You can use linux command
$target = "foobar.php"; searchFile($target); function searchFile($target){ $file_name = basename(__FILE__); $cmd = sprintf("grep -r --exclude='%s' %s ./* ",$file_name, $target); $res = exec($cmd); if($res){ echo "Exists!" . PHP_EOL; print_r($res); return true; } return false; }
