如何在php中设置根目录

Question

I am developing a website based on MVC Design Pattern.

I need to access to another folder from public folder but the problem is it recognizes public folder as root directory. I checked path using window.location.pathname in javascript and it returns / so it's literally impossible to access to out of root directory.

I guess .htaccess file redirects the path. can anyone let me know how to set Web folder as root directory ?

.htaccess in Web

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteRule    ^$    public/    [L]
    RewriteRule    (.*) public/$1    [L]
</IfModule>

.htaccess in public

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [PT,L]
</IfModule>

Answer 1

You are not able to access files outside of your webroot with JS. However, you could create a Symlink in your public folder.

ln -s web/your/file web/public/symlink

Answer 2

Write this code to set root dir. in your index file. It may help you to web as root.

    if(!defined('ROOT_PATH')) define('ROOT_PATH','./'); //root path. Damn directories
    define('ROOT_DIR',str_replace('\\\\', '/', realpath(dirname(__FILE__))).'/'); #Get real path for root dir ---linux and windows

print_r(ROOT_DIR);

Answer 3

set this path to your index file.

$path = " http://www.yourdomain.com/ ";

define ( 'PATH', $path );

and every where you can call "PATH" variable in php you can do vardump(PATH);

i hope this is helpfull.. for u
