- 11.x core/lib/Drupal/Core/File/FileSystemInterface.php \Drupal\Core\File\FileSystemInterface::dirname()
Gets the name of the directory from a given path.
PHP's dirname() does not properly pass streams, so this function fills that gap. It is backwards compatible with normal paths and will use PHP's dirname() as a fallback.
Compatibility: normal paths and stream wrappers.
Parameters
string $uri: A URI or path.
Return value
string A string containing the directory name.
