How to read names of all files and folders in current directory?
Readdirnames reads and returns a slice of names from the directory X. The names contains both name of directories and files.
file, err := os.Open(".") // reads the current directory
Example
package main
import (
"log"
"os"
"fmt"
)
func readCurrentDir() {
file, err := os.Open(".")
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("failed opening directory: %s", err)
}
defer file.Close()
list,_ := file.Readdirnames(0) // 0 to read all files and folders
for _, name := range list {
fmt.Println(name)
}
}
func main() {
readCurrentDir()
}
