python-linkat
The single purpose of python-linkat is to provide python developers with
the ability to use the system native functions linkat
and symlinkat
.
The Library is written in plain python and utilizes cffi to call native
system functions and therefore depends on it.
Documentation
This module provides only the 2 functions linkat
and symlinkat
and their constants which can be used as arguments for the flag
parameter.
For a more detailed documentation please look at the corresponding linux
man pages for linkat and symlinkat. If there was an error during
the system call, OSError
with the corresponding error code will be raised.
Installation
The package is available on PyPI and thus it can be installed with pip:
$ pip install linkat
