• orphan
  Orphan namespace of the module.
• own
  Own namespace of the module.
• path

• prelude
  Prelude to use essentials: use my_module::prelude::*.
• transitive
  Transitive TryFrom and TryInto.

Structs

• AbsolutePath

• CanonicalPath
  Caninical path.
• CurrentPath
  Symbolize current path.
• NativePath
  Caninical path.
• Path
  A slice of a path (akin to str).
• PathBuf
  An owned, mutable path (akin to String).
• Utf8Path
  A slice of a UTF-8 path (akin to str).
• Utf8PathBuf
  An owned, mutable UTF-8 path (akin to String).

Traits

• TransitiveTryFrom
  A trait to perform a transitive try_from conversion.
• TransitiveTryInto
  A trait to perform a transitive try_into conversion.

Functions

• canonicalize
  Returns the canonical, absolute form of the path with all intermediate components normalized and symbolic links resolved. This function does not touch fs.
• change_ext
  Replaces the existing path extension with the provided extension.
• ext
  Extracts the extension from the given path.
• exts
  Extracts multiple extensions from the given path.
• is_glob
  Determines if a given path string contains unescaped glob pattern characters.
• join_paths
  Joins a list of file system paths into a single absolute path.
• normalize
  Normalizes a given filesystem path by syntactically removing occurrences of . and properly handling .. components.
• path_common
  Finds the common directory path among a collection of paths.
• path_relative
  Computes the relative path from one path to another.
• rebase
  Rebase the file path relative to a new base path, optionally removing a common prefix.
• unique_folder_name
  Generates a unique folder name using the current system time, process ID, thread ID, and an internal thread-local counter.
• without_ext
  Extracts the parent directory and file stem (without extension) from the given path.
