+title: Traversing Local Files
+weight: 110
+---
+
+## Traversing Local Files
+
+Hugo includes a way to traverse local files.
+This is done using the 'ReadDir' function.
+
+## Using ReadDir
+
+ReadDir takes a single string input that is relative to the root directory of the site. It returns an array of [os.FileInfo](https://golang.org/pkg/os/#FileInfo)
+
+Let's create a shortcode to build a file index with links using ReadDir.
+
+'fileindex.html'
+
+ <table style="width=100%">
+ <th>Size in bytes</th>
+ <th>Name</th>
+ {{$dir := .Get "dir"}}
+ {{ $url := .Get "baseurl" }}
+
+ {{ $files := ReadDir $dir }}
+ {{ range $files }}
+ <tr>
+ <td>{{.Size}}</td>
+ <td>
+ <a href="{{$url}}{{.Name | urlize }}"> {{.Name}}</a>
+ </td>
+ </tr>
+ {{ end }}
+ </table>
+
+Now lets use it to list the css files used on this site
+
+ {{</* fileindex dir="static/css" baseurl="/css/" */>}}
+
+Is rendered as:
+
+{{< fileindex dir="static/css/" baseurl="/css/">}}
