Function catalyzer::internals::crates::tokio::fs::canonicalize

pub async fn canonicalize(path: impl AsRef<Path>) -> Result<PathBuf, Error>

Returns the canonical, absolute form of a path with all intermediate components normalized and symbolic links resolved.

This is an async version of std::fs::canonicalize.

Platform-specific behavior

This function currently corresponds to the realpath function on Unix and the CreateFile and GetFinalPathNameByHandle functions on Windows. Note that, this may change in the future.

On Windows, this converts the path to use extended length path syntax, which allows your program to use longer path names, but means you can only join backslash-delimited paths to it, and it may be incompatible with other applications (if passed to the application on the command-line, or written to a file another application may read).

Errors

This function will return an error in the following situations, but is not limited to just these cases:

• path does not exist.
• A non-final component in path is not a directory.

Examples

use tokio::fs;
use std::io;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
    let path = fs::canonicalize("../a/../foo.txt").await?;
    Ok(())
}
