quicksearch() + file attributes?

[highend]

Would it be possible for quicksearch to gather these specific file attributes

01. last modified, last accessed, created times
02. attributes (h,s,r, etc.)
03. file size

without getting slowed down (too much)?

I know I could easily use folderreport() (which can do a lot more than that) but quicksearch() is ultra-fast
and folderreport() (can be) really slow...

Yes, would be absolutely possible.

Does it make sense to add a wish for it? I'm thinking of being able to create customized syncs (depending on what you'll add when two-way sync is done)...

[admin]

I would do it, but only in a fixed hard-coded format (otherwise customization options will become endless): ISO 8601 dates, |-separated fields, raw bytes file size.

General format:

Code: Select all

name|size|modified|created|accessed|attributes

Example:

Code: Select all

That would be totally ok for me. I'd parse it via regex anyway.

But I'd need the full path instead of only the name

[admin]

OK, you get the full path for free on top of it.

[highend]

With sugar, please! And thanks for adding it

Cool stuff! One minor little thing...

It would be a lot easier here to separate files from folders when we enhance the item list by:

name|f/d|size|modified|created|accessed|attributes

e.g.:

R:\new folder|d|0|2015-11-01 21:11:00|2015-11-01 21:11:00|2015-11-01 21:11:00|---D--------
R:\new file.txt|f|0|2015-11-01 21:11:00|2015-11-01 21:11:00|2015-11-01 21:11:00|----A-----I-

Because files can have a filesize of 0 like folders and e.g. linux files have no dots that could
be checked for.

I know I could check for "D" in attributes but that would require more effort...

If it's not too late...

[admin]

Not too late, but there is also the "D" in attributes... it would be tautological.

I shouldn't edit my thread while you're writing an answer^^

But ok, I can use formatlist() to filter for files / folders if I want. I can live with that
