PHP - Duplicating $_FILES superglobal

I have a PHP function that I use regularly for working with images (resizing, watermarking, converting to grayscale, etc). I am happy with it and it works well. However, it is designed to work with the $_FILES superglobal, and accepts it as a parameter.

I've run into a situation where I have an existing directory of files on my server that I need to process in the same way as I do for files uploaded from a form into the $_FILES array.

Figuring it would be easiest to work with my existing function, I have been looking for a way to duplicate the $_FILES superglobal, so I can pass it to my script, but I am not finding the functions/properties I need to accomplish this. (Although, at a glance, the getimagesize and filesize functions looks like they may help).

Can anyone advise on what functions/properties I would need to duplicate the $_FILES array? (Or an alternate way to accomplish what I am trying to do?)

For reference's sake, the image function I use is here:

function resize_upload ($file, $dest, $maxw = 50, $maxh = 50, $grey = false, $wm = false, $mark = "a/i/watermark.png", $opa = 40) {     
    $allowext = array("gif", "jpg", "png", "jpeg", "bmp");      
    $fileext = strtolower(getExtension($file['name'])); 
    if (!in_array($fileext,$allowext)) {
        echo "Wrong file extension.";
        exit();
    }
    list($width, $height, $imgcon) = getimagesize($file['tmp_name']);   
    if ($file['size'] && ($width > $maxw || $height > $maxh)) {     
        if($file['type'] == "image/pjpeg" || $file['type'] == "image/jpeg"){$newimg = imagecreatefromjpeg($file['tmp_name']);}
        elseif($file['type'] == "image/x-png" || $file['type'] == "image/png"){$newimg = imagecreatefrompng($file['tmp_name']);}
        elseif($file['type'] == "image/gif"){$newimg = imagecreatefromgif($file['tmp_name']);}          
        $ratio = $width/$height;
        if ($ratio < 1) { // Width < Height
            $newheight = $maxh;
            $newwidth = $width * ($maxh/$height);
            if ($newwidth > $maxw) {
                $newheight = $newheight * ($maxw/$newwidth);
                $newwidth = $maxw;              
            }
        } elseif ($ratio == 1) { // Width = Height
            if ($maxw < $maxh) {
                $newheight = $maxw;
                $newwidth = $maxw;
            } elseif ($maxw == $maxh) {
                $newheight = $maxh;
                $newwidth = $maxw;
            } elseif ($maxw > $maxh) {
                $newheight = $maxh;
                $newwidth = $maxh;
            }
        } elseif ($ratio > 1) { // Width > Height           
            $newwidth = $maxw;
            $newheight = $height * ($maxw/$width);
            if ($newheight > $maxh) {
                $newwidth = $newwidth * ($maxh/$newheight);
                $newheight = $maxh;
            }
        }       
        if (function_exists(imagecreatetruecolor)) {$resize = imagecreatetruecolor($newwidth, $newheight);}             
        if (($imgcon == IMAGETYPE_GIF)) {
            $trnprt_indx = imagecolortransparent($newimg);
            if ($trnprt_indx >= 0) {
                $trnprt_color = imagecolorsforindex($newimg, $trnprt_indx);
                $trnprt_indx = imagecolorallocate($resize, $trnprt_color['red'], $trnprt_color['green'], $trnprt_color['blue']);
                imagefill($resize, 0, 0, $trnprt_indx);
                imagecolortransparent($resize, $trnprt_indx);
            }
        } elseif ($imgcon == IMAGETYPE_PNG) {
            imagealphablending($resize, false);
            $color = imagecolorallocatealpha($resize, 0, 0, 0, 127);
            imagefill($resize, 0, 0, $color);

        }

The $_FILES array contains a nested array for an uploaded file. This nested array has 5 keys. For each key I explain what it should contain, and what function to use:

  • name: the name of the file, use the basename() function for this entry
  • type: the mime type of the file, for images set to 'image/png', 'image/jpeg', etc
  • tmp_name: the path to the actual file, here you should set the path to your images
  • error: this indicates that an error occured with the upload, in your case you can set it to 0 for no error
  • size: the size of the file in bytes, so you can use the filesize() function for your image

An example:

$_FILES = array('image' => array(
    'name' => basename('/path/to/image.png'),
    'type' => 'image/png',
    'tmp_name' => '/path/to/image.png',
    'error' => 0,
    'size' => filesize('/path/to/image.png')
));

If you want to process multiple files at once, you should be aware that the structure of the $_FILES array is different than what you would expect in this case, see this comment in the PHP docs.
