如何从文件夹中获取第一个文件名并在PHP中删除它

Question

I try to make a gallery. In a folder I have some duplicate pictures. I have pictures named: af_160112, af_160113, af_160114. I would like remove this first one. How to take the first picture in a folder and delete it? So far I have known that I should use unlinke($file) function. Thank you for your help.

Answer 1

Solved.

I used:

$files = glob($path_to_gallery . '/*.{jpg,png,gif}', GLOB_BRACE);
   foreach($files as $file) {
   unlink($file);
   break;
   }

Answer 2

$path = 'full_path/gallery/';
$dir = opendir($path);
while ($dir && ($file = readdir($dir)) !== false) {
    unlink($path.$file);
    break;
}
