# fs-err Changelog


## 3.0.0


* Error messages now include the original message from `std::io::Error` by default ([#60]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/60). Previously this was exposed through the [`Error::source()`]https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/error/trait.Error.html#method.source method. For example, previously a message would look like:

  ```
  failed to open file `file.txt`
  ```

  and you would have to remember to print the source, or use a library like `anyhow` to print the full chain of source errors. The new error message includes the cause by default

  ```
  failed to open file `file.txt`: The system cannot find the file specified. (os error 2)
  ```

  Note that the original error is no longer exposed though [`Error::source()`]https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/error/trait.Error.html#method.source by default. If you need access to it, you can restore the previous behaviour with the `expose_original_error` feature flag.

* The `io_safety` feature flag has been removed, and this functionality is now always enabled on Rust versions which support it (1.63.0 and greater).

* Removed deprecated APIs: `File::from_options`, `tokio::symlink`

## 2.11.0


* Added the first line of the standard library documentation to each function's rustdocs, to make them more useful in IDEs ([#50]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/issues/45)
* Fixed the wrapper for `tokio::fs::symlink_dir()` on Windows being incorrectly named `symlink`. The old function is now deprecated and will be removed in the next breaking release.

## 2.10.0


* Add `fs_err_try_exists` to `std::path::Path` via extension trait. This feature requires Rust 1.63 or later. ([#48]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/48)

## 2.9.0


* Add wrappers for [`tokio::fs`]https://docs.rs/tokio/latest/tokio/fs/index.html ([#40]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/40).

## 2.8.1


* Fixed docs.rs build

## 2.8.0


* Implement I/O safety traits (`AsFd`/`AsHandle`, `Into<OwnedFd>`/`Into<OwnedHandle>`) for file. This feature requires Rust 1.63 or later and is gated behind the `io_safety` feature flag. ([#39]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/39)

## 2.7.0


* Implement `From<fs_err::File> for std::fs::File` ([#38]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/38)

## 2.6.0


* Added [`File::into_parts`]https://docs.rs/fs-err/2.6.0/fs_err/struct.File.html#method.into_parts and [`File::file_mut`]https://docs.rs/fs-err/2.6.0/fs_err/struct.File.html#method.file_mut to provide more access to the underlying `std::fs::File`.
* Fixed some typos in documention ([#33]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/33)

## 2.5.0

* Added `symlink` for unix platforms
* Added `symlink_file` and `symlink_dir` for windows
* Implemented os-specific extension traits for `File`
  - `std::os::unix::io::{AsRawFd, IntoRawFd}`
  - `std::os::windows::io::{AsRawHandle, IntoRawHandle}`
  - Added trait wrappers for `std::os::{unix, windows}::fs::FileExt` and implemented them for `fs_err::File`
* Implemented os-specific extension traits for `OpenOptions`
  - Added trait wrappers for `std::os::{unix, windows}::fs::OpenOptionsExt` and implemented them for `fs_err::OpenOptions`
* Improved compile times by converting arguments early and forwarding only a small number of types internally. There will be a slight performance hit only in the error case.
* Reduced trait bounds on generics from `AsRef<Path> + Into<PathBuf>` to either `AsRef<Path>` or `Into<PathBuf>`, making the functions more general.

## 2.4.0

* Added `canonicalize`, `hard link`, `read_link`, `rename`, `symlink_metadata` and `soft_link`. ([#25]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/25)
* Added aliases to `std::path::Path` via extension trait ([#26]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/26)
* Added `OpenOptions` ([#27]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/27)
* Added `set_permissions` ([#28]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/28)

## 2.3.0

* Added `create_dir` and `create_dir_all`. ([#19]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/19)
* Added `remove_file`, `remove_dir`, and `remove_dir_all`. ([#16]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/16)

## 2.2.0

* Added `metadata`. ([#15]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/15)

## 2.1.0

* Updated crate-level documentation. ([#8]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/8)
* Added `read_dir`, `ReadDir`, and `DirEntry`. ([#9]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/9)

## 2.0.1 (2020-02-22)

* Added `copy`. ([#7]https://github.com/andrewhickman/fs-err/pull/7)

## 2.0.0 (2020-02-19)
