File::PathInfo 1.27

File::PathInfo is a Perl module that provides an object oriented interface to things you want to know about a file, such as extension, absolute path, relative path, size, filename (without extension), etc. It is a sort of swissarmy knife of file info.<br /><br />A lot of times you need to know a file's absolute path, it's absolute location, maybe it's relative location to something else (like DOCUMENT ROOT), then you need to maybe know the relative path and relative location for a file. You need to know if a file is a directory, what it's extension is. You can commonly use regexes to do this.<br /><br />This module provides commonly needed variables.<br /><br />SYNOPSIS<br /><br /> use File::PathInfo;<br /> <br /> my $f = new File::PathInfo;<br /> <br /> $f->set('/home/myself/public_html/folder/stew.txt) or die('file does not exist');<br /> <br /> $f->is_text; # returns 1<br /> <br /> $f->ext; # returns 'txt'<br /> <br /> $f->abs_loc; # returns '/home/myself/public_html/folder'
