Is there a way to list folders and files in Krom? I'm targeting Krom and I need to be able to list the directories in a "Mods" folder and execute the krom.js file in every mod. As far as I can tell, the Kha API allows you to load blobs from a path, but it doesn't allow you to list directories or files within a path. I suppose that makes a certain amount of sense because that wouldn't work on all platforms, such as web, but I do need a way to do it on the Krom platform.

Normally this is done via Haxe's own sys API but so far nobody implemented that for Krom. Feel free to send a pull request.

@robert I just had an idea, would it be possible to compile the sys package from the Haxe standard library to C++ using the Haxe C++ backend, include this generated C++ code in Krom, and bind it to Javascript. That would allow us to avoid having to re-implement sys from scratch in Krom.

HashLink can also compile to C so that might be another option for sourcing the sys implementation.

Do you think this would work or would there be problems. I don't have experience in C/C++, but I'm wanting to get sys support in Krom so I thought that this might be an easy way to get a sys implementation without having to start from nothing.

There would be plenty of problems, Haxe-generated C++ or C can not simply be used like that because it depends on its own standard lib implementation and a garbage collector. It think starting from nothing would be easier - but most required functionality lingers somewhere in Kore or Krom already, a sys impl really isn't that much work and if nobody sends a pull request I'll get to it myself eventually.

OK, good to know. I might try my hand at implementing it, then, if nothing else gets in the way. I'm going to need to learn some C/C++ anyway.

Cool Spot. I'll help out if you run into any issues.
