fs

Documentation

Overview

Package fs provides I/O utility functions for filesystem interactions. Please note that it makes use of the underlying filesystem and only serves as additional utility for the "os" Go standard library package. For more advanced and extended features see packages like https://github.com/spf13/afero instead.
