PurePosixPath
PurePosixPath is a class in Python's pathlib module that represents a POSIX-style filesystem path using pure string operations. It implements POSIX path semantics with forward slashes and deliberately does not perform any I/O or access the real filesystem. This makes it suitable for manipulating and constructing path strings in a cross-platform, OS-independent way, especially when dealing with POSIX-style paths on non-POSIX platforms or when parsing user-provided paths.
PurePosixPath is part of the PurePath family and is a subclass of PurePath. It differs from the
Common attributes and methods include: anchor (the initial separator or drive, e.g., '/'), parent and parents (the
Because it does not perform filesystem access, PurePosixPath is especially useful for cross-platform tooling that needs
