Function to get permissions of file or folder in PHP.
function getPermission($path) { return (is_dir($path) || is_file($path)) ? substr(decoct(fileperms($path)), -4) : '0000';}
or you can check if permissions are sufficient:
function hasPermission($path, $permission = 777) { $current = substr(decoct(fileperms($path)), $permission > 1000 ? -4 : -3); return ($current > $permission);}
