Filetools

Simple crate for perfoming some small Path operations in Rust.

Offers the user the ability to:

• Create directories (single / multiple at a time)
• Check given filepaths match a pattern
• List all files / directories in a path
  • This can be just the files / directories inside the path root
  • This can also include files / directories in ALL subdirectories contained in the path
• List files / directories as above but filter the results based on a Filter Pattern
• Some general naming functions for creating PathBuf names

More will be added in the future but this should suffice for small path operations.

Usage

Add to your Cargo.toml

[dependencies]
filetools = "0.3.0"

Then import into your project:

use filetools::{FtFilter, list_nested_files_with_filter};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
    // Get all Lua files in the Neovim directory
    let root_path = "/home/user/.config/nvim";
    let filter = FtFilter::Raw("lua".to_string());
    let lua_files = list_nested_files_with_filter(&root_path, filter).await?;

    // Delete them all, we hate Lua
    for lua_file in lua_files.into_iter() {
        tokio::fs::remove_file(lua_file).await?;
    }

    Ok(())
}
