# Struct std::path::Path 1.0.0 [−] [src]

    pub struct Path { /* fields omitted */ }

A slice of a path (akin to `str`).

This type supports a number of operations for inspecting a path, including breaking the path into its components (separated by `/` on Unix and by either `/` or `\` on Windows), extracting the file name, determining whether the path is absolute, and so on.

This is an unsized type, meaning that it must always be used behind a pointer like `&` or `Box`. For an owned version of this type, see `PathBuf`.

More details about the overall approach can be found in the module documentation.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;
    use std::ffi::OsStr;

    // Note: this example does work on Windows
    let path = Path::new("./foo/bar.txt");

    let parent = path.parent();
    assert_eq!(parent, Some(Path::new("./foo")));

    let file_stem = path.file_stem();
    assert_eq!(file_stem, Some(OsStr::new("bar")));

    let extension = path.extension();
    assert_eq!(extension, Some(OsStr::new("txt")));Run

## Methods

### `impl Path`
[src]

#### `pub fn new<S: AsRef<OsStr> + ?Sized>(s: &S) -> &Path`
[src]

Directly wraps a string slice as a `Path` slice.

This is a cost-free conversion.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    Path::new("foo.txt");Run

You can create `Path`s from `String`s, or even other `Path`s:

    use std::path::Path;

    let string = String::from("foo.txt");
    let from_string = Path::new(&string);
    let from_path = Path::new(&from_string);
    assert_eq!(from_string, from_path);Run

#### `pub fn as_os_str(&self) -> &OsStr`
[src]

Yields the underlying `OsStr` slice.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    let os_str = Path::new("foo.txt").as_os_str();
    assert_eq!(os_str, std::ffi::OsStr::new("foo.txt"));Run

#### `pub fn to_str(&self) -> Option<&str>`
[src]

Yields a `&str` slice if the `Path` is valid unicode.

This conversion may entail doing a check for UTF-8 validity.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    let path = Path::new("foo.txt");
    assert_eq!(path.to_str(), Some("foo.txt"));Run

#### `pub fn to_string_lossy(&self) -> Cow<str>`
[src]

Converts a `Path` to a `Cow<str>`.

Any non-Unicode sequences are replaced with U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER.

# Examples

Calling `to_string_lossy` on a `Path` with valid unicode:

    use std::path::Path;

    let path = Path::new("foo.txt");
    assert_eq!(path.to_string_lossy(), "foo.txt");Run

Had `path` contained invalid unicode, the `to_string_lossy` call might have returned `"fo�.txt"`.

#### `pub fn to_path_buf(&self) -> PathBuf`
[src]

Converts a `Path` to an owned `PathBuf`.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    let path_buf = Path::new("foo.txt").to_path_buf();
    assert_eq!(path_buf, std::path::PathBuf::from("foo.txt"));Run

#### `pub fn is_absolute(&self) -> bool`
[src]

Returns `true` if the `Path` is absolute, i.e. if it is independent of the current directory.

- On Unix, a path is absolute if it starts with the root, so `is_absolute` and `has_root` are equivalent.

- On Windows, a path is absolute if it has a prefix and starts with the root: `c:\windows` is absolute, while `c:temp` and `\temp` are not.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    assert!(!Path::new("foo.txt").is_absolute());Run

#### `pub fn is_relative(&self) -> bool`
[src]

Returns `true` if the `Path` is relative, i.e. not absolute.

See `is_absolute`'s documentation for more details.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    assert!(Path::new("foo.txt").is_relative());Run

#### `pub fn has_root(&self) -> bool`
[src]

Returns `true` if the `Path` has a root.

- On Unix, a path has a root if it begins with `/`.

- On Windows, a path has a root if it:

  - has no prefix and begins with a separator, e.g. `\\windows`
  - has a prefix followed by a separator, e.g. `c:\windows` but not `c:windows`
  - has any non-disk prefix, e.g. `\\server\share`

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    assert!(Path::new("/etc/passwd").has_root());Run

#### `pub fn parent(&self) -> Option<&Path>`
[src]

Returns the `Path` without its final component, if there is one.

