Adding `umask` library as a dependency

Run this command in a terminal, in your project's directory:

cargo add umask

To add it manually, edit your project's Cargo.toml file and add to the [dependencies] section:

umask = "2.1.0"

The umask library will be automatically available globally. Read the umask library documentation.

Readme

umask

A light utility helping with unix mode representation, with strong types to avoid misusing constants.

The Mode struct implements Display and prints as "rwxrwxrwx"

Import

In Cargo.toml:

umask = "'2.0"

Usage

use umask::*;

// You can build from a number:
assert_eq!("rw-r--r--", Mode::from(0b110100100).to_string());
assert_eq!("rw-r--r--", Mode::from(0o644).to_string());

// You may use `|` to combine class permissions:
let mu = Mode::from(0o640);
let mo = Mode::from(0o044);
assert_eq!("rw-r--r--", (mu | mo).to_string());
assert_eq!("---r-----", (mu & mo).to_string());

// You can use more semantic constructs:
let m = Mode::all()
    .without(ALL_EXEC);
assert_eq!("rw-rw-rw-", m.to_string());
let mut m = Mode::new()
    .with_class_perm(ALL, READ)
    .with_class_perm(USER, WRITE);
assert_eq!("rw-r--r--", m.to_string());
// (semantic functions can be used in const declarations)

// Or
m |= ALL_EXEC;
assert_eq!("rwxr-xr-x", m.to_string());
let m = ALL_READ | USER_WRITE;
assert_eq!("rw-r--r--", m.to_string());

// Displaying the mode can be done with the `Display`
// implementation but also bit per bit for more control
assert_eq!(
    m.to_string().chars().next().unwrap(), // first char: 'r' or '-'
    if m.has(USER_READ) { 'r' } else { '-' },
);

// The `Display` implementation shows the extra permission bits
// (setuid, setgid and sticky):
let mut m = Mode::all()
    .with_extra(STICKY)
    .with_extra(SETUID)
    .with_extra(SETGID);
assert_eq!("rwsrwsrwt", m.to_string());

// But you can remove those bits for display if you want the
// sometimes more familiar 'x' for execution:
assert_eq!("rwxrwxrwx", m.without_any_extra().to_string());
