I have a directory \'Folder\' with many subdirectories inside this directory. Inside every subdirectory there are many images. I want to loop through subdirectories in the \
This should list all files starting from C:\Images and go through all subdirs and their subdirs as well.
public void ExportToExcel()
{
//for export
var objExcelPackage = new ExcelPackage(); //create new workbook
this.ListFiles(objExcelPackage, 0, Server.MapPath("~/Folder"));
var filepath = new FileInfo(@"C:\Users\user\Desktop\Test\" + datetime.ToString("dd-MM-yyyy_hh-mm-ss") + ".xlsx");
objExcelPackage.SaveAs(filepath);
}
public void ListFiles(ExcelPackage objExcelPackage, int worksheetIndex, string path)
{
var imageCount = 0;
var x = 25;
var finalValue = 0;
var files = Directory.GetFiles(path).Select(s => new FileInfo(s));
if (files.Any())
{
//create new worksheet
var ws = objExcelPackage.Workbook.Worksheets.Add("Worksheet" + (++worksheetIndex));
foreach (var file in files)
{
imageCount++;
var TEST_IMAGE = new System.Web.UI.WebControls.Image();
var myImage = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(img);
var pic = ws.Drawings.AddPicture(imageCount.ToString(), myImage);
// Row, RowoffsetPixel, Column, ColumnOffSetPixel
if (imageCount > 1)
{
pic.SetPosition(finalValue, 0, 2, 0);
finalValue += (x + 1); // Add 1 to have 1 row of empty row
}
else
{
pic.SetPosition(imageCount, 0, 2, 0);
finalValue = (imageCount + x) + 1; // Add 1 to have 1 row of empty
}
}
}
foreach (var dir in Directory.GetDirectories(path))
{
this.ListFiles(objExcelPackage, worksheetIndex, dir);
}
}
The Composite Pattern fits your problem here.
public interface IExcelWorksheetAdapter
{
//todo: implement this method, here you have everything you need for an image file
void AddPicture(FileSystemItem aFile);
}
public class FileSystemItem
{
public virtual string FullPath { get; protected set; }
public virtual int Level { get; set; }
public virtual string Name
{
get
{
if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(FullPath)) return string.Empty;
return FullPath.Split('\\').Last();
}
}
public virtual void Operation(IExcelWorksheetAdapter ws) { }
}
public class FolderItem : FileSystemItem
{
public FolderItem(string fullPath)
{
Items = new List<FileSystemItem>();
if (!Directory.Exists(fullPath)) return;
FullPath = fullPath;
var files = Directory.GetFiles(FullPath).Select(p => new FileItem(p) { Level = this.Level + 1 }).ToList();
Items.AddRange(files);
var subFolders = Directory.GetDirectories(fullPath).Select(p => new FolderItem(p) {Level = this.Level + 1}).ToList();
Items.AddRange(subFolders);
}
public List<FileSystemItem> Items { get; set; }
public override void Operation(IExcelWorksheetAdapter ws)
{
Items.ForEach(x => x.Operation(ws));
}
}
public class FileItem : FileSystemItem
{
public FileItem(string path)
{
if (File.Exists(path))
{
FullPath = path;
}
}
public override void Operation(IExcelWorksheetAdapter ws)
{
ws.AddPicture(this);
}
}
[TestFixture]
public class DirectoryCompositeTest
{
[Test]
public void Operation_for_a_directory_files()
{
var directory = new FolderItem(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory);
directory.Operation(new Sample()); // give your IExcelWorksheetAdapter implementation here.
}
}
public class Sample : IExcelWorksheetAdapter
{
public void AddPicture(FileSystemItem aFile)
{
Console.WriteLine(Indent(aFile.Level) + aFile.Name);
}
private string Indent(int level)
{
string result = "";
for (int i = 0; i < level; i++)
{
result += "-";
}
return result;
}
}
Directory.GetFiles(dir) returns all files in dir, without folders you should use Directory.EnumerateDirectories(dir)
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
class Program
{
private static void Main(string[] args)
{
try
{
string dirPath = @"\\archives\2009\reports";
List<string> dirs = new List<string>(Directory.EnumerateDirectories(dirPath));
foreach (var dir in dirs)
{
Console.WriteLine("{0}", dir.Substring(dir.LastIndexOf("\\") + 1));
}
Console.WriteLine("{0} directories found.", dirs.Count);
}
catch (UnauthorizedAccessException UAEx)
{
Console.WriteLine(UAEx.Message);
}
catch (PathTooLongException PathEx)
{
Console.WriteLine(PathEx.Message);
}
}
}
Janne Matikainen answer is correct but you need to know how to modify in your code...
First change your code this line
string[] filesindirectory = Directory.GetFiles(Server.MapPath("~/Folder"));
to
string[] filesindirectory = Directory.GetDirectories(Server.MapPath("~/Folder"));
Secondly you need to search file in your sub folder path which is your
foreach (string subdir in filesindirectory)
subdir is your path for your directory.
Just do back the same thing what you did to get the files
foreach (string img in Directory.GetFiles(subdir))
After you finish the foreach subdirectory
foreach (string img in Directory.GetFiles(subdir))
{
// Your Code
}
// Reset the Count1
count1 = 0;
Reset it because you are increasing for dynamic row generating for each sheet.
Then you at new sheet and you didn't reset it.
It will continue the count as per previous sheet.
To get the folder name you can easily get it by split.
Before you create the worksheet you do as per below.
string[] splitter = subdir.Split('\\');
string folderName = splitter[splitter.Length - 1];
Take NOTES if the folderName contain some symbol it might not able to set it to excel worksheet and also the name cannot be too long.
Please ensure that you replace with supportable symbol for excel worksheet
