Std.Io.move

1 declaration

fn

move: Str -> Str -> Result[(), Str]

This is a callable function.

What it does

A file moved by renaming it, copying only when a rename cannot reach.

A rename within one filesystem never leaves both or neither; the copy and

removal are the fallback for a destination on another filesystem.

Read the signature

  • The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
  • Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
  • Names inside [ ] are type arguments, such as the item type held by a collection.
  • Result makes success and recoverable failure part of the function's type.
