realFile R Documentation
follow any symlinks, returning the path to a normal file
or folder
Description
Given a path, there are some file operations where we want to be
sure we're dealing with the real file, and not a symlink to it.
For a vector of paths, this function follows any symlinks along
each path, returning the ultimate normal file or directory as a
target.
Usage
realFile(path)
Arguments
paths
character vector of paths
Value
character value of the same length as path, with any
symlinks followed so that each item returned is a path to a
normal file or folder. For any item in path which
doesn't exist, or for which the last symlink target doesn't exist,
or for which there is a symlink loop, returns NA.
