Link objects are references to filesystem links.
- Implements
Constructors
- Link(String path)
-
Creates a Link object.
factory - Link.fromUri(Uri uri)
-
Creates a Link object.
factory
Properties
- absolute → Link
-
Returns a
Linkinstance whose path is the absolute path tothis.read-only - hashCode → int
-
Get a hash code for this object.
read-only, inherited - isAbsolute → bool
-
Returns a
boolindicating whether this object's path is absolute.read-only, inherited - parent → Directory
-
The directory containing
this. Ifthisis a root directory, returnsthis.read-only, inherited - path → String
-
read-only, inherited
- runtimeType → Type
-
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
read-only, inherited - uri → Uri
-
Returns a
Urirepresenting the file system entity's location.read-only, inherited
Operators
-
operator ==(
other) → bool -
The equality operator.

Methods
-
create(
String target, {bool recursive: false}) → Future<Link> -
Creates a symbolic link. Returns a
Future<Link>that completes with the link when it has been created. If the link exists, the future will complete with an error. -
createSync(
String target, {bool recursive: false}) → void -
Synchronously create the link. Calling createSync on an existing link will throw an exception.
-
delete(
{bool recursive: false}) → Future<FileSystemEntity> -
Deletes this FileSystemEntity.
inherited -
deleteSync(
{bool recursive: false}) → void -
Synchronously deletes this FileSystemEntity.
inherited -
exists(
) → Future<bool> -
Checks whether the file system entity with this path exists. Returns a
Future<bool>that completes with the result.inherited -
existsSync(
) → bool -
Synchronously checks whether the file system entity with this path exists.
inherited -
noSuchMethod(
Invocation invocation) → dynamic -
Invoked when a non-existent method or property is accessed.
inherited -
rename(
String newPath) → Future<Link> -
Renames this link. Returns a
Future<Link>that completes with a Link instance for the renamed link. -
renameSync(
String newPath) → Link -
Synchronously renames this link. Returns a Link instance for the renamed link.
-
resolveSymbolicLinks(
) → Future<String> -
Resolves the path of a file system object relative to the current working directory, resolving all symbolic links on the path and resolving all
..and.path segments. -
resolveSymbolicLinksSync(
) → String -
Resolves the path of a file system object relative to the current working directory, resolving all symbolic links on the path and resolving all
..and.path segments. -
stat(
) → Future<FileStat> -
Calls the operating system's stat() function on the path of this FileSystemEntity. Identical to
FileStat.stat(this.path).inherited -
statSync(
) → FileStat -
Synchronously calls the operating system's stat() function on the path of this FileSystemEntity. Identical to
FileStat.statSync(this.path).inherited -
target(
) → Future<String> -
Gets the target of the link. Returns a future that completes with the path to the target.
-
targetSync(
) → String -
Synchronously gets the target of the link. Returns the path to the target.
-
toString(
) → String -
Returns a string representation of this object.
inherited -
update(
String target) → Future<Link> -
Updates the link. Returns a
Future<Link>that completes with the link when it has been updated. Calling update on a non-existing link will complete its returned future with an exception. -
updateSync(
String target) → void -
Synchronously updates the link. Calling updateSync on a non-existing link will throw an exception.
-
watch(
{int events: FileSystemEvent.ALL, bool recursive: false}) → Stream<FileSystemEvent> -
Start watching the FileSystemEntity for changes.
