file_ext 0.7.4

Helper methods for filesystem-, path- and stdin-related manipulations.

Extension methods for filesystem and stdin-related manipulations

Features

Asynchronous and synchronous extension methods to:

• loop through filesystem entities (filtered by multiple Glob patterns in multiple directories) and a call user-defined function
• loop through all memory-based filesystems of all styles and call a user-defined function (useful for unit tests)
• loop through lines from stdin and call a user-defined function or read the whole stdin
• file path API extension:
  • adjust() - convert all path separators to OS-specific style
  • toPosix() - convert all path separators to POSIX style
  • getFullPath() - similar to canonicalize(), but preserves letter case
  • isHidden() - check whether a given filename starts with the dot or path contains a sub-directory starting with the dot (but not limited to the dots)
  • isPath() - check whether a given string contains directory component or not

Usage

See under the Example tab. All sample code files are under the sub-directory example.
