I'm using chicagoboss
for web development. To test some test modules I would like to change my current directory to something else. I know I can change directory by specifying full path to to cd("full path")
.
Suppose I'm in a directory "/home/user/workspace/myproject/myapp/" where I'm running myproject project.But now I want to check my current location using erlang shell.
Is there any function/command in erlang
to get current working directory? In python I was using os.getcwd()
.
Try:
{ok, CurrentDirectory} = file:get_cwd()
.
Also check out erldocs.com to quickly look up functions in the Erlang documentation.
