Directory iterator
The following example iterates over a directory and recursively lists the attributes for each file inside it.
require"lfs"
function attrdir (path)
for file in lfs.dir(path) do
if file ~= "." and file ~= ".." then
local f = path..'/'..file
print ("\t "..f)
local attr = lfs.attributes (f)
assert (type(attr) == "table")
if attr.mode == "directory" then
attrdir (f)
else
for name, value in pairs(attr) do
print (name, value)
end
end
end
end
end
attrdir (".")
