track results of $zip->expandTo in order to log files?

I am using the PHP zipArchive class to uncompress files and store them on a server, but I have a couple of problems

extractTo method only returns true开发者_如何学运维 or fales, I need a list of the file names and types to that I can

• Check they are valid file types for the function
• Connect the files with database objects for retrieval

Any ideas?

you can extend the class, adding a logging function which then passes through the params to the extractTo method...

see: http://php.net/manual/en/keyword.extends.php

Answering my own question for completeness, the DirectoryIterator is the best way. The process being:

• Create Temp folder
• Extract
• Check with DirectoryIterator class
• Move to Permanent location
• Delete Temp folder
