NAME

Filesys::POSIX::Userland::Test - Inode conditional tests

SYNOPSIS

    use Filesys::POSIX;
    use Filesys::POSIX::Mem;

    my $fs = Filesys::POSIX->new(Filesys::POSIX::Real->new,
        'noatime' => 1
    );

    $fs->import_module('Filesys::POSIX::Userland::Test');

    $fs->touch('foo');
    $fs->is_file('foo'); # returns 1
    $fs->is_dir('foo');  # returns 0

DESCRIPTION

This runtime addon module provides a series of boolean tests in the vein of test(1) that allow introspection of the nature of files without explicitly having to write boilerplate wrappers around $fs->stat.

This module exposes the inode-level tests in the Filesys::POSIX::Inode base class at a higher, file-oriented level.

TESTS

$FS->exists($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists.

$fs->is_file($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists and is a regular file ($S_IFREG).

$fs->is_dir($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists and is a directory ($S_IFDIR).

$fs->is_link($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists and is a symlink ($S_IFLNK).

$fs->is_char($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists and is a character device ($S_IFCHR).

$fs->is_block($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists and is a block device ($S_IFBLK).

$fs->is_fifo($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists and is a FIFO ($S_IFIFO).

$fs->is_readable($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists and has a readable bit set in the inode mode permissions field ($S_IRUSR | $S_IRGRP | $S_IROTH).

$fs->is_writable($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists and has a writable bit set in the inode mode permissions field ($S_IWUSR | $S_IWGRP | $S_IWOTH).

$fs->is_executable($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists and has an executable bit set in the inode mode permissions field ($S_IXUSR | $S_IXGRP | $S_IXOTH).

$fs->is_setuid($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists and has a setuid bit set in the inode mode permissions field ($S_SUID).

$fs->is_setgid($path)

Returns true if an inode indicated by $path exists and has a setgid bit set in the inode permissions field ($S_SGID).
