@ohos.file.fileuri (File URI)

The fileUri module allows the uniform resource identifier (URI) of a file to be obtained based on the file path. With the file URI, you can use the APIs provided by @ohos.file.fs to operate the file.

NOTE

The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 9. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.
