A simple library that makes dealing with Rust file system a breeze.
Any one who has done any file system related project in Rust will know that the Rust file system (std::fs) is a bit wonky (so say the least).
Brown library exports helpful functions which gives you a very simple API for creating managin and manipulating files,folder etc in the current working folder. - The API is almost final. I do not see any major changes in it. - More tests will be added and code will be improved; other than that the lib is complete. - Keep in mind that thorugh out this library you do not need to add "./", it is added automatically. - Please wait till version 1.0 for use in production - The word folder" and "directory" are used interchangebaly;there is no difference between a "folder" and "directory" in the documentation. They are both same.*
## Example
```rust use brown;
pub fn main(){ // create a folder (parent folder) for rest of the tests let pdir = brown::createdir("parent"); assert!(pdir.isok());
// create file safely let mdfile = brown::createfile("parent/mdfile.md"); assert!(mdfile.is_ok());
// Will over write a file even if exists already. let htmlfile = brown::createfilebrute("parent/htmlfile.html"); assert!(htmlfile.isok());
// create a folder inside previously created parent folder let testfolder = brown::createdir("parent/testfolder"); assert!(testfolder.is_ok());
// This will just get the files from the given folder root.It returns a Vec of DirEntry objects (std::fs::DirEntry). Many fn in this lib consume DirEntry object.
let allfiles = brown::getfiles("parent");
assert!(allfiles.isok());
// This will just get the folders from the given folder root. let alldirs = brown::getdirs("parent"); assert!(alldirs.isok());
// This will just get the files with .md extention from the given folder root. let allmdfiles = brown::getfilesbyext("parent","md"); assert!(allmdfiles.isok()); // This will get all entries from a folder let allentries = brown::getentries("parent"); assert!(allentries.isok());
}
```
