Rename library/ to src/
We've always considered renaming this directory, as it's not a common
standard to name `library` the directory where the source code of a
library it. Having it as `src/` is a common pattern we find in several
PHP libraries these days.

Directory

  • Directory()

Validates if the given path is a directory.

v::directory()->assert(__DIR__);
// Validation passes successfully

v::directory()->assert(__FILE__);
// → "/path/to/file" must be a directory

This validator will consider SplFileInfo instances, so you can do something like:

v::directory()->assert(new SplFileInfo('src/'));
// Validation passes successfully

v::directory()->assert(dir('/'));
// Validation passes successfully
