=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The C<Path::Class::Dir> class contains functionality for manipulating
|
|
directory names in a cross-platform way.
|
|
|
|
=head1 METHODS
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item $dir = Path::Class::Dir->new( <dir1>, <dir2>, ... )
|
|
|
|
=item $dir = dir( <dir1>, <dir2>, ... )
|
|
|
|
Creates a new C<Path::Class::Dir> object and returns it. The
|
|
arguments specify names of directories which will be joined to create
|
|
a single directory object. A volume may also be specified as the
|
|
first argument, or as part of the first argument. You can use
|
|
platform-neutral syntax:
|
|
|
|
my $dir = dir( 'foo', 'bar', 'baz' );
|
|
|
|
or platform-native syntax:
|
|
|
|
my $dir = dir( 'foo/bar/baz' );
|
|
|
|
or a mixture of the two:
|
|
|
|
my $dir = dir( 'foo/bar', 'baz' );
|
|
|
|
All three of the above examples create relative paths. To create an
|
|
absolute path, either use the platform native syntax for doing so:
|
|
|
|
my $dir = dir( '/var/tmp' );
|
|
|
|
or use an empty string as the first argument:
|
|
|
|
my $dir = dir( '', 'var', 'tmp' );
|
|
|
|
If the second form seems awkward, that's somewhat intentional - paths
|
|
like C</var/tmp> or C<\Windows> aren't cross-platform concepts in the
|
|
first place (many non-Unix platforms don't have a notion of a "root
|
|
directory"), so they probably shouldn't appear in your code if you're
|
|
trying to be cross-platform. The first form is perfectly natural,
|
|
because paths like this may come from config files, user input, or
|
|
whatever.
|
|
|
|
As a special case, since it doesn't otherwise mean anything useful and
|
|
it's convenient to define this way, C<< Path::Class::Dir->new() >> (or
|
|
C<dir()>) refers to the current directory (C<< File::Spec->curdir >>).
|
|
To get the current directory as an absolute path, do C<<
|
|
dir()->absolute >>.
|
|
|
|
Finally, as another special case C<dir(undef)> will return undef,
|
|
since that's usually an accident on the part of the caller, and
|
|
returning the root directory would be a nasty surprise just asking for
|
|
trouble a few lines later.
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->stringify
|
|
|
|
This method is called internally when a C<Path::Class::Dir> object is
|
|
used in a string context, so the following are equivalent:
|
|
|
|
$string = $dir->stringify;
|
|
$string = "$dir";
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->volume
|
|
|
|
Returns the volume (e.g. C<C:> on Windows, C<Macintosh HD:> on Mac OS,
|
|
etc.) of the directory object, if any. Otherwise, returns the empty
|
|
string.
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->basename
|
|
|
|
Returns the last directory name of the path as a string.
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->is_dir
|
|
|
|
Returns a boolean value indicating whether this object represents a
|
|
directory. Not surprisingly, L<Path::Class::File> objects always
|
|
return false, and C<Path::Class::Dir> objects always return true.
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->is_absolute
|
|
|
|
Returns true or false depending on whether the directory refers to an
|
|
absolute path specifier (like C</usr/local> or C<\Windows>).
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->is_relative
|
|
|
|
Returns true or false depending on whether the directory refers to a
|
|
relative path specifier (like C<lib/foo> or C<./dir>).
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->cleanup
|
|
|
|
Performs a logical cleanup of the file path. For instance:
|
|
|
|
my $dir = dir('/foo//baz/./foo')->cleanup;
|
|
# $dir now represents '/foo/baz/foo';
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->resolve
|
|
|
|
Performs a physical cleanup of the file path. For instance:
|
|
|
|
my $dir = dir('/foo//baz/../foo')->resolve;
|
|
# $dir now represents '/foo/foo', assuming no symlinks
|
|
|
|
This actually consults the filesystem to verify the validity of the
|
|
path.
|
|
|
|
=item $file = $dir->file( <dir1>, <dir2>, ..., <file> )
|
|
|
|
Returns a L<Path::Class::File> object representing an entry in C<$dir>
|
|
or one of its subdirectories. Internally, this just calls C<<
|
|
Path::Class::File->new( @_ ) >>.
|
|
|
|
=item $subdir = $dir->subdir( <dir1>, <dir2>, ... )
|
|
|
|
Returns a new C<Path::Class::Dir> object representing a subdirectory
|
|
of C<$dir>.
