Package Information

Descriptionsymbolic link aware filepath walk (Go library)

Package symwalk provides an implementation of symbolic link aware filepath walk.

Walk calls filepath.Walk (http://golang.org/pkg/path/filepath/#Walk) by providing it with a special WalkFn that wraps the given WalkFn. This function calls the given WalkFn for regular files. However, when it encounters a symbolic link, it resolves the link fully using filepath.EvalSymlinks (http://golang.org/pkg/path/filepath/#EvalSymlinks) and recursively calls symwalk.Walk on the resolved path. This ensures that unlike filepath.Walk, traversal does not stop at symbolic links.

This package contains the Go library.
