Event ‣ rmdir - chung-leong/zigar GitHub Wiki

Occurs when a system call is made to remove a directory.

Usage

const std = @import("std");
pub const rmdir = std.posix.rmdir;

import { __zigar, rmdir } from './event-rmdir-example-1.zig';
const { on } = __zigar;

on('rmdir', (evt) => {
  console.log(evt);
  return true;
})

rmdir('/var/mushroom/kingdom');

{ parent: null, path: 'var/mushroom/kingdom' }

Event fields:

• parent: object
  The parent directory, if the event is triggered by a call to unlinkat() (with the AT_REMOVEDIR flag) or std.fs.Dir.deleteDir(). It's null when an absolute path is used to reference the directory.
• path: string
  Relative path to the directory. No leading slash even when an absolute path is used.

Return value:

boolean|undefined
true if the operation succeeds or false otherwise. undefined means the listener declined to handle the event, allowing the operation to be handled by the actual file system.

Note:

The callback function can be async, provided that it's never invoked in the main thread.
