Change file permissions dynamically with php

A tutorial to change file permissions dynamically with php

First define the function name in this case call it change Permissions with two parameters $path is the path to the folder and $modlevel is the permissions level to use.

function changePermissions($path,$modlevel){

Then using the command chmod we change the file permissions.

chmod($path,$modlevel);

Then do an if statement to see if it's worked or failed this is optional

if(chmod){
  echo "success";
} else {
  echo "failed";
}

To run the function you need to call it, you call it by typing it's name with the parameters

changePermissions("/assets/images/uploads/",777);

Here's the full script:

<?php
function changePermissions($path,$modlevel){
chmod($path,$modlevel);
if(chmod){
  echo "success";
} else {
  echo "failed";
}
}

changePermissions("/assets/images/uploads/",777);
?>

That's it now you should be able to change file permissions dynamically with php.
