Class PathScurryWin32

Support for for await

Alias for iterate

Note: As of Node 19, this is very slow, compared to other methods of walking. Consider using stream if memory overhead and backpressure are concerns, or walk if not.

Iterating over a PathScurry performs a synchronous walk.

Alias for iterateSync

Return the basename for the provided string or Path object

Return the cache of child entries. Exposed so subclasses can create child Path objects in a platform-specific way.

Get the depth of a provided path, string, or the cwd

Return the dirname for the provided string or Path object

Async generator form of walk

Note: As of Node 19, this is very slow, compared to other methods of walking, especially if most/all of the directory tree has been previously walked. Consider using stream if memory overhead and backpressure are concerns, or walk if not.

Call lstat() on the string or Path object, and update all known information that can be determined.

Note that unlike fs.lstat(), the returned value does not contain some information, such as mode, dev, nlink, and ino. If that information is required, you will need to call fs.lstat yourself.

If the Path refers to a nonexistent file, or if the lstat call fails for any reason, undefined is returned. Otherwise the updated Path object is returned.

Results are cached, and thus may be out of date if the filesystem is mutated.

synchronous lstat

Return an array of known child entries.

First argument may be either a string, or a Path object.

If the Path cannot or does not contain any children, then an empty array is returned.

Results are cached, and thus may be out of date if the filesystem is mutated.

Unlike fs.readdir(), the withFileTypes option defaults to true. Set { withFileTypes: false } to return strings.

synchronous readdir

Return the Path object or string path corresponding to the target of a symbolic link.

If the path is not a symbolic link, or if the readlink call fails for any reason, undefined is returned.

Result is cached, and thus may be outdated if the filesystem is mutated.

{withFileTypes} option defaults to false.

On success, returns a Path object if withFileTypes option is true, otherwise a string.

synchronous readlink

Return the Path object or string path corresponding to path as resolved by realpath(3).

If the realpath call fails for any reason, undefined is returned.

Result is cached, and thus may be outdated if the filesystem is mutated.

{withFileTypes} option defaults to false.

On success, returns a Path object if withFileTypes option is true, otherwise a string.

find the relative path from the cwd to the supplied path string or entry

find the relative path from the cwd to the supplied path string or entry, using / as the path delimiter, even on Windows.

Resolve one or more path strings to a resolved string

Same interface as require('path').resolve.

Much faster than path.resolve() when called multiple times for the same path, because the resolved Path objects are cached. Much slower otherwise.

Resolve one or more path strings to a resolved string, returning the posix path. Identical to .resolve() on posix systems, but on windows will return a forward-slash separated UNC path.

Same interface as require('path').resolve.

Much faster than path.resolve() when called multiple times for the same path, because the resolved Path objects are cached. Much slower otherwise.

Stream form of walk

Returns a Minipass stream that emits PathBase objects by default, or strings if { withFileTypes: false } is set in the options.

Synchronous form of stream

Returns a Minipass stream that emits PathBase objects by default, or strings if { withFileTypes: false } is set in the options.

Will complete the walk in a single tick if the stream is consumed fully. Otherwise, will pause as needed for stream backpressure.

Asynchronously walk the directory tree, returning an array of all path strings or Path objects found.

Note that this will be extremely memory-hungry on large filesystems. In such cases, it may be better to use the stream or async iterator walk implementation.

Synchronously walk the directory tree, returning an array of all path strings or Path objects found.
