EditorFileSystem #

const func get_file_type(path: String) -> String#

Returns the resource type of the file, given the full path. This returns a string such as "Resource" or "GDScript", not a file extension such as ".gd".

func get_filesystem() -> EditorFileSystemDirectory#

Gets the root directory object.

func get_filesystem_path(path: String) -> EditorFileSystemDirectory#

Returns a view into the filesystem at path.

const func get_scanning_progress() -> float#

Returns the scan progress for 0 to 1 if the FS is being scanned.

const func is_scanning() -> bool#

Returns true if the filesystem is being scanned.

func reimport_files(files: PackedStringArray) -> void#

Reimports a set of files. Call this if these files or their .import files were directly edited by script or an external program.

If the file type changed or the file was newly created, use update_file or scan.

Note: This function blocks until the import is finished. However, the main loop iteration, including timers and Node._process, will occur during the import process due to progress bar updates. Avoid calls to reimport_files or scan while an import is in progress.

func scan() -> void#

Scan the filesystem for changes.

func scan_sources() -> void#

Check if the source of any imported resource changed.

func update_file(path: String) -> void#

Add a file in an existing directory, or schedule file information to be updated on editor restart. Can be used to update text files saved by an external program.

This will not import the file. To reimport, call reimport_files or scan methods.
