Dropzone.js - Display existing files on server

I'm currently using dropzone.js v3.10.2 I am having issues displaying my existing files I have already uploaded. I am more than competent with php however I have limited knowledge when it comes to ajax and js

If you could help that would be awesome

Thanks in advance

index.php

    <html>

<head>  

<link href="css/dropzone.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" />


<script src="ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>

<script src="dropzone.min.js"></script>

<script>

Dropzone.options.myDropzone = {
    init: function() {
        thisDropzone = this;

        $.get('upload.php', function(data) {


            $.each(data, function(key,value){

                var mockFile = { name: value.name, size: value.size };

                thisDropzone.options.addedfile.call(thisDropzone, mockFile);

                thisDropzone.options.thumbnail.call(thisDropzone, mockFile, "uploads/"+value.name);

            });

        });
    }
};
</script>

</head>

<body>


<form action="upload.php" class="dropzone" id="my-dropzone"></form>

</body>

upload.php

<?php
$ds          = DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR; 

$storeFolder = 'uploads';  

if (!empty($_FILES)) {

    $tempFile = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];         

    $targetPath = dirname( __FILE__ ) . $ds. $storeFolder . $ds; 

    $targetFile =  $targetPath. $_FILES['file']['name']; 

    move_uploaded_file($tempFile,$targetFile);

} else {                                                           
    $result  = array();

    $files = scandir($storeFolder);                 //1
    if ( false!==$files ) {
        foreach ( $files as $file ) {
            if ( '.'!=$file && '..'!=$file) {       //2
                $obj['name'] = $file;
                $obj['size'] = filesize($storeFolder.$ds.$file);
                $result[] = $obj;
            }
        }
    }

    header('Content-type: text/json');              //3
    header('Content-type: application/json');
    echo json_encode($result);
}
?>

PS. I know the php is retrieving the data

Thanks in advance

For Dropzone 5.x

The solutions given so far did not work with dropzone version 5.x. What worked for me was to modify dropzone's config options as follows:

init: function () {
                var mockFile = {
                    name: 'FileName',
                    size: '1000', 
                    type: 'image/jpeg',
                    accepted: true            // required if using 'MaxFiles' option
                };
                this.files.push(mockFile);    // add to files array
                this.emit("addedfile", mockFile);
                this.emit("thumbnail", mockFile, 'http://url/to/file');
                this.emit("complete", mockFile); 
            }

The concept is, to create a mock file, and call the event handlers addedfile and thumbnail to draw the preview. And then finally call on complete event to ensure that there are no progress bars, etc. being displayed.
