Trash is a Rust library that provides functionality to move files and folders to the operating system's Recycle Bin (or Trash or Rubbish Bin or what have you).
The library currently supports Windows and Linux. Contribution to MacOS support would be very much appretiated.
extern crate trash;
use std::fs::File;
fn main() {
// Let's create and remove a single file
File::create("remove-me").unwrap();
trash::remove("remove-me").unwrap();
assert!(File::open("remove-me").is_err());
// Now let's remove multiple files at once
let the_others = ["remove-me-too", "dont-forget-about-me-either"];
for name in the_others.iter() {
File::create(name).unwrap();
}
trash::remove_all(&the_others).unwrap();
for name in the_others.iter() {
assert!(File::open(name).is_err());
}
}
