📥 Installation

npm install diskio-core

📚 Use case

The DiskIO class is a utility that allows you to reserve, allocate, and optimize disk space usage, trying to ensure efficient file handling. It is designed to be used in a Node.js environment.

📋 Features

  • Reserve disk space for a specific amount of bytes.
  • Allocate disk space for a specific amount of bytes.
  • Optimize disk space usage by allocating and freeing disk space as needed.
  • Create, read, and delete files.
  • Get information about the disk and DiskIO usage.

📖 Usage

DiskIO

The DiskIO class is used to create an instance of the DiskIO class. It requires two parameters: the path to the directory where the DiskIO will be created and the amount of bytes to reserve for the DiskIO.

import { DiskIO } from 'diskio-core';

const diskio = new DiskIO('./mocks/diskio-a', 10 * 1024 * 1024);
// Need to wait for the DiskIO to be ready
await diskio.ready;

DiskIO.information

The information property is used to get information about the DiskIO and the DiskIO usage. It has two methods: disk and diskio.

DiskIO.information.disk

The disk method is used to get information about the disk usage. It returns an object with the following properties:

  • filesystem: The filesystem type.
  • size: The total size of the disk in bytes.
  • used: The amount of used space in bytes.
  • available: The amount of available space in bytes.
  • capacity: The percentage of used space.
  • mount: The mount point of the disk.
const information = await diskio.information.disk();

console.log(information);
/*
{
    filesystem: 'ext4',
    size: 1073741824,
    used: 104857600,
    available: 996147200,
    capacity: '100%',
    mount: '/'
}
*/

DiskIO.information.diskio

The diskio method is used to get information about the DiskIO usage. It returns an object with the following properties:

  • size: The size of the DiskIO in bytes.
  • used: The amount of used space in bytes.
  • available: The amount of available space in bytes.
  • capacity: The percentage of used space.
const information = await diskio.information.diskio();

console.log(information);
/*
{
    size: 104857600,
    used: 104857600,
    available: 0,
    capacity: '100%'
}
*/

DiskIO.create

The create method is used to create a new file in the DiskIO. It requires one parameter: the name of the file to be created.

NOTE: It will use and UUID to create a folder system to improve performance. Save name to rerieve it later.

NOTE: It's have a sync version -> createSync.

const file = await diskio.create('test.txt');

console.log(file.name); // 7cb79b23/b098/4c56/917c/005abaf72fd5/test.txt

await file.close();

DiskIO.get

The get method is used to get a file from the DiskIO.

It requires one parameter: the name of the file to be retrieved.

Optionally, you can set the second parameter to true to check if the file exists. If file does not exist, it will throw an error.

NOTE: Is not required that the file exists in the DiskIO if you set the second parameter to false.

NOTE: It's have a sync version -> getSync.

const file = await diskio.get('test.txt');

await file.close();

DiskIO.read

The read method is used to read a file from the DiskIO. It requires three parameters: the file handle, the starting position, and the number of bytes to read.

NOTE: It's have a sync version -> readSync.

const file = await diskio.get('test.txt');
// Using diskio
// const buffer = await diskio.read(file['fh'], 0, 1024);
// Using file, better way
const buffer = await file.read(0, 1024);

console.log(buffer.toString()); // Hello world!

await file.close();

DiskIO.write

The write method is used to write a file to the DiskIO. It requires three parameters: the file handle, the data to be written, and the starting position.

NOTE: It's have a sync version -> writeSync.

const file = await diskio.get('test.txt');

const buffer = Buffer.from('Hello world!');
// Using diskio
await diskio.write(file['fh'], buffer, 0);
// Using file, better way
await file.write(buffer, 0);

await file.close();

DiskIO.delete

The delete method is used to delete a file from the DiskIO. It requires two parameters: the file handle and the name of the file to be deleted.

NOTE: It will delete all the folders and files in the path that are not empty.

const file = await diskio.get('test.txt');
// Using diskio
await diskio.delete(file['fh'], file.name);
// Using file, better way
await file.delete();