Returns `None` if the path terminates in a root or prefix.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    let path = Path::new("/foo/bar");
    let parent = path.parent().unwrap();
    assert_eq!(parent, Path::new("/foo"));

    let grand_parent = parent.parent().unwrap();
    assert_eq!(grand_parent, Path::new("/"));
    assert_eq!(grand_parent.parent(), None);Run

#### `pub fn file_name(&self) -> Option<&OsStr>`
[src]

Returns the final component of the `Path`, if there is one.

If the path is a normal file, this is the file name. If it's the path of a directory, this is the directory name.

Returns `None` If the path terminates in `..`.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;
    use std::ffi::OsStr;

    assert_eq!(Some(OsStr::new("bin")), Path::new("/usr/bin/").file_name());
    assert_eq!(Some(OsStr::new("foo.txt")), Path::new("tmp/foo.txt").file_name());
    assert_eq!(Some(OsStr::new("foo.txt")), Path::new("foo.txt/.").file_name());
    assert_eq!(Some(OsStr::new("foo.txt")), Path::new("foo.txt/.//").file_name());
    assert_eq!(None, Path::new("foo.txt/..").file_name());
    assert_eq!(None, Path::new("/").file_name());Run

#### `pub fn strip_prefix<'a, P: ?Sized>(
&'a self,
base: &'a P
) -> Result<&'a Path, StripPrefixError> where
P: AsRef<Path>,`
1.7.0
[src]

Returns a path that, when joined onto `base`, yields `self`.

# Errors

If `base` is not a prefix of `self` (i.e. `starts_with` returns `false`), returns `Err`.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    let path = Path::new("/test/haha/foo.txt");

    assert_eq!(path.strip_prefix("/test"), Ok(Path::new("haha/foo.txt")));
    assert_eq!(path.strip_prefix("test").is_ok(), false);
    assert_eq!(path.strip_prefix("/haha").is_ok(), false);Run

#### `pub fn starts_with<P: AsRef<Path>>(&self, base: P) -> bool`
[src]

Determines whether `base` is a prefix of `self`.

Only considers whole path components to match.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    let path = Path::new("/etc/passwd");

    assert!(path.starts_with("/etc"));

    assert!(!path.starts_with("/e"));Run

#### `pub fn ends_with<P: AsRef<Path>>(&self, child: P) -> bool`
[src]

Determines whether `child` is a suffix of `self`.

Only considers whole path components to match.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    let path = Path::new("/etc/passwd");

    assert!(path.ends_with("passwd"));Run

#### `pub fn file_stem(&self) -> Option<&OsStr>`
[src]

Extracts the stem (non-extension) portion of `self.file_name`.

The stem is:

- `None`, if there is no file name;
- The entire file name if there is no embedded `.`;
- The entire file name if the file name begins with `.` and has no other `.`s within;
- Otherwise, the portion of the file name before the final `.`

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    let path = Path::new("foo.rs");

    assert_eq!("foo", path.file_stem().unwrap());Run

#### `pub fn extension(&self) -> Option<&OsStr>`
[src]

Extracts the extension of `self.file_name`, if possible.

The extension is:

- `None`, if there is no file name;
- `None`, if there is no embedded `.`;
- `None`, if the file name begins with `.` and has no other `.`s within;
- Otherwise, the portion of the file name after the final `.`

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    let path = Path::new("foo.rs");

    assert_eq!("rs", path.extension().unwrap());Run

#### `pub fn join<P: AsRef<Path>>(&self, path: P) -> PathBuf`
[src]

Creates an owned `PathBuf` with `path` adjoined to `self`.

See `PathBuf::push` for more details on what it means to adjoin a path.

# Examples

    use std::path::{Path, PathBuf};

    assert_eq!(Path::new("/etc").join("passwd"), PathBuf::from("/etc/passwd"));Run

#### `pub fn with_file_name<S: AsRef<OsStr>>(&self, file_name: S) -> PathBuf`
[src]

Creates an owned `PathBuf` like `self` but with the given file name.

