Functions

All the functions defined in the project.

access

access(path, mode, *, dir_fd=None, effective_ids=False, follow_symlinks=True)

Description:

Use the real uid/gid to test for access to a path.

dir_fd, effective_ids, and follow_symlinks may not be implemented on your platform. If they are unavailable, using them will raise a NotImplementedError.

Note that most operations will use the effective uid/gid, therefore this routine can be used in a suid/sgid environment to test if the invoking user has the specified access to the path.

Parameters:

path, Path to be tested; can be string, bytes, or a path-like object
mode, Operating-system mode bitfield. Can be F_OK to test existence, or the inclusive-OR of R_OK, W_OK, and X_OK
dir_fd, If not None, it should be a file descriptor open to a directory, and path should be relative; path will then be relative to that directory
effective_ids, If True, access will use the effective uid/gid instead of the real uid/gid
follow_symlinks, If False, and the last element of the path is a symbolic link, access will examine the symbolic link itself instead of the file the link points to

at_exit_helpers

at_exit_helpers()

Description:

Executes at the exit of the execution of the script.
