Detailed Description

A validator that checks if a given path is a valid input directory.

The class acts as a functor that throws a seqan3::validation_error exception whenever a given directory (std::filesystem::path) does not exist, the specified path is not a directory, or if the directory is not readable.

Member Function Documentation

◆ get_help_page_message()

std::string seqan3::input_directory_validator::get_help_page_message ( ) const
inline

Returns a message that can be appended to the (positional) options help page info.

Implements validator.

◆ operator()()

virtual void seqan3::input_directory_validator::operator() ( std::filesystem::path const &  dir) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Tests whether path is an existing directory and is readable.

Parameters
dirThe input value to check.
Exceptions
seqan3::validation_errorif the validation process failed. Might be nested with std::filesystem::filesystem_error on unhandled OS API errors.

Implements seqan3::file_validator_base.
