PharData::buildFromDirectory — Construct a tar/zip archive from the files within a directory.

Description

array Phar::buildFromDirectory ( string $base_dir [, string $regex ] )

Populate a tar/zip archive from directory contents. The optional second parameter is a regular expression (pcre) that is used to exclude files. Any filename that matches the regular expression will be included, all others will be excluded. For more fine-grained control, use PharData::buildFromIterator().

Parameters

base_dir: The full or relative path to the directory that contains all files to add to the archive.
regex: An optional pcre regular expression that is used to filter the list of files. Only file paths matching the regular expression will be included in the archive.

Return Values

Phar::buildFromDirectory() returns an associative array mapping internal path of file to the full path of the file on the filesystem.

Errors/Exceptions

This method throws BadMethodCallException when unable to instantiate the internal directory iterators, or a PharException if there were errors saving the phar archive.
