fileExists(atPath:)
Returns a Boolean value that indicates whether a file or directory exists at a specified path.
Declaration
func fileExists(atPath path: String) -> BoolParameters
- path:
The path of the file or directory. If
pathbegins with a tilde (~), it must first be expanded with Expandingtildeinpath; otherwise, this method returns False.App Sandbox does not restrict which path values may be passed to this parameter.
Return Value
true if a file at the specified path exists, or false if the file does not exist or its existence could not be determined.
Discussion
If the file at path is inaccessible to your app, perhaps because one or more parent directories are inaccessible, this method returns false. If the final element in path specifies a symbolic link, this method traverses the link and returns true or false based on the existence of the file at the link destination.
