File Metadata as a Tibble

Source: R/path_utils.R
file_meta_fs.Rd

Vectorized file information from [fs::file_info()], with names and parent folders split out for joining.

Usage

file_meta_fs(paths)

Arguments

paths

Character vector of file paths.

Value

A tibble with one row per path: `path`, `file_name`, `dir_name` (parent folder name), `dir_path`, `m_time` (modified), `c_time` (created, falling back to changed, then modified), `size` in bytes, and `uname` (owner, where the platform reports one).
