Returns:
-
table
{attr1=value1, ...}
Or
-
value attribute value if attribute name was specify

- P
- exists (P)
-
Return path if path existing in file system.

- P
- isdir (P)
-
Return path if path refers to an existing directory.
Parameters:
- P
- isfile (P)
-
Return path if path refers to an existing file.
Parameters:
- P
- islink (P)
-
Return path if path refers to an existing symbolic link.
Parameters:
- P
- mkdir (P)
-
Create new directory.
This function can not create nested sub directories.
Parameters:
- P
- rmdir (P)
-
Remove empty directory.
Parameters:
- P
- chdir (P)
-
Change current work directory path.
Parameters:
- P
- copy (src, dst, force)
-
Copy one existed file.
Parameters:

- move (src, dst, flags)
-
Rename (move) existed file.
Parameters:
- src
- dst
- flags
- remove (P)
-
Remove file.
Parameters:
- P
- tmpdir ()
- Return path to system temp directory.
- touch (P, atime, ctime)
-
Set access and modification times of a file.
Parameters:
- P
- atime
- ctime
- dir ()
- Implimentation of lfs.dir
- each (option)
-
Implimentation of afx.findfile
Parameters:
- option each_options
Tables
- each_options
-
???
opt.file="./temp" -- match only this path
opt.file="./temp/" -- match all files in this path
This function do not expand filepath. So if we use "./*" mask and 'f' selector we get './some.file'.Fields:
- file string path and mask (default fs.currentdir() .. fs.DIR_SEP .. fs.ANY_MASK)
- param string - f fullpath and name - p path - n name - m mode - a attributes - z size - t atime - c ctime - l mtime (default "f")
- recurse boolean include subdirs (default false)
- reverse boolean direction of recursion - true subdirs at first - false subdirs at last - nil order undefined (default nil)
- delay boolean if true then iterate over snapshot of directory (default false)
- skipdirs boolean (default false)
- skipfiles boolean (default false)
- skipdots boolean (default true)
