# @npmcli/fs | |
polyfills, and extensions, of the core `fs` module. | |
## Features | |
- `fs.cp` polyfill for node < 16.7.0 | |
- `fs.withTempDir` added | |
- `fs.readdirScoped` added | |
- `fs.moveFile` added | |
## `fs.withTempDir(root, fn, options) -> Promise` | |
### Parameters | |
- `root`: the directory in which to create the temporary directory | |
- `fn`: a function that will be called with the path to the temporary directory | |
- `options` | |
- `tmpPrefix`: a prefix to be used in the generated directory name | |
### Usage | |
The `withTempDir` function creates a temporary directory, runs the provided | |
function (`fn`), then removes the temporary directory and resolves or rejects | |
based on the result of `fn`. | |
```js | |
const fs = require('@npmcli/fs') | |
const os = require('os') | |
// this function will be called with the full path to the temporary directory | |
// it is called with `await` behind the scenes, so can be async if desired. | |
const myFunction = async (tempPath) => { | |
return 'done!' | |
} | |
const main = async () => { | |
const result = await fs.withTempDir(os.tmpdir(), myFunction) | |
// result === 'done!' | |
} | |
main() | |
``` | |
## `fs.readdirScoped(root) -> Promise` | |
### Parameters | |
- `root`: the directory to read | |
### Usage | |
Like `fs.readdir` but handling `@org/module` dirs as if they were | |
a single entry. | |
```javascript | |
const readdir = require('readdir-scoped-modules') | |
const entries = await readdir('node_modules') | |
// entries will be something like: ['a', '@org/foo', '@org/bar'] | |
``` | |
## `fs.moveFile(source, dest, options) -> Promise` | |
A fork of [move-file](https://github.com/sindresorhus/move-file) with | |
support for Common JS. | |
### Highlights | |
- Promise API. | |
- Supports moving a file across partitions and devices. | |
- Optionally prevent overwriting an existing file. | |
- Creates non-existent destination directories for you. | |
- Automatically recurses when source is a directory. | |
### Parameters | |
- `source`: File, or directory, you want to move. | |
- `dest`: Where you want the file or directory moved. | |
- `options` | |
- `overwrite` (`boolean`, default: `true`): Overwrite existing destination file(s). | |
### Usage | |
The built-in | |
[`fs.rename()`](https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html#fs_fs_rename_oldpath_newpath_callback) | |
is just a JavaScript wrapper for the C `rename(2)` function, which doesn't | |
support moving files across partitions or devices. This module is what you | |
would have expected `fs.rename()` to be. | |
```js | |
const { moveFile } = require('@npmcli/fs'); | |
(async () => { | |
await moveFile('source/unicorn.png', 'destination/unicorn.png'); | |
console.log('The file has been moved'); | |
})(); | |
``` | |
