FileLocator
The FileLocator Component allows one to locate files using different strategies.
This is mostly useful to find configuration files or project roots, e.g. trying to find a possibly near composer.json file.
There are three strategies:
- Recursive up: Tries to find a file at specified location, and if not found goes one level up and repeats this process until the file is found, or until there is no longer a parent level.
- Recursive down: Tries to find a file in the at specified location, and if not found goes one level down
- At location: Tries to find a file only at the specified location without going up or down
