The fs module provides an API for interacting with the file system in a manner closely modeled around standard POSIX functions.
Goal of this inerface is to be compatible with Node.js File System API
Compatibility objective : 80%
To use this module:
const fs = require('fs');
All file system operations have synchronous and asynchronous forms.
Compatibility : broken
Open, read and return text content of a file. It will throw an exception if it fails.
<string> Path of the file to read fromlet data = fs.readFile('/etc/passwd');
console.info('Data : {0}', data);
Synchronous readdir(3).
<string> Path of the directory<object> OptionsSynchronous stat(2). Returns an instance of fs.Stats.
A fs.Stats object provides information about a file.
Returns true if the fs.Stats object describes a file system directory.
Returns true if the fs.Stats object describes a regular file.
Returns true if the fs.Stats object describes a symbolic link.
<number> The numeric identifier of the device containing the file.<number> The file system specific “Inode” number for the file.<number> A bit-field describing the file type and mode.<number> The number of hard-links that exist for the file.<number> The numeric user identifier of the user that owns the file (POSIX).<number> The size of the file in bytes.<number> The number of blocks allocated for this file.
