File manager, only inside Rust 🦀

rfm is a convenient and intuitive way to interact with files on OS. Function naming is similar to Unix commands (ls, mkdir, mv, rm, cp, touch etc.), so you can easily figure out how to use it.

Installation

Add the latest rfm version to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
rfm = "X.Y.Z" #replace it with the current version

Usage

For example:

extern crate rfm;
use std::{
    io::Result,
    path::{Path, PathBuf},
};

fn main() -> Result<()> {
    let dir_from_1 = Path::new("./foo").to_path_buf();
    let dir_from_2 = Path::new("./bar").to_path_buf();

    let dir_to = Path::new("./baz").to_path_buf();

    // check dir for existing files/dirs
    if rfm::ls(&dir_to)?.len() > 0 {
        // clean dir
        rfm::clean(&vec![&dir_to])?;
    }

    let need_to_move: Vec<&PathBuf> = vec![&dir_from_1, &dir_from_2];
    // Move some files/dirs
    rfm::mv(&need_to_move, &dir_to)?;

    Ok(())
}
