Functions ¶
func ReadDirnames ¶ added in v0.0.2
ReadDirnames returns a slice of strings, representing the file system children of the specified directory. If the specified directory is a symbolic link, it will be resolved.
children, err := godirwalk.ReadDirnames(osPathname, 0) if err != nil { return nil, errors.Wrap(err, "cannot get list of directory children") } sort.Strings(children) for _, child := range children { fmt.Printf("%s\n", child) }
func Walk ¶ added in v0.1.0
Walk walks the file tree rooted at the specified directory, calling the specified callback function for each file system node in the tree, including root, symbolic links, and other node types. The nodes are walked in lexical order, which makes the output deterministic but means that for very large directories this function can be inefficient.
This function is often much faster than filepath.Walk because it does not invoke os.Stat for every node it encounters, but rather obtains the file system node type when it reads the parent directory.
func main() { dirname := "." if len(os.Args) > 1 { dirname = os.Args[1] } if err := godirwalk.Walk(dirname, callback); err != nil { fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "%s\n", err) os.Exit(1) } } func callback(osPathname string, mode os.FileMode) error { fmt.Printf("%s %s\n", mode, osPathname) return nil }
func WalkFollowSymlinks ¶ added in v0.1.0
WalkFollowSymlinks walks the file tree rooted at the specified directory, calling the specified callback function for each file system node in the tree, including root, symbolic links, and other node types. The nodes are walked in lexical order, which makes the output deterministic but means that for very large directories this function can be inefficient.
This function is often much faster than filepath.Walk because it does not invoke os.Stat every node it encounters, but rather obtains the file system node type when it reads the parent directory.
This function also follows symbolic links that point to directories, and therefore ought to be used with caution, as calling it may cause an infinite loop in cases where the file system includes a logical loop of symbolic links.
Types ¶
type Dirent ¶
type Dirent struct { // Name is the filename of the file system entry, relative to its parent. Name string // ModeType is the mode bits that specify the file system entry type. We // could make our own enum-like data type for encoding the file type, but // Go's runtime already gives us architecture independent file modes, as // discussed in `os/types.go`: // // Go's runtime FileMode type has same definition on all systems, so that // information about files can be moved from one system to another // portably. ModeType os.FileMode }
Dirent stores the name and file system mode type of discovered file system entries.
type Dirents ¶
type Dirents []*Dirent
Dirents represents a slice of Dirent pointers, which are sortable by name. This type satisfies the `sort.Interface` interface.
func ReadDirents ¶ added in v0.0.2
ReadDirents returns a slice of pointers to Dirent structures, representing the file system children of the specified directory. If the specified directory is a symbolic link, it will be resolved.
children, err := godirwalk.ReadDirents(osPathname, 0) if err != nil { return nil, errors.Wrap(err, "cannot get list of directory children") } sort.Sort(children) for _, child := range children { fmt.Printf("%s %s\n", child.ModeType, child.Name) }
type WalkFunc ¶ added in v0.1.0
WalkFunc is the type of the function called for each file system node visited by Walk. The path argument contains the argument to Walk as a prefix; that is, if Walk is called with "dir", which is a directory containing the file "a", the provided WalkFunc will be invoked with the argument "dir/a", using the correct os.PathSeparator for the Go Operating System architecture, GOOS. The mode argument is the os.FileMode for the named path, masked to the bits that identify the file system node type, i.e., os.ModeType.
If an error is returned by the walk function, processing stops. The sole exception is when the function returns the special value filepath.SkipDir. If the function returns filepath.SkipDir when invoked on a directory, Walk skips the directory's contents entirely. If the function returns filepath.SkipDir when invoked on a non-directory file system node, Walk skips the remaining files in the containing directory.
