NAME

File::Fu::File - a filename object

SYNOPSIS

   use File::Fu;
 
   my $file = File::Fu->file("path/to/file");
   $file %= '.extension';
   $file->e and warn "$file exists";
 
   $file->l and warn "$file is a link to ", $file->readlink;
 
 

Constructor

new

   my $file = File::Fu::File->new($path);
 
   my $file = File::Fu::File->new(@path);
 
 

new_direct

   my $file = File::Fu::File->new_direct(
     dir => $dir_obj,
     file => $name
   );
 
 

Class Constants

dir_class

Return the corresponding dir class for this file object.
   my $dc = $class->dir_class;
 
 

is_dir

Always false for a file.

is_file

Always true for a file.

Parts

basename

Returns a new object representing only the file part of the name.
   my $obj = $file->basename;
 
 

Methods

stringify

   my $string = $file->stringify;
 
 

append

Append a string only to the filename part.
   $file->append('.gz');
 
   $file %= '.gz';
 
 

(Yeah... I tried to use .=, but overloading hates me.)

map

   $file->map(sub {...});
 
   $file &= sub {...};
 
 

absolute

Get an absolute name (without checking the filesystem.)
   my $abs = $file->absolute;
 
 

absolutely

Get an absolute name (resolved on the filesytem.)
   my $abs = $file->absolutely;
 
 

Doing stuff

open

Open the file with $mode ('<', 'r', '>', 'w', etc) --- see IO::File.
   my $fh = $file->open($mode, $permissions);
 
 

Throws an error if anything goes wrong or if the resulting filehandle happens to be a directory.

piped_open

Opens a read pipe. The file is appended to @command.
   my $fh = $file->piped_open(@command);
 
 

touch

Update the timestamp of a file (or create it.)
   $file->touch;
 
 
   my $link = $file->link($name);
 
 
   my $link = $file->symlink($linkname);
 
 

Note that symlinks are relative to where they live.

   my $dir = File::Fu->dir("foo");
   my $file = $dir+'file';
   # $file->symlink($dir+'link'); is a broken link
   my $link = $file->basename->symlink($dir+'link');
 
 
   $file->unlink;
 
 
   my $to = $file->readlink;
 
 

read

Read the entire file into memory (or swap!)
   my @lines = $file->read;
 
   my $file = $file->read;
 
 

If File::Slurp is available, options to read_file will be passed along. See ``read_file'' in File::Slurp.

write

Write the file's contents.
   $file->write($content);
 
 

If File::Slurp is available, $content may be either a scalar, scalar ref, or array ref.

   $file->write($content, %args);
 
 

copy

   $file->copy($dest);
