fs-more

Convenient file and directory operations built on top of std::fs with improved error handling and in-depth configuration. Includes copying and moving files or directories with progress reporting.

Main features

• copy and move files or directories with:
  • in-depth configuration options (existing destination file behaviour, copying depth, IO buffer sizes, etc.), and
  • progress reporting, if wanted,
• scan directories (with options such as scan depth and symlink behaviour), and
• calculate file or directory sizes.

Usage

To add fs-more into your project, specify it as a dependency in your Cargo.toml file:

fs-more = "0.8.0"

Examples

Copying a file and getting updates on the progress:

use std::path::Path;

use fs_more::file::CollidingFileBehaviour;
use fs_more::file::FileCopyWithProgressOptions;
use fs_more::file::FileCopyFinished;


let source_path = Path::new("./source-file.txt");
let destination_path = Path::new("./destination-file.txt");

let finished_copy = fs_more::file::copy_file_with_progress(
    source_path,
    destination_path,
    FileCopyWithProgressOptions {
        colliding_file_behaviour: CollidingFileBehaviour::Abort,
        ..Default::default()
    },
    |progress| {
        let percent_copied =
            (progress.bytes_finished as f64) 
            / (progress.bytes_total as f64 * 100.0);

        println!("Copied {:.2}% of the file!", percent_copied);
    }
).unwrap();

match finished_copy {
    FileCopyFinished::Created { bytes_copied } => {
        println!("Copied {bytes_copied} bytes into a fresh file!");
    }
    FileCopyFinished::Overwritten { bytes_copied } => {
        println!("Copied {bytes_copied} bytes over an existing file!");
    }
    // ... (see documentation) ...
    _ => {}
};

Moving a directory and getting updates on the progress:

use std::path::Path;
use fs_more::directory::DirectoryMoveWithProgressOptions;
use fs_more::directory::DestinationDirectoryRule;


let source_path = Path::new("./source-directory");
let destination_path = Path::new("./destination-directory");

let moved = fs_more::directory::move_directory_with_progress(
    source_path,
    destination_path,
    DirectoryMoveWithProgressOptions {
        destination_directory_rule: DestinationDirectoryRule::AllowEmpty,
        ..Default::default()
    },
    |progress| {
        let percent_moved =
            (progress.bytes_finished as f64) / (progress.bytes_total as f64)
            * 100.0;
        println!(
            "Moved {:.2}% of the directory ({} files and {} directories so far).",
            percent_moved,
            progress.files_moved,
            progress.directories_created
        );
    }
).unwrap();

println!(
    "Moved {} bytes ({} files, {} directories)! Underlying strategy: {:?}.",
    moved.total_bytes_moved,
    moved.files_moved,
    moved.directories_moved,
    moved.strategy_used
);
