Type Alias Path

pub type Path = String;

A path is a string of one or more components, separated by “/”. E.g. foo/bar/baz

Invariants

A valid path must meet the following criteria:

• It cannot be empty.
• It cannot be longer than MAX_PATH_LENGTH.
• It cannot have a leading “/”.
• It cannot have a trailing “/”.
• It must be exactly “.” OR each of its components must be a valid Name.

Paths should be transformed into their canonical forms at client side. For example, a client should convert "foo/bar/.././baz/" to "foo/baz" before using it as a path.
