@gourmet/promise-create-write-stream

Creates a writable file stream and returns a promise that is fulfilled when the writing is finished and the file is closed.

Basic usage

promiseCreateWriteStream(path, callback, options)
  • callback(ws) is invoked when the stream is ready for writing.
  • Automatically creates the intermediate directories ONLY if a first trial of creating the file fails for the efficiency.
  • Writes to a temporary file ("{path}.saving") and renames when done.

Options in addition to fs.createWriteStream are:

  • useOriginalPath: Don't use a temporary path. (Default: false)
  • dontMakeDirs: Don't make a intermediate directories. (Default: false)
  • mkdirMode: See fs.mkdir(). (Default: 0777)

Because this function renames the file after the writing is complete, you should not depend on "finish" event of the stream for detecting the end of a whole writing task. Use the returned promise instead.
