# Path

Updated for version 3.38

## Path

An utility class for dealing with paths. Although in the past you'd call the class using `BeardLib.Utils.Path` (and still can), it was shortened because of its heavy use; so now you can call `Path` or `path`.

| GetDirectory(String path)     | String      | Returns the directory of `path` which may be a file or a directory. Directory is being the folder that the file/folder resides in                                                                                |
| GetFileName(String path)      | String      | Returns the file name from the provided path `path`                                                                                                                                                              |

| Normalize(String str)         | String      | Returns a normalized version of the path `str`. Currently cleans the separators to all be '/'                                                                                                                    |
| Combine(String start, ...)    | String      | Returns a normalized and combined version of the passed paths. Starting with `start` and adding the passed `...`, `start` cannot be null! Example: `Path:Combine("path", "to", "file")` returns `"path/to/file"` |
