FS.ISDIRECTORY(3lua) "3lua" "Callisto manual pages"
# NAME
*fs.isdirectory* - check whether a path points to a directory
# SYNOPSIS
*fs.isdirectory*(_path_: *string*)
# DESCRIPTION
*fs.isdirectory* returns whether _path_ points to a directory.
If an error occurs,
*fs.isdirectory* returns nil, an error message and
a platform-dependent error code.
Usually this only happens when passing a nonexistent path,
or a path to a file which you do not have permission to read.
See lstat(2) for a complete list.
# EXAMPLES
Check whether /bin is a directory:
if not fs.isdirectory("/bin") then
print("something's wrong...")
end
