pathbuf

pathbuf is a simple crate which provides the pathbuf macro to conveniently construct the Rust PathBuf type.

Example

use pathbuf::pathbuf;
use std::path::PathBuf;

fn main() {
	let p = pathbuf!["hello", "filename.txt"];

	let expected = {
		let mut temp = PathBuf::new();
		temp.push("hello");
		temp.push("filename.txt");
		temp
	};

	assert_eq!(p, expected);
}

pathbuf is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license, and is itself a reproduction of the hc_pathbuf crate found in Hipcheck, pulled out into its own distinct crate for reuse.

lib.rs:

pathbuf provides a single macro, pathbuf!, which gives a vec!-like syntax for constructing PathBufs.

Example

#
fn do_something(dir: &Path) {
    let file_name = pathbuf![dir, "filename.txt"];

    if file_name.exists() {
        // do something...
    }
}
