#Filesystem

Core ships with a filesystem abstraction that makes it easy to switch from a local filesystem to a remote one. The default driver that is shipped provides access to the local filesystem but using your own filesystem driver is just as easy.

#Filesystem Usage

#Determine if a file exists

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .exists("/home/ark/stats.txt");

#Get the contents of a file

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .get("/home/ark/stats.txt");

#Write the contents of a file

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .put("/home/ark/stats.txt", "Hello World");

#Delete the file at a given path

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .delete("/home/ark/stats.txt");

#Copy a file to a new location

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .copy("/home/ark/old.txt", "/home/ark/new.txt");

#Move a file to a new location

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .move("/home/ark/old.txt", "/home/ark/new.txt");

#Get the file size of a given file

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .size("/home/ark/stats.txt");

#Get the file’s last modification time

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .lastModified("/home/ark/stats.txt");

#Get an array of all files in a directory

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .files("/home/ark");

#Get all of the directories within a given directory

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .directories("/home/ark");

#Create a directory

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .makeDirectory("/home/ark");

#Recursively delete a directory

1app
2    .get<Services.Filesystem.FilesystemService>(Container.Identifiers.FilesystemService)
3    .deleteDirectory("/home/ark");
