SabreDAV Client - using propfind to list properties

[ahm...@gmail.com]

Hi evert,

I am testing SabreDAV client to list a SabreDAV server folder content, it return an array as next:

################################

Array ( [/dav/server.php/] => Array ( ) [/dav/server.php/file.txt] => Array ( [{DAV:}getcontentlength] => 16 ) [/dav/server.php/myfiles/] => Array ( ) [/dav/server.php/txtper.txt] => Array ( [{DAV:}getcontentlength] => 293 ) [/dav/server.php/webdav.rtf] => Array ( [{DAV:}getcontentlength] => 102822 ) )

################################

client.php

######################

<?php

include 'lib/Sabre/autoload.php';

$settings = array(

    'baseUri' => 'http://localhost/dav/server.php/',

'userName' => '****',

    'password' => '********',

);

$client = new Sabre\DAV\Client($settings);

// Will do a GET request on the base uri

// $response = $client->request('GET'); 

// $response = $client->request('HEAD', 'stuff');

//$response = $client->request('PUT', 'file.txt', "New contents !!!");

//$response = $client->request('DELETE', 'file.txt', null, array('If-Match' => '"12345765"')); 

//var_dump($response); 

$files = $client->propfind('/dav/server.php/', array( '{DAV:}getcontentlength' ), 1); 

print_r($files);

?>

######################

I want to get the value of each propertie for each node and display them on a table as following

Hi Miska,

Are you asking how to use arrays in PHP?
If so:

Read the PHP manual:

http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php
http://php.net/manual/en/control-structures.foreach.php

Having a basic knowledge of how PHP works is pretty much required when working with sabredav.

So do you want to do something like this?

$result = $client->propfind('/dav/server.php/myfiles', array(
'{DAV:}getcontentlength',
'{DAV:}getlastmodified',
'{DAV:}resourcetype'
));

?

Yea.. the propfind method has 3 arguments:

1. The url you want to know properties of
2. The list of properties you want to know
3. The depth. Use 0 for just the $url argument, use 1 if you also want to know what's in the collection.

ResourceType is an object, so you can't just echo it.. Look up that class to see what the object can and cannot do.

Both are these are optional to implement on the server, so you should not rely on the fact that those exist.

Hi,

I think i am going to make it working:

###############################

$res = $v['{DAV:}resourcetype']->getValue();

foreach ($res as $re ) {

if($re == '{DAV:}collection') 

print_r("<td>Folder</td>"); 

else

print_r("<td>File</td>"); 

}

###############################

in the result, i have "Folder" for folders elements but nothing for files,

i chearched in the documentation but all i found is getValue method that returned me an array,

can you help me to do this by appropriated way? 

Regards

The easiest is to use

->is('{DAV:}collection')

this will return true or false.
