- ==================================================
- Send2Trash -- Send files to trash on all platforms
- ==================================================
- Send2Trash is a small package that sends files to the Trash (or Recycle Bin) *natively* and on
- *all platforms*. On OS X, it uses native ``FSMoveObjectToTrashSync`` Cocoa calls, on Windows, it
- uses native (and ugly) ``SHFileOperation`` win32 calls. On other platforms, if `PyGObject`_ and
- `GIO`_ are available, it will use this. Otherwise, it will fallback to its own implementation
- of the `trash specifications from freedesktop.org`_.
- ``ctypes`` is used to access native libraries, so no compilation is necessary.
- Send2Trash supports Python 2.7 and up (Python 3 is supported).
- Installation
- ------------
- You can download it with pip::
- pip install Send2Trash
- or you can download the source from http://github.com/hsoft/send2trash and install it with::
- >>> python setup.py install
- Usage
- -----
- >>> from send2trash import send2trash
- >>> send2trash('some_file')
- On Freedesktop platforms (Linux, BSD, etc.), you may not be able to efficiently
- trash some files. In these cases, an exception ``send2trash.TrashPermissionError``
- is raised, so that the application can handle this case. This inherits from
- ``PermissionError`` (``OSError`` on Python 2). Specifically, this affects
- files on a different device to the user's home directory, where the root of the
- device does not have a ``.Trash`` directory, and we don't have permission to
- create a ``.Trash-$UID`` directory.
- For any other problem, ``OSError`` is raised.
