NAME
IO::Dirent - Access to dirent structs returned by readdirSYNOPSIS
use IO::Dirent; opendir DIR, "/usr/local/foo"; my @entries = readdirent(DIR); closedir DIR; print $entries[0]->{name}, "\n"; print $entries[0]->{type}, "\n"; print $entries[0]->{inode}, "\n";
DESCRIPTION
Returns a list of hashrefs. Each hashref contains the name of the directory entry, its inode for the filesystem it resides on and its type (if available). If the file type or inode are not available, it won't be there!IO::Dirent exports the following symbols by default:
readdirent
The following tags may be exported to your namespace:
ALL
which includes readdirent and the following symbols:
DT_UNKNOWN DT_FIFO DT_CHR DT_DIR DT_BLK DT_REG DT_LNK DT_SOCK DT_WHT
These symbols can be used to test the file type returned by readdirent in the following manner:
for my $entry ( readdirent(DIR) ) { next unless $entry->{'type'} == DT_LNK; print $entry->{'name'} . " is a symbolic link.\n"; }
For platforms that do not implement file type in its dirent struct, readdirent will return a hashref with a single key/value of 'name' and the filename (effectively the same as readdir). This is subject to change, if I can implement some of the to do items below.
CAVEATS
This was written on FreeBSD which implements a robust (but somewhat non-standard) dirent struct and which includes a file type entry. I have plans to make this module more portable and useful by doing a stat on each directory entry to find the file type and inode number when the dirent.h does not implement it otherwise.Improvements and additional ports are welcome.
TO DO
- •
- For platforms that do not implement a dirent struct with file type, do a stat on the entry and populate the structure anyway.
- •
- Consider making readdirent return a list of objects instead of a list of hashrefs. Nah...
- •
- Do some memory profiling (I'm not sure if I have any leaks or not).
