logrotate for log files

PHP Code:

// 1- get a list of file in the CI default CI log file

$LogPathCI = '/var/www/html/Zapplication/logs';

$f1 = new FilesystemIterator($LogPathCI , FilesystemIterator::SKIP_DOTS);

$gjcount=0; // start at
$gjstart=10; // total number to keep

if(iterator_count($f1) < $gjstart){
    gjLog('Number of Files less than number to keep - Nothing to unlink' .PHP_EOL,'test.log');
}

// 2- create an array of files to sort by Modified Time in step 3

$thefiles = array();
foreach($f1 as $fileinfo) {
    $akey = $f1->getFileName();
    if((strtolower($akey)) != 'index.html') {
        $thefiles[$akey] = $f1->getMTime();
    }
}

// 3- sort the files by date - descending  newest first

arsort($thefiles);

// 4- start at 0, after 10 files delete the rest


foreach ($thefiles as $key => $value) {

    if($gjstart < $gjcount){
        gjLog('unlink these key: ' . $key .' value: '. $value .PHP_EOL,'test.log');
        $killme = $LogPathCI . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $key;
        if(!unlink($killme)) {
            gjLog('unable to unlink '. $killme .PHP_EOL,'test.log');
        }
    } else {
        gjLog('keep these key: ' . $key .' value: '. $value .PHP_EOL,'test.log');
    }
    $gjcount++;
} 


I wrote my first program in 15 minutes. It took me 3 hours to keypunch it.

I wrote my first BASH script in 5 minutes. It took me a day to find out I had to put a . (period) in front of it to get it to execute.
