You will need to use the getNameIndex to list the files

you would use dirname to figure out the path, you can use the level to 
get the root.
https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.dirname.php

You can store the first files root directory in a variable, then check 
if the next file has the same root as the previous one, if they differ, 
than you know there is multiple directories. If the variable value is 
empty, then you have files directly in the root.
