What is a file? (in ofsf)

A file in ofsf is a collection of 14 data points, used by the system to handle the file.

1. Type

Represents the file type, indicated by its extension (e.g., .osl, .icn, .txt).

2. Name

The name of the file, stored as a string.

in a file called "hello.txt" this would be "hello"

3. Location

The file's location in the system, expressed as a file path.

Examples of the location might be "origin/(c) users/mist/documents" that describes the file is in the user's documents folder

4. Data

The main storage field for the file's content:

  • For .osl scripts, this stores the program data.

  • For folders, this is an array of file uuids contained within the folder.

  • For other file types, this holds the primary data.

5. null

Currently redundant storage slot, but may be used in the future

6. X

A flexible field for miscellaneous data associated with the file. Normally used to store the x position of a file in its parent folder (used for things like the position on the desktop)

7. Y

Another field for additional data, similar to X.

8. null

Used to be a unique id, now is unnecessary due to field 14

9. Created

The timestamp (in Unix format) marking when the file was created.

10. Edited

The timestamp (in Unix format) indicating the last time the file was edited.

11. Icon

The icn code that represents the file's icon, used for display purposes.

12. Size

The size of the file in characters.

For folders this will contain the number of files inside the folder

13. Permissions

The access permissions required for applications or users to interact with the file.

Example: ["file editor"]

14. UUID

A system-generated unique identifier for each file. This is managed internally and does not require user interaction.
