Methods

create(String target, {bool recursive = false}) Future<Link>
Creates a symbolic link in the file system.
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.
inherited
existsSync() bool
Synchronously checks whether the file system entity with this path exists.
inherited
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
rename(String newPath) Future<Link>
Renames this link.
override
renameSync(String newPath) Link
Synchronously renames this link.
override
Resolves the path of a file system object relative to the current working directory.
override
resolveSymbolicLinksSync() String
Resolves the path of a file system object relative to the current working directory.
override
stat() Future<FileStat>
Calls the operating system's stat() function on path.
inherited
statSync() FileStat
Synchronously calls the operating system's stat() function on path.
inherited
target() Future<String>
Gets the target of the link.
targetSync() String
Synchronously gets the target of the link.
toString() String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
update(String target) Future<Link>
Updates the link.
updateSync(String target) → void
Synchronously updates the link.
watch({int events = FileSystemEvent.all, bool recursive = false}) Stream<FileSystemEvent>
Start watching the FileSystemEntity for changes.
