Introduction to fs-jetpack

fs-jetpack is a powerful library for handling file system operations in a more intuitive and flexible way. It provides dozens of useful API methods that simplify tasks such as reading, writing, copying, and manipulating files and directories. This guide will introduce you to fs-jetpack and demonstrate its capabilities through several API examples and a comprehensive application example.

API Examples

Reading Files

  const jetpack = require('fs-jetpack');
  const content = jetpack.read('file.txt', 'utf8');
  console.log(content);

Writing Files

  const data = 'Hello, fs-jetpack!';
  jetpack.write('output.txt', data);

Copying Files

  jetpack.copy('source.txt', 'destination.txt');

Deleting Files

  jetpack.remove('file-to-delete.txt');

Ensuring Directories Exist

  jetpack.dir('new-directory');

Inspecting Files or Directories

  const info = jetpack.inspect('file.txt');
  console.log(info);

Finding Files with Patterns

  const files = jetpack.find('my-dir', { matching: '*.txt' });
  console.log(files);

Application Example

Let’s create a simple app that combines several fs-jetpack methods to perform complex file system operations.

  const jetpack = require('fs-jetpack');

  // Ensure directory structure
  jetpack.dir('project');
  jetpack.dir('project/data');
  
  // Write some initial data
  jetpack.write('project/data/info.txt', 'This is a sample project.');
  
  // Read and log the data
  const data = jetpack.read('project/data/info.txt', 'utf8');
  console.log(data);
  
  // Copy the file to a backup location
  jetpack.copy('project/data/info.txt', 'project/data/info_backup.txt');
  
  // List all text files in the data directory
  const files = jetpack.find('project/data', { matching: '*.txt' });
  console.log(files);
  
  // Clean up the project directory
  jetpack.remove('project');

With fs-jetpack, complex file system operations become straightforward and manageable. Integrate fs-jetpack into your projects to enhance your file-handling capabilities.
