Namespace: Infocyph\Pathwise\Utils

Path and metadata helpers:

  • PathHelper: normalize, join, relative/absolute conversion, scheme-aware paths.

  • MetadataHelper: size, mime, checksum, timestamps, ownership, path type.

  • PermissionsHelper: read/write/execute checks and permission formatting.

Ownership resolution:

  • Uses OS-specific adapters in Utils\\Ownership (POSIX, Windows, fallback).

  • Avoids shell-based ownership lookup.

File watch helper:

  • FileWatcher provides snapshot/diff/watch flows for change tracking.

Examples#

Path and metadata:

use Infocyph\Pathwise\Utils\MetadataHelper;
use Infocyph\Pathwise\Utils\PathHelper;

$path = PathHelper::join('/tmp', 'reports', 'a.txt');
$mime = MetadataHelper::getMimeType($path);
$meta = MetadataHelper::getAllMetadata($path);

Watcher snapshot + diff:

use Infocyph\Pathwise\Utils\FileWatcher;

$before = FileWatcher::snapshot('/tmp/reports');
// perform file operations
$after = FileWatcher::snapshot('/tmp/reports');
$changes = FileWatcher::diff($before, $after);
