Local & SafeLocal

Those two adapters aims to use local filesystem. The second one will encode in base64 the filename before storing/retrieving.

First, you will need to install the adapter:

composer require gaufrette/local-adapter

Example

<?php

use Gaufrette\Filesystem;
use Gaufrette\Adapter\Local as LocalAdapter;

$adapter = new LocalAdapter('/var/media', true, 0750);
$filesystem = new Filesystem($adapter);

Delete a directory

Directory deletion is a feature only available on the Local adapter. It is not supported by the FilesysteInterface which aims to only deal with objects.

Following the above statement, you have to explicitely retrieve the adapter in order to delete a directory :

$filesystem->getAdapter()->delete($dirKey);

Note that you can't delete the root directory of the Local adapter.
