A Ruby interface for getting file system information.
gem install sys-filesystem
require 'sys/filesystem' include Sys # Display information about a particular filesystem. p Filesystem.stat('/') # Sample output #<Sys::Filesystem::Stat:0x517440 @base_type = "ufs", @flags = 4, @files_available = 3817457, @block_size = 8192, @blocks_available = 19957633, @blocks = 34349612, @name_max = 255, @path = "/", @filesystem_id = 35651592, @files = 4135040, @fragment_size = 1024, @files_free = 3817457, @blocks_free = 20301129 > # Describe all mount points on the system Filesystem.mounts{ |mount| p mount } # Find the mount point of any particular file puts Filesystem.mount_point('/home/djberge/some_file.txt') => '/home'
This is a pure Ruby implementation that uses FFI. This means it should work with JRuby, too.
Run 'rake example' if you want to see a basic sample run. The actual code is 'example_stat.rb' in the 'examples' directory. Modify it as you see fit.
None that I'm aware of. Please report bugs on the project page at https://github.com/djberg96/sys-filesystem
Suggestions welcome.