|
|
|
|
=item $parent = $dir->parent
|
|
|
|
Returns the parent directory of C<$dir>. Note that this is the
|
|
I<logical> parent, not necessarily the physical parent. It really
|
|
means we just chop off entries from the end of the directory list
|
|
until we cain't chop no more. If the directory is relative, we start
|
|
using the relative forms of parent directories.
|
|
|
|
The following code demonstrates the behavior on absolute and relative
|
|
directories:
|
|
|
|
$dir = dir('/foo/bar');
|
|
for (1..6) {
|
|
print "Absolute: $dir\n";
|
|
$dir = $dir->parent;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
$dir = dir('foo/bar');
|
|
for (1..6) {
|
|
print "Relative: $dir\n";
|
|
$dir = $dir->parent;
|
|
}
|

=item @list = $dir->children

|
|
Returns a list of L<Path::Class::File> and/or C<Path::Class::Dir>
|
|
objects listed in this directory, or in scalar context the number of
|
|
such objects. Obviously, it is necessary for C<$dir> to
|
|
exist and be readable in order to find its children.
|
|
|
|
Note that the children are returned as subdirectories of C<$dir>,
|
|
i.e. the children of F<foo> will be F<foo/bar> and F<foo/baz>, not

|
F<bar> and F<baz>.
|
|
|
|
Ordinarily C<children()> will not include the I<self> and I<parent>
|
|
entries C<.> and C<..> (or their equivalents on non-Unix systems),
|
|
because that's like I'm-my-own-grandpa business. If you do want all
|
|
directory entries including these special ones, pass a true value for
|
|
the C<all> parameter:
|
|
|
|
@c = $dir->children(); # Just the children
|
|
@c = $dir->children(all => 1); # All entries
|
|
|
|
In addition, there's a C<no_hidden> parameter that will exclude all
|
|
normally "hidden" entries - on Unix this means excluding all entries
|
|
that begin with a dot (C<.>):
|
|
|
|
@c = $dir->children(no_hidden => 1); # Just normally-visible entries
|
|
|
|
|
|
=item $abs = $dir->absolute
|
|
|
|
Returns a C<Path::Class::Dir> object representing C<$dir> as an
|
|
absolute path. An optional argument, given as either a string or a
|
|
C<Path::Class::Dir> object, specifies the directory to use as the base
|
|
of relativity - otherwise the current working directory will be used.
|
|
|
|
=item $rel = $dir->relative
|
|
|
|
Returns a C<Path::Class::Dir> object representing C<$dir> as a
|
|
relative path. An optional argument, given as either a string or a
|
|
C<Path::Class::Dir> object, specifies the directory to use as the base
|
|
of relativity - otherwise the current working directory will be used.
|
|
|
|
=item $boolean = $dir->subsumes($other)
|
|
|
|
Returns true if this directory spec subsumes the other spec, and false
|
|
otherwise. Think of "subsumes" as "contains", but we only look at the
|
|
I<specs>, not whether C<$dir> actually contains C<$other> on the
|
|
filesystem.
|
|
|
|
The C<$other> argument may be a C<Path::Class::Dir> object, a
|
|
L<Path::Class::File> object, or a string. In the latter case, we
|
|
assume it's a directory.
|
|
|
|
# Examples:
|
|
dir('foo/bar' )->subsumes(dir('foo/bar/baz')) # True
|
|
dir('/foo/bar')->subsumes(dir('/foo/bar/baz')) # True
|
|
dir('foo/..')->subsumes(dir('foo/../bar)) # True
|
|
dir('foo/bar' )->subsumes(dir('bar/baz')) # False
|
|
dir('/foo/bar')->subsumes(dir('foo/bar')) # False
|
|
dir('foo/..')->subsumes(dir('bar')) # False! Use C<contains> to resolve ".."
|
|
|
|
|
|
=item $boolean = $dir->contains($other)
|
|
|
|
Returns true if this directory actually contains C<$other> on the
|
|
filesystem. C<$other> doesn't have to be a direct child of C<$dir>,
|
|
it just has to be subsumed after both paths have been resolved.
|
|
|
|
=item $foreign = $dir->as_foreign($type)
|
|
|
|
Returns a C<Path::Class::Dir> object representing C<$dir> as it would
|
|
be specified on a system of type C<$type>. Known types include
|
|
C<Unix>, C<Win32>, C<Mac>, C<VMS>, and C<OS2>, i.e. anything for which
|
|
there is a subclass of C<File::Spec>.
|
|
|
|
Any generated objects (subdirectories, files, parents, etc.) will also
|
|
retain this type.
