[Golang] Check if File, Directory, or Symlink Exist
Check if a file, directory, or symbolic link exists in Golang:
import "os"
func IsExist(path string) bool {
if _, err := os.Stat(path); err == nil {
// exist
return true
}
// not exist
return false
}
If you want to check if NOT exist:
import "os"
func IsNotExist(path string) bool {
if _, err := os.Stat(path); os.IsNotExist(err) {
// not exist
return true
}
// exist
return false
}
