How to calculate the relative path between two files through php

php method to calculate the relative path between two files

For example:

File The path of file A is /home/web/lib/img/cache.php

The path of file B is /home/web/api/img /show.php

Then, the path of file A relative to file B is ../../lib/img/cache.php, That is, file B accesses the relative path of file A.

function getRelativePath

<?php
/** 计算path1 相对于 path2 的路径,即在path2引用paht1的相对路径
* @param  String $path1
* @param  String $path2
* @return String
*/
function getRelativePath($path1, $path2){
    $arr1 = explode(&#39;/&#39;, $path1);
    $arr2 = explode(&#39;/&#39;, $path2);
    // 获取相同路径的部分
    $intersection = array_intersect_assoc($arr1, $arr2);
    $depth = 0;
    for($i=0,$len=count($intersection); $i<$len; $i++){
        $depth = $i;
        if(!isset($intersection[$i])){
            break;
        }
    }
    // 前面全部匹配
    if($i==count($intersection)){
        $depth ++;
    }
    // 将path2的/ 转为 ../，path1获取后面的部分，然后合拼
    
    // 计算前缀
    if(count($arr2)-$depth-1>0){
        $prefix = array_fill(0, count($arr2)-$depth-1, &#39;..&#39;);
    }else{
        $prefix = array(&#39;.&#39;);
    }
    $tmp = array_merge($prefix, array_slice($arr1, $depth));
    $relativePath = implode(&#39;/&#39;, $tmp);
    return $relativePath;
}
?>

demo

<?php
$path1 = &#39;/home/web/lib/img/cache.php&#39;;
$path2 = &#39;/home/show.php&#39;;
echo getRelativePath($path1, $path2).&#39;<br>&#39;; // ./web/lib/img/cache.php
$path1 = &#39;/home/web/lib/img/cache.php&#39;;
$path2 = &#39;/home/web/api/show.php&#39;;
echo getRelativePath($path1, $path2).&#39;<br>&#39;; // ../lib/img/cache.php
$path1 = &#39;/home/web/lib/img/cache.php&#39;;  
$path2 = &#39;/home/web/api/img/show.php&#39;;  
echo getRelativePath($path1, $path2).&#39;<br>&#39;; // ../../lib/img/cache.php
$path1 = &#39;/home/web/lib/img/cache.php&#39;;
$path2 = &#39;/xhome/web/show.php&#39;;
echo getRelativePath($path1, $path2).&#39;<br>&#39;; // ../../home/web/lib/img/cache.php
?>
