path_info
The path_info function parses a file path and returns its components.
The values returned can include:
- basename - the filename including the extension
- dirname - the path up to the filename
- extension - the file extension - this is the only value that may be missing if the file path doesn't contain a file extension
- filename - the file name minus the extension
If only a specific file path part is required then that can be passed as the second parameter. If it exists in the file path then it will be returned. Otherwise false will be returned.
Example
{% set path = '/path/to/file/myfile.pdf' %}
{% set fileParts = path_info('/path/to/myfile.pdf) %}
{# The above example will return #}
array (
'basename' => 'myfile.pdf',
'dirname' => '/path/to',
'extension' => 'pdf'
'filename' => 'myfile'
