Definition

Provides helper methods for reading and writing a file using the absolute path or Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of the file.

Examples

You can use WriteTextAsync(filePathOrURI, contents) to write text to a file. In the example, filePathOrURI is a local variable that contains a URI (like an app URI "ms-appdata://sampleFile.dat") or a file system path (like C:\examplepath\sampleFile.dat) for the file to read. Although the WriteTextAsync methods don't have a return value, you can still perform additional tasks after the text is written to the file, as the example shows.

try
{
    if (file != null)
    {
        await PathIO.WriteTextAsync(filePathOrURI, "Swift as a shadow");
    }
}
// Handle errors with catch blocks
catch (FileNotFoundException)
{
    // For example, handle file not found
}

You can use ReadTextAsync(filePathOrURI) to read text from a file. After ReadTextAsync completes, the fileContent variable gets the contents of the file as a text string. You can then process the contents as appropriate.

try
{
    if (file != null)
    {
        string fileContent = await PathIO.ReadTextAsync(filePathOrURI);
    }
}
// Handle errors with catch blocks
catch (FileNotFoundException)
{
    // For example, handle file not found
}

Remarks

To read or write to a file using a path or Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), you must have permission to access the file's location. To learn more about what locations your app has permission to access, see File access permissions.

You can specify an app Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) to read or write files in app-specific locations like your app data folder ("ms-appdata://"). To learn more about app Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), see How to reference content.
