}, function(reason) {
  // Something went wrong
});

Mixins

For all methods callbacks are optional, if provided they will be used otherwise a promise will be returned.

fs.mkdirp(path[, mode][, callback])

Recursively create directories if they don't exist.

var xfs = require('fs-wishlist').replace();
 
xfs.mkdirp('/one/two/three').then(function() {
  // Directories created
}, function(reason) {
  // Something went wrong!
});

fs.rmdirp(path[, callback])

Recursively removes the given directory.

var xfs = require('fs-wishlist').replace();
 
xfs.rmdirp('/one').then(function() {
  // All directories and files removed from `/one` and below
}, function(reason) {
  // Something went wrong!
});

fs.readdirp(path[, callback])

Recursively reads the given directory.

var xfs = require('fs-wishlist').replace();
 
xfs.readdirp('/one').then(function(files) {
  // `files` contains a list of all files and directories in `/one` recursively
}, function(reason) {
  // Something went wrong!
});

fs.copyDir(sourcePath, destinationPath[, callback])

Recursively copies the contents of a directory to the destination, creates the destination directories if they do not exist. This overwrites the files if they already exist, and directories themselves are not copied but instead a new directory is created of the same name.

var xfs = require('fs-wishlist').replace();
 
xfs.copyDir('/one', '/two').then(function() {
  // All of the same directories created in the destination and the files are copied recursively
}, function(reason) {
  // Something went wrong!
});
