Function std::fs::create_dir
1.0.0 · source · pub fn create_dir<P: AsRef<Path>>(path: P) -> Result<()>
Expand description
Creates a new, empty directory at the provided path
§Platform-specific behavior
This function currently corresponds to the mkdir
function on Unix
and the CreateDirectory
function on Windows.
Note that, this may change in the future.
NOTE: If a parent of the given path doesn’t exist, this function will
return an error. To create a directory and all its missing parents at the
same time, use the create_dir_all
function.
§Errors
This function will return an error in the following situations, but is not limited to just these cases:
- User lacks permissions to create directory at
path
. - A parent of the given path doesn’t exist. (To create a directory and all
its missing parents at the same time, use the
create_dir_all
function.) path
already exists.
§Examples
use std::fs;
fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
fs::create_dir("/some/dir")?;
Ok(())
}
