dmd can read files at compile time using the import function [1]
What are you trying to do?
Incorporate HTML template files into a CGI binary. After putting
[ and ] around the list in LS this works:
```TemplateStore.d
module TemplateStore;
import std.path;
import std.conv;
import std.file;
immutable string[string] template_map;
static this ()
{
immutable LS = import (`LS`);
immutable template_files = mixin(LS);
static foreach (f; template_files) {
pragma (msg, `reading template <` ~ f ~ ">");
template_map[f] = import (f);
}
}
```

Nothing. You can't call C functions during CTFE, because the compiler
doesn't have their source code, and all functions that interact with the
filesystem have to ultimately call C functions. So, you can't use something
like dirEntries with CTFE.
The only way that you can do anything along the lines of reading files
during CTFE is to use string imports to insert the text of a file directly
into the module.

dirEntries within static foreach: memory.d(827): Error: fakePureErrno cannot be interpreted at compile time, because it has no available source code
I am trying to get this code compiled:
```TemplateStore.d
module TemplateStore;
import std.path;
import std.conv;
import std.file;
immutable string[string] template_map;
static this ()
{
static foreach (f; dirEntries (``, `*.html`,
SpanMode.shallow)) {
pragma (msg, `reading template <` ~ f ~ ">");
template_map[f] = import (f);
}
}
```
dmd v2.082.0 says
...linux/bin64/../../src/druntime/import/core/memory.d(827):
Error: fakePureErrno cannot be interpreted at compile time,
because it has no available source code
Error: invalid foreach aggregate
Error: invalid foreach aggregate
If I use an immutable array of file names instead of dirEntries
the code compiles, but I don't want to update that array each
time a new template file is added.
As a workaround I wrote a helper which writes the quoted
filenames comma-separated into a file named `LS` using this
fragment:
foreach (f; dirEntries (``, `*.html`, SpanMode.shallow))
writefln ("`%s`,", f);
Then I try to convince the dmd compiler to read LS and use its
content as initializer for the immutable array template_files:
immutable LS = import (`LS`);
pragma (msg, `LS = <` ~ LS ~ `>`);
immutable template_files = [
mixin(LS)
];
dmd now says (1) if the list in LS has a trailing comma:
TemplateStore.d-mixin-13(26): Error: expression expected, not
End of File
or (2) if the list has no trailing comma:
TemplateStore.d-mixin-13(13): Error: Using the result of a
comma expression is not allowed
TemplateStore.d-mixin-13(14): Error: Using the result of a
comma expression is not allowed
TemplateStore.d-mixin-13(15): Error: Using the result of a
comma expression is not allowed
:
What can I do about it?
