Struct std::fs::DirEntry
[−]
[src]
pub struct DirEntry(_);
Entries returned by the ReadDir iterator.
An instance of DirEntry represents an entry inside of a directory on the
filesystem. Each entry can be inspected via methods to learn about the full
path or possibly other metadata through per-platform extension traits.
Methods
impl DirEntry
fn path(&self) -> PathBuf
Returns the full path to the file that this entry represents.
The full path is created by joining the original path to read_dir or
walk_dir with the filename of this entry.
Examples
fn main() { use std::fs; fn foo() -> std::io::Result<()> { for entry in try!(fs::read_dir(".")) { let dir = try!(entry); println!("{:?}", dir.path()); } Ok(()) } }use std::fs; for entry in try!(fs::read_dir(".")) { let dir = try!(entry); println!("{:?}", dir.path()); }
This prints output like:
"./whatever.txt"
"./foo.html"
"./hello_world.rs"
The exact text, of course, depends on what files you have in ..
fn metadata(&self) -> Result<Metadata>
Return the metadata for the file that this entry points at.
This function will not traverse symlinks if this entry points at a symlink.
Platform behavior
On Windows this function is cheap to call (no extra system calls
needed), but on Unix platforms this function is the equivalent of
calling symlink_metadata on the path.
fn file_type(&self) -> Result<FileType>
Return the file type for the file that this entry points at.
This function will not traverse symlinks if this entry points at a symlink.
Platform behavior
On Windows and most Unix platforms this function is free (no extra
system calls needed), but some Unix platforms may require the equivalent
call to symlink_metadata to learn about the target file type.
fn file_name(&self) -> OsString
Returns the bare file name of this directory entry without any other leading path component.
