# svn_ls

Returns list of directory contents in repository URL, optionally at revision number

### Description

array svn_ls ( string `$repos_url` [, int `$revision_no` = SVN_REVISION_HEAD [, bool `$recurse` = false [, bool `$peg` = false ]]] )

This function queries the repository URL and returns a list of files and directories, optionally from a specific revision. This is equivalent to `svn list $repos_url[@$revision_no]`

> Note:

> This function does not work with working copies. `repos_url` must be a repository URL.

### Parameters

`url`

  URL of the repository, eg. `http://www.example.com/svnroot`. To access a local Subversion repository via filesystem, use the file URI scheme, eg. `file:///home/user/svn-repos`

`revision`

  Integer revision number to retrieve listing of. When omitted, the HEAD revision is used.

`recurse`

  Enables recursion.

### Return Values

On success, this function returns an array file listing in the format of:

    [0] => Array
        (
            [created_rev] => integer revision number of last edit
            [last_author] => string author name of last edit
            [size] => integer byte file size of file
            [time] => string date of last edit in form 'M d H:i'
                      or 'M d Y', depending on how old the file is
            [time_t] => integer unix timestamp of last edit
            [name] => name of file/directory
            [type] => type, can be 'file' or 'dir'
        )
    [1] => ...

### Notes

### Examples

Example #1 svn_ls example

`<?php
print_r( svn_ls('http://www.example.com/svnroot/') );
?>`

The above example will output something similar to:

    Array
    (
        [0] => Array
            (
                [created_rev] => 20
                [last_author] => Joe
                [size] => 0
                [time] => Apr 02 09:28
                [time_t] => 1175520529
                [name] => tags
                [type] => dir
            )
        [1] => Array
            (
                [created_rev] => 23
                [last_author] => Bob
                [size] => 0
                [time] => Apr 02 15:15
                [time_t] => 1175541322
                [name] => trunk
                [type] => dir
            )
