Type used to handle the filesystem.

Directory type. It is used to manage directories and their content (not restricted to the project folder).
|
|
When creating a new [Directory], it must be explicitly opened using [method open] before most methods can be used. However, [method file_exists] and [method dir_exists] can be used without opening a directory. If so, they use a path relative to [code]res://[/code].
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] Many resources types are imported (e.g. textures or sound files), and their source asset will not be included in the exported game, as only the imported version is used. Use [ResourceLoader] to access imported resources.
|
|
Here is an example on how to iterate through the files of a directory:
|
|
[codeblocks]
|
|
[gdscript]
|
|
func dir_contents(path):
|
|
var dir = Directory.new()
|
|
if dir.open(path) == OK:
|
|
dir.list_dir_begin()
|
|
var file_name = dir.get_next()
|
|
while file_name != "":
|
|
if dir.current_is_dir():
|
|
print("Found directory: " + file_name)
|
|
else:
|
|
print("Found file: " + file_name)
|
|
file_name = dir.get_next()
|
|
else:
|
|
print("An error occurred when trying to access the path.")
|
|
[/gdscript]
|
|
[csharp]
|
|
public void DirContents(string path)
|
|
{
|
|
var dir = new Directory();
|
|
if (dir.Open(path) == Error.Ok)
|
|
{
|
|
dir.ListDirBegin();
|
|
string fileName = dir.GetNext();
|
|
while (fileName != "")
|
|
{
|
|
if (dir.CurrentIsDir())
|
|
{
|
|
GD.Print("Found directory: " + fileName);
|
|
}
|
|
else
|
|
{
|
|
GD.Print("Found file: " + fileName);
|
|
}
|
|
fileName = dir.GetNext();
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
else
|
|
{
|
|
GD.Print("An error occurred when trying to access the path.");
|
|
}
|
|
}
|

|
|
On macOS, returns the path to the mounted volume passed as an argument.

<method name="get_drive_count">
|
|
<return type="int" />
|
|

|
|
<method name="get_files">
|
|
<return type="PackedStringArray" />
|
|
<description>
|
|
Returns a [PackedStringArray] containing filenames of the directory contents, excluding directories. The array is sorted alphabetically.
|
|
Affected by [member include_hidden].
|
|
</description>
|
|
</method>
|
|
<method name="get_next">
|
|
<return type="String" />
|
|
<description>
|
|
Returns the next element (file or directory) in the current directory (including [code].[/code] and [code]..[/code], unless [code]skip_navigational[/code] was given to [method list_dir_begin]).
|
|
The name of the file or directory is returned (and not its full path). Once the stream has been fully processed, the method returns an empty String and closes the stream automatically (i.e. [method list_dir_end] would not be mandatory in such a case).
|
|

</method>
|
|
<method name="get_space_left">
|
|
<return type="int" />
|
|
<description>
|
|
On UNIX desktop systems, returns the available space on the current directory's disk. On other platforms, this information is not available and the method returns 0 or -1.
|
|
</description>
|
|
</method>
|
|
<method name="list_dir_begin">
|
|
<return type="int" enum="Error" />
|
|
<description>
|
|
Initializes the stream used to list all files and directories using the [method get_next] function, closing the currently opened stream if needed. Once the stream has been processed, it should typically be closed with [method list_dir_end].
|
|
Affected by [member include_hidden] and [member include_navigational].
|
|
[b]Note:[/b] The order of files and directories returned by this method is not deterministic, and can vary between operating systems. If you want a list of all files or folders sorted alphabetically, use [method get_files] or [method get_directories].

|
|
</method>
|
|
<method name="list_dir_end">
|
|
<return type="void" />
|
|
<description>
|
|
Closes the current stream opened with [method list_dir_begin] (whether it has been fully processed with [method get_next] does not matter).
|
|
</description>

</method>
|
|
<method name="make_dir">
|
|
<return type="int" enum="Error" />
|
|
<argument index="0" name="path" type="String" />
|
|
<description>

|
<description>
|
|
Opens an existing directory of the filesystem. The [code]path[/code] argument can be within the project tree ([code]res://folder[/code]), the user directory ([code]user://folder[/code]) or an absolute path of the user filesystem (e.g. [code]/tmp/folder[/code] or [code]C:\tmp\folder[/code]).

<description>
|
|
Renames (move) the [code]from[/code] file or directory to the [code]to[/code] destination. Both arguments should be paths to files or directories, either relative or absolute. If the destination file or directory exists and is not access-protected, it will be overwritten.
