Struct WalkEntry 

pub struct WalkEntry { /* private fields */ }

One entry yielded by a Walk: a path plus the file type the directory listing reported for it.

The file type is the one from fs::DirEntry::file_type, which does not follow symlinks — a symlink is neither is_dir nor is_file, so a symlinked directory is yielded as a plain entry and never descended into. That bounds the walk: a symlink cycle cannot make it run forever (CLAUDE.md’s guard-against-unbounded- growth rule).

Implementations

impl WalkEntry

pub fn path(&self) -> &Path

The entry’s full path — the walk’s root joined with everything descended through to reach it.

pub fn into_path(self) -> PathBuf

Consume the entry for its path, avoiding a clone when the path is all the caller wanted.

pub fn file_name(&self) -> &OsStr

The entry’s own file name (its last path component).

pub fn is_dir(&self) -> bool

Whether this entry is a directory the walk will descend into.

pub fn is_file(&self) -> bool

Whether this entry is a regular file. False for symlinks — see WalkEntry’s own doc.

pub fn file_type(&self) -> FileType

The unfollowed file type the directory listing reported.

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for WalkEntry

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.
