How to access the first result file Finder :: files ()?

Question

How can I get the first file with symfony / finder ?

I tried to do like this:

<?php // ... $finder = new Finder(); $finder ->files() ->in($this->getKernel()->getRootDir().'/../web/uploads/') ->name($filename); if (!$finder->count()) { throw new NotFoundHttpException('Image not found'); } dump( $finder->count(), $finder->getIterator()->current(), $finder->getIterator()->valid() ); 

and I get this result:

 1 null false 

Answer 1

Iterator Sequence:

• rewind
• valid
• current / key
• Following
• valid
• current / key
• Following
• ...

try \var_dump(\iterator_to_array($finder)); first or \var_dump(\iterator_to_array($finder));

Answer 2

 $iterator = $finder->getIterator(); $iterator->rewind(); $firstFile = $iterator->current();
