What are some best practices for renaming files in PHP based on specific criteria, such as dates and excluding holidays?

When renaming files in PHP based on specific criteria such as dates and excluding holidays, it is important to first determine the date and check if it falls on a holiday. This can be achieved by creating a function that checks if a given date is a holiday or not. Once the date is validated, you can then rename the file accordingly using the date or any other criteria. 

function isHoliday($date) {
    // Check if $date is a holiday
    // Return true if it is a holiday, false otherwise
}

$originalFileName = "example.txt";
$date = date('Y-m-d');
if (!isHoliday($date)) {
    $newFileName = $date . "_" . $originalFileName;
    rename($originalFileName, $newFileName);
}
