Getting list of filenames in the box about go.rice HOT 12 CLOSED

Do you mean (*File).Readdirnames() or (*Box).Readdirnames(), as shown in the example?
Is (*File).Readdir() a solution for you?

from go.rice.

(*Box).Readdirnames(), similar to the (*os.File).Readdirnames(). How can I use (*File).Readdir()? f, _ := box.Open("."); fi, _ := f.Readdir(-1)?

from go.rice.

I think I implemented this already, but made it private.
I think it just needs renaming from (*Box).readDirNames(path string) ([]string, error) to (*Box).Readdirnames(path string) ([]string, error) to expose it as part of the public API.

I'd seen it, but the signatures differ. (*os.File).Readdirnames() accepts int. What path am I supposed to pass to this method?

from go.rice.

If you're just looking to get a list for the root of the box, use "" as the argument.

from go.rice.

@PaulMaddox That will do, I think, assuming the method is public.

from go.rice.

Wouldn't it then be better to add Readdirnames(int) on *File instead of *Box ?

from go.rice.

That way it can also be used for non-root paths..

Perhaps. I somewhat dislike the idea of naming the method the same, but changing its signature. If I could call Open(".") (or Open("")) on the box, of course.

from go.rice.

Signature I proposed is the same right? (*File).Readdirnames(n int) ([]string, error)

from go.rice.

@GeertJohan
Yes.

from go.rice.

Okay. I'd be happy to take a PR for this.
