Go的标准库并没有专门用来检查文件是否存在的函数(就像Python的os.path.exists)。惯用的做法是什么?


当前回答

函数示例:

func file_is_exists(f string) bool {
    _, err := os.Stat(f)
    if os.IsNotExist(err) {
        return false
    }
    return err == nil
}

user11617的示例不正确;即使在文件不存在的情况下,它也会报告文件存在,但存在其他类型的错误。

签名应该是Exists(string) (bool, error)。然后,碰巧的是,通话地点也没好到哪里去。

他编写的代码最好是:

func Exists(name string) bool {
    _, err := os.Stat(name)
    return !os.IsNotExist(err)
}

但我建议这样做:

func Exists(name string) (bool, error) {
  _, err := os.Stat(name)
  if os.IsNotExist(err) {
    return false, nil
  }
  return err != nil, err
}

答案由Caleb Spare张贴在gonuts邮件列表中。

[...] It's not actually needed very often and [...] using os.Stat is easy enough for the cases where it is required. [...] For instance: if you are going to open the file, there's no reason to check whether it exists first. The file could disappear in between checking and opening, and anyway you'll need to check the os.Open error regardless. So you simply call os.IsNotExist(err) after you try to open the file, and deal with its non-existence there (if that requires special handling). [...] You don't need to check for the paths existing at all (and you shouldn't). os.MkdirAll works whether or not the paths already exist. (Also you need to check the error from that call.) Instead of using os.Create, you should use os.OpenFile(path, os.O_RDWR|os.O_CREATE|os.O_EXCL, 0666) . That way you'll get an error if the file already exists. Also this doesn't have a race condition with something else making the file, unlike your version which checks for existence beforehand.

你应该使用os.Stat()和os.IsNotExist()函数,如下例所示:

func Exists(name string) (bool, error) {
    _, err := os.Stat(name)
    if err == nil {
        return true, nil
    }
    if errors.Is(err, os.ErrNotExist) {
        return false, nil
    }
    return false, err
}

修正了在某些情况下返回true的问题。 edit2:从os.IsNotExist()切换到使用errors.Is(),许多人说这是最佳实践

检查文件是否存在的最佳方法:

if _, err := os.Stat("/path/to/file"); err == nil || os.IsExist(err) {
    // your code here if file exists
}

函数示例:

func file_is_exists(f string) bool {
    _, err := os.Stat(f)
    if os.IsNotExist(err) {
        return false
    }
    return err == nil
}
