Get file creation time in Clojure using java.nio

creation-time.clj

(defn creation-time [file]
  (.creationTime
   (java.nio.file.Files/readAttributes
    (.toPath file)
    java.nio.file.attribute.BasicFileAttributes
    (into-array java.nio.file.LinkOption []))))

Many thanks! Saved me a lot of grief this morning!

Generalised as:

(:import [java.nio.file Files FileSystems LinkOption])

(defn file-attribute
  "Return the value of the specified `attribute` of the file at `file-path`
   in the current default file system. The argument `attribute` may be passed
   as a keyword or a string, but must be an attribute name understood be 
   `java.nio.file.Files`."
  [file-path attribute]
  (Files/getAttribute
   (.getPath
    (FileSystems/getDefault)
    (str file-path)
    (into-array java.lang.String []))
   (name attribute)
   (into-array LinkOption [])))

Thank you very much, I will use your solution from now on!
