lib.rs

1//! Rust-native port of the LuaFileSystem (lfs) module — Phase G-1.
2//!
3//! Provides the 8 lfs functions LuaRocks actually uses:
4//!
5//! | function                         | std::fs / std::env equivalent      |
6//! |----------------------------------|------------------------------------|
7//! | `lfs.attributes(path [, req])`   | `std::fs::metadata(path)`          |
8//! | `lfs.dir(path)`                  | `std::fs::read_dir(path)`          |
9//! | `lfs.mkdir(path)`                | `std::fs::create_dir(path)`        |
10//! | `lfs.rmdir(path)`                | `std::fs::remove_dir(path)`        |
11//! | `lfs.chdir(path)`                | `std::env::set_current_dir(path)`  |
12//! | `lfs.currentdir()`               | `std::env::current_dir()`          |
13//! | `lfs.touch(path [,a [,m]])`      | `filetime::set_file_times`         |
14//! | `lfs.link(old, new [, sym])`     | `std::fs::hard_link` / `symlink`   |
15//!
16//! Out of scope (LuaRocks does not exercise these): `lfs.lock`, `lfs.unlock`,
17//! `lfs.symlinkattributes`, `lfs.setmode`.
18//!
19//! Registration: the entry point [`luaopen_lfs`] builds and returns the lfs
20//! table. `lua-cli` installs that function in `package.preload.lfs` after
21//! `open_libs` and before user code runs, so `require('lfs')` resolves via
22//! the preload searcher and the rest of the lfs API ends up where stock lfs
23//! users expect to find it.
