Type Checks
Usage
(import (directory-utils checks))
dirname?
check-dirname
error-dirname
- dirname? OBJprocedure
- check-dirname LOCATION OBJECT #!optional ARGNAMprocedure
- error-dirname LOCATION OBJECT #!optional ARGNAMprocedure
check-directory
error-directory
- check-directory LOCATION OBJECT #!optional ARGNAMprocedure
- error-directory LOCATION OBJECT #!optional ARGNAMprocedure
Does the OBJECT name an existing directory>
Does not reexport (chicken file posix) directory?.
pathname?
check-pathname
error-pathname
- pathname? OBJprocedure
- check-pathname LOCATION OBJECT #!optional ARGNAMprocedure
- error-pathname LOCATION OBJECT #!optional ARGNAMprocedure
Does not verify existence of the file, just whether the pathname has a directory and/or file component.
filename?
check-filename
error-filename
- filename? OBJprocedure
- check-filename LOCATION OBJECT #!optional ARGNAMprocedure
- error-filename LOCATION OBJECT #!optional ARGNAMprocedure
Does not verify existence of the file, just whether it has a directory component.
Dotted Files & Directories
Does not verify the existence of the subject directory or file.
Usage
(import (directory-utils dotted))
dot-prefix-dirname?
- dot-prefix-dirname? DIRNAMEprocedure
DIRNAME begins with a dot-prefix-dirname?
dot-suffix-dirname?
- dot-suffix-dirname? DIRNAMEprocedure
DIRNAME ends with a dot-prefix-dirname?
dot-filename?
- dot-filename? FILENAMEprocedure
Does the FILENAME name a file with a dot-name?
dot-pathname?
- dot-pathname? PATHNAMEprocedure
Is any directory in the PATHNAME a dot-filename?
Does not verify existence of the file!
remove-dotfiles
- remove-dotfiles FILESprocedure
Remove dot files from a directory list. Useful with glob.
Directory Operations
Usage
(import (directory-utils operations))
directory-foldl
- directory-foldl DIRECTORY FUNCTION SEED #!optional SHOW-DOTFILES?procedure
Invokes FUNCTION on the recursive value from SEED and each filename in the DIRECTORY and . Returns the final value.
- FUNCTION
- (* filename -> *).
- SHOW-DOTFILES?
- boolean ; include files with a "." prefix ; Default #f.
Note that only the filename is passed and not the complete pathname. The "." and ".." filenames are not supplied no matter the SHOW-DOTFILES? setting.
On a Windows platform hidden files have a hidden attribute so this routine is rather *nix centric.
directory-unfold
- directory-unfold DIRECTORY TEST NEXT SEED #!optional SHOW-DOTFILES?procedure
Walks DIRECTORY, visiting subdirectories based on TEST, and calling NEXT on the recursive value from SEED and each pathname in the directories. Returns the final value.
Directories for which TEST fails are handled by NEXT. The passed pathname is a directory-separator suffixed dirname; example "b/".
- TEST
- (pathname -> 'a ; called with the full pathname.
- NEXT
- ('a pathname -> 'a) ; called with the full pathname.
- SEED
- 'a.
- SHOW-DOTFILES?
- boolean ; include files with a "." prefix ; Default #f.
create-pathname-directory
- create-pathname-directory PATHNAMEprocedure
Ensures the directory component of PATHNAME exist.
Like the *nix `"mkdir -p `dirname PATHNAME`" command.
make-program-filename
- make-program-filename COMMANDprocedure
Returns the platform specific form of an executable command filename.
On Windows the "exe" extension is added unless an extension is already present. Does nothing otherwise.
make-shell-filename
- make-shell-filename COMMANDprocedure
Returns the platform specific form of a shell command filename.
On Windows the "bat" extension is added unless an extension is already present. Otherwise conditionally adds the "sh" extension.
file-exists-in-directory?
- (file-exists-in-directory? FILENAME [DIRECTORY ...]) -> (or #f pathname)procedure
Returns the pathname when FILENAME exists in the DIRECTORY ..., otherwise #f.
DIRECTORY ... as make-pathname.
When only the FILENAME argument supplied then the same as file-exists?.
find-file-pathnames
- (find-file-pathnames FILENAME [DIRECTORY | DIRECTORY-LIST] ...) -> (or #f (list-of pathname))procedure
Returns a list of all pathnames found for FILENAME in the supplied directory/directories, or #f when not found.
The list of pathnames is in the same relative order as that of the directory parameter(s).
find-program-pathnames
- (find-program-pathnames COMMAND-NAME [DIRECTORY | DIRECTORY-LIST] ...) -> (or #f (list-of pathname))procedure
Returns a list of all pathnames found for COMMAND-NAME in the supplied directory/directories, or #f when not found.
Uses make-program-filename to make a filename.
On Windows also uses make-shell-filename to make a filename.
Does not ensure that the file is executable!
find-command-pathnames
- find-command-pathnames COMMAND-NAME #!optional ENVIRONMENT-VARIABLEprocedure
Returns the pathnames of COMMAND-NAME in the ENVIRONMENT-VARIABLE where the file exists, or #f when nothing found.
The default ENVIRONMENT-VARIABLE is "PATH".
Uses the platform specific "PATH" environment variable element separator - a Windows #\;, and a *nix #\:.
which-command-pathname
- which-command-pathname COMMAND-NAME #!optional ENVIRONMENT-VARIABLEprocedure
Same as which-command-pathnames but returns the first pathname only.
Like the *nix `which COMMAND-NAME` command.
Directory Stack
Usage
(import (directory-utils stack))
directory-utility-stack
- directory-utility-stack #!optional STACKparameter
Which stack to use for directory stack operations.
stack is from stack.
push-directory
- push-directory DIRECTORY #!optional STACKprocedure
Push the current directory and change to the DIRECTORY.
- DIRECTORY
- string ; pathname
- STACK
- stack ; optional; default (directory-utility-stack)
pop-directory
- pop-directory #!optional STACKprocedure
Pop the last directory and change to it.
- STACK
- stack ; optional; default (directory-utility-stack)
pop-toplevel-directory
- pop-toplevel-directory #!optional STACKprocedure
Pop the earliest directory and change to it.
- STACK
- stack ; optional; default (directory-utility-stack)
