sturdy.fs

A small collection of file system utilities for Clojure.

This library provides a thin, opinionated wrapper around babashka.fs for common tasks such as reading and writing files, handling byte arrays, and working with paths.

Features

• Read files as bytes, strings, EDN, or lines
• Write bytes, strings, or EDN with automatic parent directory creation
• Optional atomic file writes
• Simple helpers for path manipulation
• POSIX permission helpers (chmod-600!, chmod-400!)

Design

• Minimal API
• Explicit error checking (via taoensso.truss)
• No global state
• Intended as a small shared utility library, not a full filesystem abstraction

Non-goals

• Streaming or lazy IO
• File watching
• Platform-specific abstractions beyond what babashka.fs provides
