Preforms write operations on an asset storage. AssetWriter exposes a “virtual filesystem” API, where asset bytes and asset metadata bytes are both stored and accessible for a given path. This trait is not object safe, if needed use a dyn ErasedAssetWriter instead.

This trait defines asset-agnostic mechanisms to write bytes to a storage system. For the per-asset-type saving/loading logic, see AssetSaver and AssetLoader.

For a complementary version of this trait that can read assets from storage, see AssetReader.

Required Methods

fn write<'a>(&'a self, path: &'a Path) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Writes the full asset bytes at the provided path.

fn write_meta<'a>(&'a self, path: &'a Path) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Writes the full asset meta bytes at the provided path. This should not include storage specific extensions like .meta.

fn remove<'a>(&'a self, path: &'a Path) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Removes the asset stored at the given path.

fn remove_meta<'a>(&'a self, path: &'a Path) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Removes the asset meta stored at the given path. This should not include storage specific extensions like .meta.

fn rename<'a>( &'a self, old_path: &'a Path, new_path: &'a Path, ) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Renames the asset at old_path to new_path

fn rename_meta<'a>( &'a self, old_path: &'a Path, new_path: &'a Path, ) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Renames the asset meta for the asset at old_path to new_path. This should not include storage specific extensions like .meta.

fn create_directory<'a>(&'a self, path: &'a Path) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Creates a directory at the given path, including all parent directories if they do not already exist.

fn remove_directory<'a>(&'a self, path: &'a Path) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Removes the directory at the given path, including all assets and directories in that directory.

fn remove_empty_directory<'a>( &'a self, path: &'a Path, ) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Removes the directory at the given path, but only if it is completely empty. This will return an error if the directory is not empty.

fn remove_assets_in_directory<'a>( &'a self, path: &'a Path, ) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Removes all assets (and directories) in this directory, resulting in an empty directory.

Provided Methods

fn write_bytes<'a>( &'a self, path: &'a Path, bytes: &'a [u8], ) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Writes the asset bytes to the given path.

fn write_meta_bytes<'a>( &'a self, path: &'a Path, bytes: &'a [u8], ) -> impl ConditionalSendFuture

Writes the asset meta bytes to the given path.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
