See primary documentation in context for sub mkdir
sub mkdir(IO() , Int() = 0o777 --> IO::Path)
Creates a new directory; see mode
for explanation and valid values for $mode
. Returns the IO::Path
object pointing to the newly created directory on success; fails with X::IO::Mkdir
if directory cannot be created.
Also creates parent directories, as needed (similar to *nix utility mkdir
with -p
option); that is, mkdir "foo/bar/ber/meow"
will create foo
, foo/bar
, and foo/bar/ber
directories if they do not exist, as well as foo/bar/ber/meow
.
In IO::Path§
See primary documentation in context for method mkdir
method mkdir(IO::Path: Int() = 0o777 --> IO::Path)
Creates a new directory, including its parent directories, as needed (similar to *nix utility mkdir
with -p
option). That is, mkdir "foo/bar/ber/meow"
will create foo
, foo/bar
, and foo/bar/ber
directories as well if they do not exist.
Returns the IO::Path
object pointing to the newly created directory on success; fails with X::IO::Mkdir
