How can I use a java.nio.file.Path object to navigate to a sub-path?
I'd have thought that something like path = path.subFolder(string) would work where string specifies a sub-folder relative to the initial path.
But there doesn't seem to be such a method available.
Before "I go in and out of a string", I'd like to check if I've missed something.
You are looking for Path.resolve(other).
Quoting its Javadoc:
For example, suppose that the name separator is
"/"and a path represents"foo/bar", then invoking this method with the path string"gus"will result in the Path"foo/bar/gus".
Sample code:
Path path = Paths.get("/foo/bar");
Path subFolder = path.resolve("gus"); // represents the path "/foo/bar/gus"
You can use the #get() utility method in the java.nio.file.Paths class:
Paths.get(String first, String... more)
This is documented as:
Converts a path string, or a sequence of strings that when joined form a path string, to a Path.
