Can I use dir
command-line to get a list of sub-folders and their files, ordered by folder-names, and not just file-names ?
using
dir /s/b/o:gn > f.txt
I first get all sub-folders and only then all sub files, e.g.:
d:\root0\root1\folderA d:\root0\root1\folderB d:\root0\root1\file00.txt d:\root0\root1\file01.txt d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA00.txt d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA01.txt d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB00.txt d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB01.txt
But I want to get -
d:\root0\root1\file00.txt d:\root0\root1\file01.txt d:\root0\root1\folderA d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA00.txt d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA01.txt d:\root0\root1\folderB d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB00.txt d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB01.txt
["file00.txt" and "file01.txt" can also be at the end of the list]
Thanks,

PHP using scandir() to find folders in a directory The scandir function is an inbuilt function that returns an array of files and directories of a specific directory. It lists the files and directories present inside the path specified by the user.
In the DOS command prompt, navigate (by using "cd C:foldernamefoldername etc until you are there) to the level that contains the folder in question (do not navigate *into that folder); then type the name of the folder for whose contents you want to generate a file list, followed by a ">", then enter a name for the file ...
You can use the DIR command by itself (just type “dir” at the Command Prompt) to list the files and folders in the current directory.
How about using sort
?
dir /b /s | sort
Here's an example I tested with:
dir /s /b /o:gn
d:\root0 d:\root0\root1 d:\root0\root1\folderA d:\root0\root1\folderB d:\root0\root1\file00.txt d:\root0\root1\file01.txt d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA00.txt d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA01.txt d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB00.txt d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB01.txt
dir /s /b | sort
d:\root0 d:\root0\root1 d:\root0\root1\file00.txt d:\root0\root1\file01.txt d:\root0\root1\folderA d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA00.txt d:\root0\root1\folderA\fileA01.txt d:\root0\root1\folderB d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB00.txt d:\root0\root1\folderB\fileB01.txt
To just get directories, use the /A:D
parameter:
dir /a:d /s /b | sort
Hej man, why are you using this ?
dir /s/b/o:gn > f.txt (wrong one)
Don't you know what is that 'g' in '/o' ??
Check this out: http://www.computerhope.com/dirhlp.htm or dir /? for dir help
You should be using this instead:
dir /s/b/o:n > f.txt (right one)
