__NOTOC__
This function returns a list of all files that are found under the wild-card and directory parameters. It is similar to [[MTA:Eir/FileSystem/translator/scanDir]] but returns files only.

==Syntax==
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
table translator.getFiles ( string dirPath, string wildcard, bool recursive )
</syntaxhighlight>

==Arguments==
*'''dirPath:''' a path to the directory the scan shall take place or start in
*'''wildcard:''' glob-style wild-card for filename matching; every filename that matches the wild-card is returned
*'''recursive:''' a boolean that specifies whether the whole directory tree at dirPath should be included into the scan

==Returns==
This function returns a table of all matching file entries for the performed scan. It returns '''false''' if '''dirPath''' is not a valid directory target for the translator.

==Example==
<section name="Client" class="client" show="true">
This snippet is yet another alternative to output the count of directories and files in a folder.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
-- Get a handle to the resource instance directory.
local resRoot = fileCreateTranslator( "/" );

local function getFilesystemObjectCounts( path )
local fileCount = 0;
local dirCount = 0;

-- Query the counts.
fileCount = #getFiles( path, "*", false );
dirCount = #getDirs( path, "*", false );

-- Return the counts.
return fileCount, dirCount;
end

-- Output the filesystem object counts for the resource instance root.
local fileCount, dirCount = getFilesystemObjectCounts( "/" );

outputChatBox( "found " .. fileCount .. " files and " .. dirCount .. " directories in the resource folder root." );
</syntaxhighlight>
