Question

I am attempting to generate a list of SQL commands that i will later insert. The only part at this time I seem to be stuck on is looping the file name. I need my scandir to loop through the nofilter directory and change $image each time a new line or sql query is given. I have the code and output below. Essentially no sql query should have the same $image being echo'd into it

for ($i=1351314000; $i<=1351400400; $i+= 14400) {
    $images = scandir("/home/fb/public_html/post/uploads/nofilter/");
    foreach($images as $image) {

    }

//copy file over from no filter
$orig = "/home/fb/public_html/post/uploads/nofilter/".$image."";
$dest =   "/home/fb/public_html/post/uploads/".$image."";
//copy($orig, $dest);


//output
  echo "The number is " . $i . "<br />";
echo $image;
echo "<br>";
echo "<br>";
echo "<br>";

echo "

INSERT INTO `fb_fb`.`postcron_schedule` (
`id` ,
`status_message` ,
`link` ,
`photo_url` ,
`status_name` ,
`status_caption` ,
`status_description` ,
`uid` ,
`page_id` ,
`access_token` ,
`post_to` ,
`status_type` ,
`schedule_type` ,
`is_process` ,
`process_time` ,
`process_at` ,
`display_time` ,
`created_by`
)
VALUES (
NULL , '', '', '/home/fb/public_html/post/includes/../uploads/". $image ."', NULL , NULL , NULL , '0', '135031429962113', 'AAAGLZAMh7YSUBALRMCW60Rdol1kD80ZBNymqkgyQfBXDour2KsvVWKFcnZB9cU9OSLRMQjnEuKHZCTNoTZC4jf9GFtMU11BTD8JZAUFl0EVgZDZD', 'page', 'photo', 'schedule', '0', '". $i ."', NULL , '". $i ."', '100000103637895'
);
";

echo "<br>";
echo "<br>";

 }

The output looks like this

The number is 1351314000 8120925654_4041b7c50f_o.jpg

Solution

Based on your comment, why not do it like this instead?

<php
$time = time();
$images = scandir("/home/fb/public_html/post/uploads/nofilter/");
foreach($images as $image) {
    if ($image == '.' || $image == '..') {
        continue;
    }

    $time += 14400; //add 4 hours every interval

    //copy file over from no filter
    $orig = "/home/fb/public_html/post/uploads/nofilter/".$image."";
    $dest =   "/home/fb/public_html/post/uploads/".$image."";
    //copy($orig, $dest);


    //output
      echo "The number is " . $time . "<br />";
    echo $image;
    echo "<br>";
    echo "<br>";
    echo "<br>";

    echo "

    INSERT INTO `fb_fb`.`postcron_schedule` (
    `id` ,
    `status_message` ,
    `link` ,
    `photo_url` ,
    `status_name` ,
    `status_caption` ,
    `status_description` ,
    `uid` ,
    `page_id` ,
    `access_token` ,
    `post_to` ,
    `status_type` ,
    `schedule_type` ,
    `is_process` ,
    `process_time` ,
    `process_at` ,
    `display_time` ,
    `created_by`
    )
    VALUES (
    NULL , '', '', '/home/fb/public_html/post/includes/../uploads/". $image ."', NULL , NULL , NULL , '0', '135031429962113', 'AAAGLZAMh7YSUBALRMCW60Rdol1kD80ZBNymqkgyQfBXDour2KsvVWKFcnZB9cU9OSLRMQjnEuKHZCTNoTZC4jf9GFtMU11BTD8JZAUFl0EVgZDZD', 'page', 'photo', 'schedule', '0', '". $time ."', NULL , '". $time ."', '100000103637895'
    );
    ";

 }

OTHER TIPS

You have mixed up your braces:

// does nothing
for( $images as $image ) {

}

I started formatting your code and once it was formatted, you could see that one of your loops doesn't do anything. If you format code then it's easier to see these sorts of things.

Your outer loop uses the $images variable and then there's an inner loop (see above) that does nothing but defines the $image variable and then you're getting unexpected results because you're then using this variable.
