Struct gix_features::fs::walkdir::DirEntryGeneric

pub struct DirEntryGeneric<C>
where
    C: ClientState,
{
    pub depth: usize,
    pub file_name: OsString,
    pub file_type: FileType,
    pub client_state: <C as ClientState>::DirEntryState,

    /* private fields */
}

Available on crate feature fs-walkdir-parallel only.

Representation of a file or directory.

This representation does not wrap a std::fs::DirEntry. Instead it copies file_name, file_type, and optionally metadata out of the underlying std::fs::DirEntry. This allows it to quickly drop the underlying file descriptor.

Fields

depth: usize

Depth of this entry relative to the root directory where the walk started.

file_name: OsString

File name of this entry without leading path component.

file_type: FileType

File type for the file/directory that this entry points at.

client_state: <C as ClientState>::DirEntryState

Field where clients can store state from within the The process_read_dir callback.

parent_path: Arc<Path>

Path used by this entry’s parent to read this entry.

read_children_path: Option<Arc<Path>>

Path that will be used to read child entries. This is automatically set for directories. The process_read_dir callback may set this field to None to skip reading the contents of a particular directory.

read_children_error: Option<Error>

If read_children_path is set and resulting fs::read_dir generates an error then that error is stored here.

Implementations

impl<C> DirEntry<C>

where C: ClientState,

pub fn file_type(&self) -> FileType

Return the file type for the file that this entry points to.

If this is a symbolic link and follow_links is true, then this returns the type of the target.

This never makes any system calls.

pub fn file_name(&self) -> &OsStr

Return the file name of this entry.

If this entry has no file name (e.g., /), then the full path is returned.

pub fn depth(&self) -> usize

Returns the depth at which this entry was created relative to the root.

The smallest depth is 0 and always corresponds to the path given to the new function on WalkDir. Its direct descendants have depth 1, and their descendants have depth 2, and so on.

pub fn path(&self) -> PathBuf

Path to the file/directory represented by this entry.

The path is created by joining parent_path with file_name.

pub fn path_is_symlink(&self) -> bool

Returns true if and only if this entry was created from a symbolic link. This is unaffected by the follow_links setting.

When true, the value returned by the path method is a symbolic link name. To get the full target path, you must call std::fs::read_link(entry.path()).

pub fn metadata(&self) -> Result<Metadata, Error>

Return the metadata for the file that this entry points to.

This will follow symbolic links if and only if the WalkDir value has follow_links enabled.

Platform behavior

This always calls std::fs::symlink_metadata.

If this entry is a symbolic link and follow_links is enabled, then std::fs::metadata is called instead.

Errors

Similar to std::fs::metadata, returns errors for path values that the program does not have permissions to access or if the path does not exist.

pub fn parent_path(&self) -> &Path

Reference to the path of the directory containing this entry.
