Getting a list of files in a directory with a glob
You can achieve this pretty easily with the help of NSPredicate, like so:
NSString *bundleRoot = [[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath];
NSFileManager *fm = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
NSArray *dirContents = [fm contentsOfDirectoryAtPath:bundleRoot error:nil];
NSPredicate *fltr = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"self ENDSWITH '.jpg'"];
NSArray *onlyJPGs = [dirContents filteredArrayUsingPredicate:fltr];
If you need to do it with NSURL instead it looks like this:
NSURL *bundleRoot = [[NSBundle mainBundle] bundleURL];
NSArray * dirContents =
[fm contentsOfDirectoryAtURL:bundleRoot
includingPropertiesForKeys:@[]
options:NSDirectoryEnumerationSkipsHiddenFiles
error:nil];
NSPredicate * fltr = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"pathExtension='jpg'"];
NSArray * onlyJPGs = [dirContents filteredArrayUsingPredicate:fltr];
This works quite nicely for IOS
, but should also work for cocoa
.
NSString *bundleRoot = [[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath];
NSFileManager *manager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
NSDirectoryEnumerator *direnum = [manager enumeratorAtPath:bundleRoot];
NSString *filename;
while ((filename = [direnum nextObject] )) {
//change the suffix to what you are looking for
if ([filename hasSuffix:@".data"]) {
// Do work here
NSLog(@"Files in resource folder: %@", filename);
}
}
