function file_move

file_move(FileInterface $source, $destination = NULL, $replace = FILE_EXISTS_RENAME)

Moves a file to a new location and update the file's database entry.

  • Checks if $source and $destination are valid and readable/writable.
  • Performs a file move if $source is not equal to $destination.
  • If file already exists in $destination either the call will error out, replace the file or rename the file based on the $replace parameter.
  • Adds the new file to the files database.

Parameters

\Drupal\file\FileInterface $source: A file entity.

string $destination: A string containing the destination that $source should be moved to. This must be a stream wrapper URI.

int $replace: (optional) The replace behavior when the destination file already exists. Possible values include:

  • FILE_EXISTS_REPLACE: Replace the existing file. If a managed file with the destination name exists then its database entry will be updated and $source->delete() called after invoking hook_file_move(). If no database entry is found, then the source files record will be updated.
  • FILE_EXISTS_RENAME: (default) Append _{incrementing number} until the filename is unique.
  • FILE_EXISTS_ERROR: Do nothing and return FALSE.

Return value

\Drupal\file\FileInterface|false Resulting file entity for success, or FALSE in the event of an error.
