fs-tree
Builds a hierarchy of directories and files as a single asynchronous operation.
Install
npm install fs-tree
Usage
fsTree = require 'fs-tree'
fsTree! {
ideas = {
colours = {
"green.txt" = "apples, pears"
"white.txt" = "snow"
}
}
}
...creates these directories and files:
./ideas/
./ideas/colours/
./ideas/colours/green.txt (apples, pears)
./ideas/colours/white.txt (snow)
Each entry can be a string, a Buffer
or a node stream (anything that has a .pipe()
method).
The root directory
By default the hierarchy is created in the current working directory.
Make a hierarchy under another directory like this:
fsTree! '/your/root/directory' {
subdir = {
file = "contents"
}
}
Deleting the files you created
Retain a reference to the original tree to destroy it later:
tree = fsTree! {
subdir = {
file = "contents"
}
}
// then later...
tree.destroy()!
Destroying the tree is equivalent to
rm -rf <root directory>
JavaScript?
The examples above are in PogoScript because it's pretty. There is no dependency on PogoScript, so you can use pure JavaScript if you prefer. It returns a promise:
var fsTree = require('fs-tree');
fsTree({
ideas: {
colours: {
"green.txt": "apples, pears",
"white.txt": "snow"
}
}
}).then(function() {
console.log("Tree created!");
}, function (error) {
console.log("uh oh", error);
});
