@defmodule[pollen/file]

A utility module that provides functions for working with Pollen source and output files. The tests rely on file extensions specified in @racket[pollen/world].

Pollen handles seven kinds of source files:

@bold{Preprocessor}, with file extension @code[(format ".~a" world:preproc-source-ext)]. 

@bold{Markup}, with file extension @code[(format ".~a" world:markup-source-ext)]. 

@bold{Markdown}, with file extension @code[(format ".~a" world:markdown-source-ext)]. 

@bold{Template}, with file extension @code[(format ".~a" world:template-source-ext)]. 

@bold{Null}, with file extension @code[(format ".~a" world:null-source-ext)]. 

@bold{Scribble}, with file extension @code[(format ".~a" world:scribble-source-ext)]. 

For each kind of Pollen source file, the corresponding output file is generated by removing the  extension from the name of the source file. So the preprocessor source file @filepath{default.css.pp} would become @filepath{default.css}. Scribble files work differently — the corresponding output file is the source file but with an @filepath{html} extension rather than @filepath{scrbl}. So @filepath["pollen.scrbl"] would become @filepath["pollen.html"].

Test whether @racket[_v] is a path representing a source file of the specified type, or is the output path for an existing source file of the specified type. In other words, @racket[has/is-preproc-source?] is equivalent to @racket[(or (preproc-source? v) (has-preproc-source? v))].

Convert an output path @racket[_p] into the source path of the specified type that would produce this output path. This function simply generates a path for a file — it does not ask whether the file exists.

@examples[#:eval my-eval
(define name "default.html")

Convert an output path @racket[_p] into the source path of the specified type that would produce this output path. This function simply generates a path for a file — it does not ask whether the file exists.

@defproc[
(->source-path
[p pathish?]) 
(or/c #f path?)]
Attempt to automatically convert an output path @racket[_p] into its source path. This function checks for the existence of the path with the extensions for markup, markdown, preprocessor, null, and scribble files.

@defproc[
(->output-path
[p pathish?]) 
path?]
Convert a source path @racket[_p] into its corresponding output path. This function simply generates a path for a file — it does not ask whether the file exists.

@examples[#:eval my-eval
(->output-path "main.css.pp")
(->output-path "default.html.pm")
