functions.php

TLDR

This functions.php file provides a function join_paths to join multiple paths together.

Methods

join_paths

This function takes in a base path and an array of paths, and joins them together into a single path. It removes any leading slashes in the paths and adds a directory separator between the paths. The resulting path is then returned.

            if (empty($path)) {
                unset($paths[$index]);
            } else {
                $paths[$index] = DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.ltrim($path, DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
            }
