README

fchk

fchk is a small package, used in a few of my open source projects:

• git-in-sync: Keep all of your git repos in sync across multiple computers
• js2x: Convert Javascript to Markdown and beyond with js2x

Functions in package fchk return bool values, indicating the status of files or folders.

The name is a reduction of "file check".

// NotEmpty returns true if the target is an non-empty directory.
func NotEmpty(p string) bool {

	var f *os.File
	var err error

	if f, err = os.Open(p); err != nil {
		return false
	}

	if _, err = f.Readdir(1); err == io.EOF {
		return false
	}

	return true
}