See `PathBuf::set_file_name` for more details.

# Examples

    use std::path::{Path, PathBuf};

    let path = Path::new("/tmp/foo.txt");
    assert_eq!(path.with_file_name("bar.txt"), PathBuf::from("/tmp/bar.txt"));

    let path = Path::new("/tmp");
    assert_eq!(path.with_file_name("var"), PathBuf::from("/var"));Run

#### `pub fn with_extension<S: AsRef<OsStr>>(&self, extension: S) -> PathBuf`
[src]

Creates an owned `PathBuf` like `self` but with the given extension.

See `PathBuf::set_extension` for more details.

# Examples

    use std::path::{Path, PathBuf};

    let path = Path::new("foo.rs");
    assert_eq!(path.with_extension("txt"), PathBuf::from("foo.txt"));Run

#### `pub fn components(&self) -> Components`
[src]

Produces an iterator over the `Component`s of the path.

When parsing the path, there is a small amount of normalization:

- Repeated separators are ignored, so `a/b` and `a//b` both have `a` and `b` as components.

- Occurrences of `.` are normalized away, except if they are at the beginning of the path. For example, `a/./b`, `a/b/`, `a/b/.` and `a/b` all have `a` and `b` as components, but `./a/b` starts with an additional `CurDir` component.

Note that no other normalization takes place; in particular, `a/c` and `a/b/../c` are distinct, to account for the possibility that `b` is a symbolic link (so its parent isn't `a`).

# Examples

    use std::path::{Path, Component};
    use std::ffi::OsStr;

    let mut components = Path::new("/tmp/foo.txt").components();

    assert_eq!(components.next(), Some(Component::RootDir));
    assert_eq!(components.next(), Some(Component::Normal(OsStr::new("tmp"))));
    assert_eq!(components.next(), Some(Component::Normal(OsStr::new("foo.txt"))));
    assert_eq!(components.next(), None)Run

#### `pub fn iter(&self) -> Iter`
[src]

Produces an iterator over the path's components viewed as `OsStr` slices.

For more information about the particulars of how the path is separated into components, see `components`.

# Examples

    use std::path::{self, Path};
    use std::ffi::OsStr;

    let mut it = Path::new("/tmp/foo.txt").iter();
    assert_eq!(it.next(), Some(OsStr::new(&path::MAIN_SEPARATOR.to_string())));
    assert_eq!(it.next(), Some(OsStr::new("tmp")));
    assert_eq!(it.next(), Some(OsStr::new("foo.txt")));
    assert_eq!(it.next(), None)Run

#### `pub fn display(&self) -> Display`
[src]

Returns an object that implements `Display` for safely printing paths that may contain non-Unicode data.

# Examples

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    let path = Path::new("/Minas/tirith");
    let metadata = path.symlink_metadata().expect("symlink_metadata call failed");
    println!("{:?}", metadata.file_type());Run

#### `pub fn canonicalize(&self) -> Result<PathBuf>`
1.5.0
[src]

Returns the canonical form of the path with all intermediate components normalized and symbolic links resolved.

    let path = Path::new("/laputa/sky_castle.rs");
    let path_link = path.read_link().expect("read_link call failed");Run

#### `pub fn read_dir(&self) -> Result<ReadDir>`
1.5.0
[src]

Returns an iterator over the entries within a directory.

The iterator will yield instances of `io::Result``<``DirEntry``>`. New errors may be encountered after an iterator is initially constructed.

This is an alias to `fs::read_dir`.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;

    let path = Path::new("/laputa");
    for entry in path.read_dir().expect("read_dir call failed") {

        }
    }Run

#### `pub fn exists(&self) -> bool`
1.5.0
[src]

Returns whether the path points at an existing entity.

This function will traverse symbolic links to query information about the destination file. In case of broken symbolic links this will return `false`.

# Examples

    use std::path::Path;
    assert_eq!(Path::new("does_not_exist.txt").exists(), false);Run

# See Also

This is a convenience function that coerces errors to false. If you want to check errors, call fs::metadata.

#### `pub fn is_file(&self) -> bool`

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
