Package edu.wpi.first.wpilibj

Class Filesystem

java.lang.Object

edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.Filesystem

public final class Filesystem
extends Object

Class for interacting with the Filesystem, particularly, interacting with FRC-related paths on the system, such as the launch and deploy directories.

This class is primarily used for obtaining resources in src/main/deploy, and the RoboRIO path /home/lvuser in a simulation-compatible way.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static File	getDeployDirectory()	Obtains the 'deploy' directory of the program, located at src/main/deploy, which is deployed by default.
static File	getLaunchDirectory()	Obtains the current working path that the program was launched with.
static File	getOperatingDirectory()	Obtains the operating directory of the program.

Method Details

getLaunchDirectory

public static File getLaunchDirectory()

Obtains the current working path that the program was launched with. This is analogous to the `pwd` command on unix.

Returns:

The current working directory (launch directory)

getOperatingDirectory

public static File getOperatingDirectory()

Obtains the operating directory of the program. On the roboRIO, this is /home/lvuser. In simulation, it is where the simulation was launched from (`pwd`).

Returns:

The operating directory

getDeployDirectory

public static File getDeployDirectory()

Obtains the 'deploy' directory of the program, located at src/main/deploy, which is deployed by default. On the roboRIO, this is /home/lvuser/deploy. In simulation, it is where the simulation was launched from, in the subdirectory "src/main/deploy" (`pwd`/src/main/deploy).

Returns:

The 'deploy' directory
