Create directory in Go
In this short tutorial, we will learn how to create directory in platform independent manner. I.e we don't worry about the \
and /
part for *nix and Windows machines.
mkdir.go
package main
import (
//"fmt"
"os"
"path/filepath"
)
func main() {
// create a TestDir directory on current working directory
os.Mkdir("." + string(filepath.Separator) + "TestDir",0777)
}
The 0777
permission can be to liberal for some cases and you might want to change it for your production code.
