Struct wasi_common::fs::Dir

pub struct Dir<'ctx> { /* fields omitted */ }

A reference to an open directory on the filesystem.

TODO: Implement Dir-using versions of std::fs's free functions: copy, create_dir, create_dir_all, hard_link, metadata, read_link, read_to_string, remove_dir, remove_dir_all, remove_file, rename, set_permissions, symlink_metadata, and write.

Unlike std::fs, this API has no canonicalize, because absolute paths don't interoperate well with the capability-oriented security model.

Methods

impl<'ctx> Dir<'ctx>

pub unsafe fn from_raw_wasi_fd(ctx: &'ctx WasiCtx, fd: Fd) -> Self

Constructs a new instance of Self from the given raw WASI file descriptor.

pub fn open_file<P: AsRef<Path>>(&mut self, path: P) -> Result<File>

Attempts to open a file in read-only mode.

This corresponds to std::fs::File::open, but only accesses paths relative to and within self.

TODO: Not yet implemented. Refactor the hostcalls functions to split out the encoding/decoding parts from the underlying functionality, so that we can call into the underlying functionality directly.

pub fn open_file_with<P: AsRef<Path>>(
    &mut self,
    path: P,
    options: &OpenOptions
) -> Result<File>

Opens a file at path with the options specified by self.

This corresponds to std::fs::OpenOptions::open.

Instead of being a method on OpenOptions, this is a method on Dir, and it only accesses functions relative to and within self.

TODO: Not yet implemented.

pub fn open_dir<P: AsRef<Path>>(&mut self, path: P) -> Result<Self>

Attempts to open a directory.

TODO: Not yet implemented. See the comment in open_file.

pub fn create_file<P: AsRef<Path>>(&mut self, path: P) -> Result<File>

Opens a file in write-only mode.

This corresponds to std::fs::File::create, but only accesses paths relative to and within self.

TODO: Not yet implemented. See the comment in open_file.

pub fn read(&mut self) -> Result<ReadDir>

Returns an iterator over the entries within a directory.

This corresponds to std::fs::read_dir, but reads the directory represented by self.

TODO: Not yet implemented. We may need to wait until we have the ability to duplicate file descriptors before we can implement read safely. For now, use into_read instead.

pub fn into_read(self) -> ReadDir

Consumes self and returns an iterator over the entries within a directory in the manner of read.

pub fn read_file<P: AsRef<Path>>(&mut self, path: P) -> Result<Vec<u8>>

Read the entire contents of a file into a bytes vector.

This corresponds to std::fs::read, but only accesses paths relative to and within self.

pub fn read_dir<P: AsRef<Path>>(&mut self, path: P) -> Result<ReadDir>

Returns an iterator over the entries within a directory.

This corresponds to std::fs::read_dir, but only accesses paths relative to and within self.

Trait Implementations

impl<'ctx> Drop for Dir<'ctx>

fn drop(&mut self)

Executes the destructor for this type.
