inspect_path

inspect_path is a small cross-platform Rust crate for inspecting filesystem paths. It can determine whether a path refers to a fixed, removable, or remote filesystem, and can optionally probe whether that path is currently mounted or disconnected.

The crate works on both Windows and Unix-like systems and hides platform-specific details behind a simple, consistent API.

Features

Detects filesystem path type
- Fixed disks
- Removable media
- Network / remote mounts
- CD-ROM and RAM disks
Identifies remote filesystem types when possible
- Windows shares (SMB / CIFS)
- NFS
- AFS
Allows probing a path to determine mount status
Platform-specific implementations with a shared public API

Platform Support

Windows

Fixed drives
Removable drives
CD-ROM drives
RAM disks
Network shares (UNC paths and mapped drives)

Unix / Linux

Local filesystems (ext4, xfs, btrfs, etc.)
Network filesystems (NFS, SMB/CIFS, AFS)
tmpfs and optical media
Uses filesystem magic numbers via statfs

Some filesystem details cannot be inferred on all platforms (for example, Linux cannot always distinguish NTFS backing devices).

Usage

Inspecting a path

use std::path::Path;
use inspect_path::inspect_path;

let info = inspect_path(Path::new(r"C:\")).unwrap();

if info.is_fixed() {
    println!("This is a fixed filesystem");
}
