $file,
'Filename'=>$this->item['filename'],
'File Type'=>$this->item['filetype'],
'Preview'=>$this->item['preview'],
'Properties'=>$this->item['properties'],
'Error'=>"",
'Code'=>0
);
}
}
}
}
}
return $array;
}
