megfile.fs module

megfile.fs.fs_abspath(path: str | BasePath | PathLike) str[source]

Return the absolute path of given path

Parameters:

path – Given path

Returns:

Absolute path of given path

megfile.fs.fs_access(path: str | BasePath | PathLike, mode: Access = Access.READ) bool[source]

Test if path has access permission described by mode Using os.access

Parameters:
  • path – Given path

  • mode – access mode

megfile.fs.fs_copy(src_path: str | BasePath | PathLike, dst_path: str | BasePath | PathLike, callback: Callable[[int], None] | None = None, followlinks: bool = False, overwrite: bool = True)[source]

File copy on file system Copy content (excluding meta date) of file on src_path to dst_path. dst_path must be a complete file name

Note

The differences between this function and shutil.copyfile are:

  1. If parent directory of dst_path doesn’t exist, create it

  2. Allow callback function, None by default.

    callback: Optional[Callable[[int], None]], the int data is means the size (in bytes) of the written data that is passed periodically

  3. This function is thread-unsafe

Parameters:
  • src_path – Given path

  • dst_path – Target file path

  • callback – Called periodically during copy, and the input parameter is the data size (in bytes) of copy since the last call

  • followlinks – False if regard symlink as file, else True

  • overwrite – whether or not overwrite file when exists, default is True

megfile.fs.fs_cwd() str[source]

Return current working directory

returns: Current working directory

megfile.fs.fs_exists(path: str | BasePath | PathLike, followlinks: bool = False) bool[source]

Test if the path exists

Note

The difference between this function and os.path.exists is that this function regard symlink as file. In other words, this function is equal to os.path.lexists

Parameters:
  • path – Given path

  • followlinks – False if regard symlink as file, else True

Returns:

True if the path exists, else False

megfile.fs.fs_expanduser(path: str | BasePath | PathLike)[source]

Expand ~ and ~user constructions. If user or $HOME is unknown, do nothing.

Calculate the md5 value of the file

Parameters:
  • path – Given path

  • recalculate – Ignore this parameter, just for compatibility

Parameters:

path – Given path

Returns:

File size

megfile.fs.fs_glob(path: str | BasePath | PathLike, recursive: bool = True, missing_ok: bool = True) List[str][source]

Return path list in ascending alphabetical order, in which path matches glob pattern

  1. If doesn’t match any path, return empty list

    Notice: glob.glob in standard library returns [‘a/’] instead of empty list when pathname is like a/**, recursive is True and directory ‘a’ doesn’t exist. fs_glob behaves like glob.glob in standard library under such circumstance.

  2. No guarantee that each path in result is different, which means:

    Assume there exists a path /a/b/c/b/d.txt use path pattern like /**/b/**/*.txt to glob, the path above will be returned twice

  3. ** will match any matched file, directory, symlink and ‘’ by default,

    when recursive is True

  4. fs_glob returns same as glob.glob(pathname, recursive=True)

    in ascending alphabetical order.

  5. Hidden files (filename stars with ‘.’) will not be found in the result

Parameters:
  • recursive – If False, ** will not search directory recursively

  • missing_ok – If False and target path doesn’t match any file, raise FileNotFoundError

Returns:

A list contains paths match pathname

Return a list contains tuples of path and file stat, in ascending alphabetical order, in which path matches glob pattern

  1. If doesn’t match any path, return empty list

    Notice: glob.glob in standard library returns [‘a/’] instead of empty list when pathname is like a/**, recursive is True and directory ‘a’ doesn’t exist. fs_glob behaves like glob.glob in standard library under such circumstance.

  2. No guarantee that each path in result is different, which means:

    Assume there exists a path /a/b/c/b/d.txt use path pattern like /**/b/**/*.txt to glob, the path above will be returned twice.

  3. ** will match any matched file, directory, symlink and ‘’ by default,

    when recursive is True

  4. fs_glob returns same as glob.glob(pathname, recursive=True)

    in ascending alphabetical order.

  5. Hidden files (filename stars with ‘.’) will not be found in the result

  2. No guarantee that each path in result is different, which means:
