That is a web server option, not a php option.

php is a page content processor. It transforms your html code with a php tags to new html code to send it to browser.
So is accessing the page or directory already done before your php engine gets the page input for processing.

This is a php script that requires password:
------------------
<?php
$shellUser = 'admin';
$shellPswd = 'hn4ucom';
$shellArea = 'Administration';

if (empty($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER']))
{
Header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="My Realm"');
Header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
echo 'Your username/password is required.';
exit;
}
else if ($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER']!=$shellUser || $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW']!=$shellPswd)
{
echo "
<html>
<head>
<title>$shellArea - Your access is banned!</title>
</head>
<h1>Error access</h1>
You tried to access the area where you are not allowed.
<hr>
<em>$shellArea</em>";
exit;
}

// something after that
// ....
?>
------------------
But you need help of web server: use .htaccess for Apache
1/ use mod_rewrite to redirect all to your script above, it will filter some things unnecessary..
2/ just .htaccess, you can protect your file/folder
Both of them can be found at apache.org, in Documentation

all those "solutions" are not even close to "a password on a directory or file"
