# create method

Future<Directory> create ({bool recursive: false })

Creates the directory with this name.

If `recursive` is false, only the last directory in the path is created. If `recursive` is true, all non-existing path components are created. If the directory already exists nothing is done.

Returns a `Future<Directory>` that completes with this directory once it has been created. If the directory cannot be created the future completes with an exception.

## Implementation

    Future<Directory> create({bool recursive: false});
