wireTempDir() function

Return a new temporary directory/path ready to use for files

The directory will be automatically removed after a set period of time (default=120s).
This is a procedural version of the $files->tempDir() method.

$td = wireTempDir('hello-world');
$path = (string) $td; // or use $td->get();
file_put_contents($path . 'some-file.txt', 'Hello world');

// basic usage
$wireTempDir = wireTempDir($name);

// usage with all arguments
$wireTempDir = wireTempDir($name, $options = array);
