How to import subfolders and files into array using Google Drive

Adem · November 30, 2023, 4:08pm

Hello,

With the code below, I list the subfolders and files in the source folder with echo. However, I can’t get this list out as an array. What am I doing wrong? Can you help me?

<?php 
$copy_from_id = '1ayLi94BVtYHvzmbBXmmW3siQrwiJOotc';

function listFiles($service, $folderId, $path = ''): array
{
        $results = $service->files->listFiles([
            'orderBy' => "name",
            'q' => "'$folderId' in parents",
        ]);
    $list_array = [];
    foreach ($results->getFiles() as $file) {

        $filePath = $path . '/' . $file->getName();
        echo $filePath."<br />";

        $list_array[$file->getId()] = $filePath;
        
        if ($file->mimeType == 'application/vnd.google-apps.folder') {

            listFiles($service, $file->getId(), $filePath);

        }
        
    }
    return $list_array;
}

$list_array = listFiles($service, $copy_from_id);

echo '<pre>' . print_r($list_array, true) . '</pre>';
?>

list with echo

/aaaaaaaa
/aaaaaaaa.zip
/bbbbbbb
/bbbbbbb.zip
/zaman
/zaman/bir_alt_zaman
/zaman/bir_alt_zaman/ddddddd.zip

This function works

$copy_from_id = '1ayLi94BVtYHvzmbBXmmW3siQrwiJOotc';

function listFiles($service, $folderId, $path = '') {
$resultArray = [];
$results = $service->files->listFiles([
    'orderBy' => "name",
    'q' => "'$folderId' in parents",
]);

foreach ($results->getFiles() as $file) {

    $filePath = $path . '/' . $file->getName();
    $resultArray[$file->getId()] = $filePath;
    
    if ($file->mimeType == 'application/vnd.google-apps.folder') {
        $resultArray = array_merge($resultArray, listFiles($service, $file->getId(), $filePath));
    } // if ($file->mimeType == 'application/vnd.google-apps.folder') {

} // foreach ($results->getFiles() as $file) {

return $resultArray;
} // function listFiles($service, $folderId, $path = '') {


$startingFolderId = ''.$copy_from_id.'';

$filePaths = listFiles($service, $startingFolderId);

echo '<pre>' . print_r($filePaths, true) . '</pre>';

Array output
