Minilib.IO.Path
Defined in minilib-io@0.6.1
File Path handling, such as joining paths and retrieving directory name.
Values
namespace Minilib.IO.Path
basename
Type: Std::String -> Std::String
basename(path) returns the last non-slash component. The trailing slashes are removed.
Example:
basename("foo/bar/")
==> "bar"
basename("foo/bar/baz")
==> "baz"
basename("foo")
==> "foo"
basename("/you/can/specify/absolute/path")
==> "path"
dirname
Type: Std::String -> Std::String
dirname(path) returns the path with its last non-slash component and trailing slashes removed.
if path contains no /s, returns ".".
Example:
dirname("foo/bar/")
==> "foo"
dirname("foo/bar/baz")
==> "foo/bar"
dirname("foo")
==> "."
dirname("/you/can/specify/absolute/path")
==> "/you/can/specify/absolute"
is_path_sep
Type: Std::U8 -> Std::Bool
Checks if the byte is a path separator. Currently only '/' is supported.
join_paths
Type: Std::Array Std::String -> Std::String
join_paths(path_segments) joins segments into a path.
Example:
join_paths(["foo", "bar", "baz"])
==> "foo/bar/baz"
join_paths(["/usr/", "local", "bin/fix"])
==> "/usr/local/bin/fix"
relativize
Type: Std::String -> Std::String -> Std::Result Std::ErrMsg Std::String
base.relativize(target) constructs a relative path from base to target.
base and target should have the same type (i.e. relative path or absolute path).
If only one of base and target is an absolute path, "different type of path" error is returned.
If base == target, then an empty string is returned.
"/usr/".relativize("/usr/bin/ls")
==> "bin/ls"
"/usr/local".relativize("/usr/bin/ls")
==> "../bin/ls"
"foo/bar/baz".relativize("abc/def")
==> "../../../abc/def"
