# Function symlink_metadata

Source

    pub fn symlink_metadata<P: AsRef<Path>>(path: P) -> Metadata

Expand description

A wrapper around `std::fs::symlink_metadata` which includes the file path in the panic message. Note that this will not traverse symlinks and will return metadata about the filesystem entity itself. Use `metadata` if you want to traverse symlinks.

See `std::fs::symlink_metadata` docs for more details.