|
|
|
|
=item $foreign = Path::Class::Dir->new_foreign($type, @args)
|
|
|
|
Returns a C<Path::Class::Dir> object representing C<$dir> as it would
|
|
be specified on a system of type C<$type>. Known types include
|
|
C<Unix>, C<Win32>, C<Mac>, C<VMS>, and C<OS2>, i.e. anything for which
|
|
there is a subclass of C<File::Spec>.
|
|
|
|
The arguments in C<@args> are the same as they would be specified in
|
|
C<new()>.
|
|
|
|
=item @list = $dir->dir_list([OFFSET, [LENGTH]])
|
|
|
|
Returns the list of strings internally representing this directory
|
|
structure. Each successive member of the list is understood to be an
|
|
entry in its predecessor's directory list. By contract, C<<
|
|
Path::Class->new( $dir->dir_list ) >> should be equivalent to C<$dir>.
|
|
|
|
The semantics of this method are similar to Perl's C<splice> or
|
|
C<substr> functions; they return C<LENGTH> elements starting at
|
|
C<OFFSET>. If C<LENGTH> is omitted, returns all the elements starting
|
|
at C<OFFSET> up to the end of the list. If C<LENGTH> is negative,
|
|
returns the elements from C<OFFSET> onward except for C<-LENGTH>
|
|
elements at the end. If C<OFFSET> is negative, it counts backward
|
|
C<OFFSET> elements from the end of the list. If C<OFFSET> and
|
|
C<LENGTH> are both omitted, the entire list is returned.
|
|
|
|
In a scalar context, C<dir_list()> with no arguments returns the
|
|
number of entries in the directory list; C<dir_list(OFFSET)> returns
|
|
the single element at that offset; C<dir_list(OFFSET, LENGTH)> returns
|
|
the final element that would have been returned in a list context.
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->components
|
|
|
|
Identical to C<dir_list()>. It exists because there's an analogous
|
|
method C<dir_list()> in the C<Path::Class::File> class that also
|
|
returns the basename string, so this method lets someone call
|
|
C<components()> without caring whether the object is a file or a
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
=item $fh = $dir->open()
|
|
|
|
Passes C<$dir> to C<< IO::Dir->open >> and returns the result as an
|
|
L<IO::Dir> object. If the opening fails, C<undef> is returned and
|
|
C<$!> is set.
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->mkpath($verbose, $mode)
|
|
|
|
Passes all arguments, including C<$dir>, to C<< File::Path::mkpath()
|
|
>> and returns the result (a list of all directories created).
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->rmtree($verbose, $cautious)
|
|
|
|
Passes all arguments, including C<$dir>, to C<< File::Path::rmtree()
|
|
>> and returns the result (the number of files successfully deleted).
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->remove()
|
|
|
|
Removes the directory, which must be empty. Returns a boolean value
|
|
indicating whether or not the directory was successfully removed.
|
|
This method is mainly provided for consistency with
|
|
C<Path::Class::File>'s C<remove()> method.
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->tempfile(...)
|
|
|
|
An interface to L<File::Temp>'s C<tempfile()> function. Just like
|
|
that function, if you call this in a scalar context, the return value
|
|
is the filehandle and the file is C<unlink>ed as soon as possible
|
|
(which is immediately on Unix-like platforms). If called in a list
|
|
context, the return values are the filehandle and the filename.
|
|
|
|
The given directory is passed as the C<DIR> parameter.
|
|
|
|
Here's an example of pretty good usage which doesn't allow race
|
|
conditions, won't leave yucky tempfiles around on your filesystem,
|
|
etc.:
|
|
|
|
my $fh = $dir->tempfile;
|
|
print $fh "Here's some data...\n";
|
|
seek($fh, 0, 0);
|
|
while (<$fh>) { do something... }
|
|
|
|
Or in combination with a C<fork>:
|
|
|
|
my $fh = $dir->tempfile;
|
|
print $fh "Here's some more data...\n";
|
|
seek($fh, 0, 0);
|
|
if ($pid=fork()) {
|
|
wait;
|
|
} else {
|
|
something($_) while <$fh>;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
=item $dir_or_file = $dir->next()
|
|
|
|
A convenient way to iterate through directory contents. The first
|
|
time C<next()> is called, it will C<open()> the directory and read the
|
|
first item from it, returning the result as a C<Path::Class::Dir> or
|
|
L<Path::Class::File> object (depending, of course, on its actual
|
|
type). Each subsequent call to C<next()> will simply iterate over the
|
|
directory's contents, until there are no more items in the directory,
|
|
and then the undefined value is returned. For example, to iterate
|
|
over all the regular files in a directory:
|
|
|
|
while (my $file = $dir->next) {
|
|
next unless -f $file;
|
|
my $fh = $file->open('r') or die "Can't read $file: $!";
|
|
...
