In this tutorial, Today I will explain how to get the root directory path in Magento 2. If you need to root the directory path in your custom module then, you need to inject \Magento\Framework\Filesystem\DirectoryList class in your construct. So, Let’s check the below steps with output.
You may also like this :
1) Object Manager Method :
[dm_code_snippet background=”no” background-mobile=”no” slim=”no” line-numbers=”no” bg-color=”#fff” theme=”dark” language=”php” wrapped=”no” height=”” copy-text=”Copy Code” copy-confirmed=”Copied”]
/**
* Created By : Rohan Hapani
*/
$objectManager = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance();
$directory = $objectManager->get('\Magento\Framework\Filesystem\DirectoryList');
echo $rootPath = $directory->getRoot();
// Output : /var/www/html/m235
[/dm_code_snippet]
2) Dependency Injection Method :
[dm_code_snippet background=”no” background-mobile=”no” slim=”no” line-numbers=”no” bg-color=”#fff” theme=”dark” language=”php” wrapped=”no” height=”” copy-text=”Copy Code” copy-confirmed=”Copied”]
/**
* Created By : Rohan Hapani
*/
/**
* @var \Magento\Framework\Filesystem\DirectoryList
*/
protected $dir;
public function __construct(
...
\Magento\Framework\Filesystem\DirectoryList $dir,
...
) {
...
$this->dir = $dir;
...
}
public function getRootPath()
{
return $this->dir->getRoot(); // Output : /var/www/html/m235
}
[/dm_code_snippet]
Note : Avoid to use of object manager method directly.
However, If you want to get a media, var, pub, etc. directory path then, you can use the below codes to get the appropriate directory path.
