Constructor Detail

Path

public Path(String parent,
    String child)

Create a new Path based on the child path resolved against the parent path.

Parameters:

parent - the parent path

child - the child path

Path

public Path(Path parent,
    String child)

Create a new Path based on the child path resolved against the parent path.

Parameters:

parent - the parent path

child - the child path

Path

public Path(String parent,
    Path child)

Create a new Path based on the child path resolved against the parent path.

Parameters:

parent - the parent path

child - the child path

Path

public Path(Path parent,
    Path child)

Create a new Path based on the child path resolved against the parent path.

Parameters:

parent - the parent path

child - the child path

Path

public Path(String pathString)
     throws IllegalArgumentException

Construct a path from a String. Path strings are URIs, but with unescaped elements and some additional normalization.

Parameters:

pathString - the path string

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException

Path

public Path(URI aUri)

Construct a path from a URI

Parameters:

aUri - the source URI

Path

public Path(String scheme,
    String authority,
    String path)

Construct a Path from components.

Parameters:

scheme - the scheme

authority - the authority

path - the path

Method Detail

getPathWithoutSchemeAndAuthority

public static Path getPathWithoutSchemeAndAuthority(Path path)

Return a version of the given Path without the scheme information.

Parameters:

path - the source Path

Returns:

a copy of this Path without the scheme information

mergePaths

public static Path mergePaths(Path path1,
              Path path2)

Merge 2 paths such that the second path is appended relative to the first. The returned path has the scheme and authority of the first path. On Windows, the drive specification in the second path is discarded.

Parameters:

path1 - the first path

path2 - the second path, to be appended relative to path1

Returns:

the merged path

isWindowsAbsolutePath

public static boolean isWindowsAbsolutePath(String pathString,
                            boolean slashed)

Determine whether a given path string represents an absolute path on Windows. e.g. "C:/a/b" is an absolute path. "C:a/b" is not.

Parameters:

pathString - the path string to evaluate

slashed - true if the given path is prefixed with "/"

Returns:

true if the supplied path looks like an absolute path with a Windows drive-specifier

toUri

public URI toUri()

Convert this Path to a URI.

Returns:

this Path as a URI

getFileSystem

public FileSystem getFileSystem(Configuration conf)
                         throws IOException

Return the FileSystem that owns this Path.

Parameters:

conf - the configuration to use when resolving the FileSystem

Returns:

the FileSystem that owns this Path

Throws:

IOException - thrown if there's an issue resolving the FileSystem

isAbsoluteAndSchemeAuthorityNull

public boolean isAbsoluteAndSchemeAuthorityNull()

Returns true if the path component (i.e. directory) of this URI is absolute and the scheme is null, and the authority is null.

Returns:

whether the path is absolute and the URI has no scheme nor authority parts

isUriPathAbsolute

public boolean isUriPathAbsolute()

Returns true if the path component (i.e. directory) of this URI is absolute.

Returns:

whether this URI's path is absolute

isAbsolute

Returns:

whether this URI's path is absolute

isRoot

public boolean isRoot()

Returns true if and only if this path represents the root of a file system.

Returns:

true if and only if this path represents the root of a file system
