how to get URL Path for directory inside Document directory?

Question

How can I get url path for a particular directory inside Document Directory.

like Document/Art/

My code

- (NSURL *)localRoot {
if (_localRoot != nil) {
    return _localRoot;
}

NSArray * paths = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] URLsForDirectory:NSDocumentDirectory inDomains:NSUserDomainMask];

_localRoot = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
return _localRoot;
}

The above code is url path for Documents directory but I need Art document directory path.

Solution 1

NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);

NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];

NSString *yourArtPath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"/Art"];

Solution 2

Use this

NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);

NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];

NSString *appFile_a = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"/Art"];

[Sumit Mundra]

add this line also NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:appFile_a];

[Vijay]

- (NSURL *)localRoot { if (_localRoot != nil) { return _localRoot; } NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES); NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0]; NSString *artdirectoryPath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"/Art"]; _localRoot=[NSURL URLWithString:artdirectoryPath]; return _localRoot; } this my updated Code but still i got error..

[Vijay]

while go to path -[NSFileManager contentsOfDirectoryAtURL:includingPropertiesForKeys:options:‌​error:]: URL is nil'

[rptwsthi]

NSString *appFile_a = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@\"Art\"]; have bug at `@"\Art"`

When we use path component then there is no need to add "/" with component
