tauri-plugin-fs-pro

This plugin only works on tauri v2, if you need the v1 plugin, feel free to submit a PR!

What is the difference with @tauri-apps/plugin-fs?

The stat method of @tauri-apps/plugin-fs supports only files when getting size, while the metadata method of tauri-plugin-fs-pro supports both files and directories when getting size. And some additional methods are provided. More methods will be expanded in the future.

Usage

src-tauri/src/lib.rs

pub fn run() {
    tauri::Builder::default()
+       .plugin(tauri_plugin_fs_pro::init())
        .run(tauri::generate_context!())
        .expect("error while running tauri application");

src-tauri/capabilities/default.json

{
    ...
    "permissions": [
