在Java中是否有一种方法可以递归地删除整个目录?

在正常情况下,可以删除空目录。 然而,当涉及到删除包含内容的整个目录时,就不再那么简单了。

如何在Java中删除包含内容的整个目录?

番石榴21.0及以上版本

有一个void deleterecursive (Path Path, RecursiveDeleteOption…)options)会抛出从Guava 21.0开始可用的MoreFiles类的IOException静态方法。

请参阅Javadoc文档:

public static void deleteRecursively(Path path, RecursiveDeleteOption... options) throws IOException Deletes the file or directory at the given path recursively. Deletes symbolic links, not their targets (subject to the caveat below). If an I/O exception occurs attempting to read, open or delete any file under the given directory, this method skips that file and continues. All such exceptions are collected and, after attempting to delete all files, an IOException is thrown containing those exceptions as suppressed exceptions.

虽然可以使用file.delete()轻松删除文件,但要删除的目录必须为空。使用递归可以很容易地做到这一点。例如:

public static void clearFolders(String[] args) {
        for(String st : args){
            File folder = new File(st);
            if (folder.isDirectory()) {
                File[] files = folder.listFiles();
                if(files!=null) { 
                    for(File f: files) {
                        if (f.isDirectory()){
                            clearFolders(new String[]{f.getAbsolutePath()});
                            f.delete();
                        } else {
                            f.delete();
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }

这是一个接受命令行参数的基本main方法,您可能需要附加自己的错误检查或将其塑造为您认为合适的方式。

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.IOException;

public class DeleteFiles {

/**
 * @param intitial arguments take in a source to read from and a 
 * destination to read to
 */
    public static void main(String[] args)
                     throws FileNotFoundException,IOException {
        File src = new File(args[0]);
        if (!src.exists() ) {
            System.out.println("FAILURE!");
        }else{
            // Gathers files in directory
            File[] a = src.listFiles();
            for (int i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
                //Sends files to recursive deletion method
                fileDelete(a[i]);
            }
            // Deletes original source folder
            src.delete();
            System.out.println("Success!");
        }
    }

    /**
     * @param srcFile Source file to examine
     * @throws FileNotFoundException if File not found
     * @throws IOException if File not found
     */
    private static void fileDelete(File srcFile)
                     throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
        // Checks if file is a directory
        if (srcFile.isDirectory()) {
            //Gathers files in directory
            File[] b = srcFile.listFiles();
            for (int i = 0; i < b.length; i++) {
                //Recursively deletes all files and sub-directories
                fileDelete(b[i]);
            }
            // Deletes original sub-directory file
            srcFile.delete();
        } else {
            srcFile.delete();
        }
    }
}

我希望这对你有所帮助!

您应该查看Apache的commons-io。它有一个FileUtils类,可以做你想做的事情。

FileUtils.deleteDirectory(new File("directory"));

在遗留项目中,我需要创建本地Java代码。我创建了类似于Paulitex代码的代码。看到:

public class FileHelper {

   public static boolean delete(File fileOrFolder) {
      boolean result = true;
      if(fileOrFolder.isDirectory()) {
         for (File file : fileOrFolder.listFiles()) {
            result = result && delete(file);
         }
      }
      result = result && fileOrFolder.delete();
      return result;
   } 
}

单元测试:

public class FileHelperTest {

    @Before
    public void setup() throws IOException {
       new File("FOLDER_TO_DELETE/SUBFOLDER").mkdirs();
       new File("FOLDER_TO_DELETE/SUBFOLDER_TWO").mkdirs();
       new File("FOLDER_TO_DELETE/SUBFOLDER_TWO/TEST_FILE.txt").createNewFile();
    }

    @Test
    public void deleteFolderWithFiles() {
       File folderToDelete = new File("FOLDER_TO_DELETE");
       Assert.assertTrue(FileHelper.delete(folderToDelete));
       Assert.assertFalse(new File("FOLDER_TO_DELETE").exists());
    }

}

一行程序解决方案(Java8),递归删除所有文件和目录,包括起始目录:

try (var dirStream = Files.walk(Paths.get("c:/dir_to_delete/"))) {
    dirStream
        .map(Path::toFile)
        .sorted(Comparator.reverseOrder())
        .forEach(File::delete);
}

我们使用一个颠倒顺序的比较器,否则File::delete将不能删除可能非空的目录。所以,如果你想保留目录,只删除文件,只需在sorted()中删除比较器或完全删除排序,并添加文件过滤器:

try (var dirStream = Files.walk(Paths.get("c:/dir_to_delete/"))) {
    dirStream
        .filter(Files::isRegularFile)
        .map(Path::toFile)
        .forEach(File::delete);
}
