PHP mkdir of a SPLFileObject

I'm trying to create n directories based on a TXT file using this code:

<?php

$file = new SPLFileObject('/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/artists_report/2014/artists.txt');
foreach ($file as $line) {
    mkdir($line);
}

?>

What I expect is mkdir assigning a namefolder based on each line I've got in artists.txt <- $line, but the directories are created without names and I can't understand why mkdir is not taking $line as a string.

Any ideas?

Solution

  • Use file instead of SPLFileObject

    $file = file('/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/artists_report/2014/artists.txt');
foreach ($file as $line) {
    mkdir($line);
}

    This assumes that each line in artists.txt is a full path name