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
If an error occurs when opening the directory (for instance, it
|
|
doesn't exist or isn't readable), C<next()> will throw an exception
|
|
with the value of C<$!>.
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->traverse( sub { ... }, @args )
|
|
|
|
Calls the given callback for the root, passing it a continuation
|
|
function which, when called, will call this recursively on each of its
|
|
children. The callback function should be of the form:
|
|
|
|
sub {
|
|
my ($child, $cont, @args) = @_;
|
|
# ...
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
For instance, to calculate the number of files in a directory, you
|
|
can do this:
|
|
|
|
my $nfiles = $dir->traverse(sub {
|
|
my ($child, $cont) = @_;
|
|
return sum($cont->(), ($child->is_dir ? 0 : 1));
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
or to calculate the maximum depth of a directory:
|
|
|
|
my $depth = $dir->traverse(sub {
|
|
my ($child, $cont, $depth) = @_;
|
|
return max($cont->($depth + 1), $depth);
|
|
}, 0);
|
|
|
|
You can also choose not to call the callback in certain situations:
|
|
|
|
$dir->traverse(sub {
|
|
my ($child, $cont) = @_;
|
|
return if -l $child; # don't follow symlinks
|
|
# do something with $child
|
|
return $cont->();
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->traverse_if( sub { ... }, sub { ... }, @args )
|
|
|
|
traverse with additional "should I visit this child" callback.
|
|
Particularly useful in case examined tree contains inaccessible
|
|
directories.
|
|
|
|
Canonical example:
|
|
|
|
$dir->traverse_if(
|
|
sub {
|
|
my ($child, $cont) = @_;
|
|
# do something with $child
|
|
return $cont->();
|
|
},
|
|
sub {
|
|
my ($child) = @_;
|
|
# Process only readable items
|
|
return -r $child;
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
Second callback gets single parameter: child. Only children for
|
|
which it returns true will be processed by the first callback.
|
|
|
|
Remaining parameters are interpreted as in traverse, in particular
|
|
C<traverse_if(callback, sub { 1 }, @args> is equivalent to
|
|
C<traverse(callback, @args)>.
|
|
|
|
=item $dir->recurse( callback => sub {...} )
|
|
|
|
Iterates through this directory and all of its children, and all of
|
|
its children's children, etc., calling the C<callback> subroutine for
|
|
each entry. This is a lot like what the L<File::Find> module does,
|
|
and of course C<File::Find> will work fine on L<Path::Class> objects,
|
|
but the advantage of the C<recurse()> method is that it will also feed
|
|
your callback routine C<Path::Class> objects rather than just pathname
|
|
strings.
|
|
|
|
The C<recurse()> method requires a C<callback> parameter specifying
|
|
the subroutine to invoke for each entry. It will be passed the
|
|
C<Path::Class> object as its first argument.
|
|
|
|
C<recurse()> also accepts two boolean parameters, C<depthfirst> and
|
|
C<preorder> that control the order of recursion. The default is a
|
|
preorder, breadth-first search, i.e. C<< depthfirst => 0, preorder => 1 >>.
|
|
At the time of this writing, all combinations of these two parameters
|
|
are supported I<except> C<< depthfirst => 0, preorder => 0 >>.
|
|
|
|
C<callback> is normally not required to return any value. If it
|
|
returns special constant C<Path::Class::Entity::PRUNE()> (more easily
|
|
available as C<< $item->PRUNE >>), no children of analyzed
|
|
item will be analyzed (mostly as if you set C<$File::Find::prune=1>). Of course
|
|
pruning is available only in C<preorder>, in postorder return value
|
|
has no effect.
|
|
|
|
=item $st = $file->stat()
|
|
|
|
Invokes C<< File::stat::stat() >> on this directory and returns a
|
|
C<File::stat> object representing the result.
|
|
|
|
=item $st = $file->lstat()
|
|
|
|
Same as C<stat()>, but if C<$file> is a symbolic link, C<lstat()>
|
|
stats the link instead of the directory the link points to.
|
|
|
|
=item $class = $file->file_class()
|
|
|
|
Returns the class which should be used to create file objects.
|
|
|
|
Generally overridden whenever this class is subclassed.
