|
|
- `fs.rm` polyfill for node versions < 14.14.0
|
|
- `fs.mkdir` polyfill adding support for the `recursive` and `force` options in node versions < 10.12.0
|
|
- `fs.copyFile` extended to accept an `owner` option
|
|
- `fs.mkdir` extended to accept an `owner` option
|
|
- `fs.mkdtemp` extended to accept an `owner` option
|
|
- `fs.writeFile` extended to accept an `owner` option
|
|
- `fs.withTempDir` added
|
|
- `fs.withOwner` added
|
|
- `fs.withOwnerSync` added
|
|
- `fs.cp` polyfill for node < 16.7.0
|

|
|
## The `owner` option
|
|
|
|
The `copyFile`, `mkdir`, `mkdtemp`, `writeFile`, and `withTempDir` functions
|
|
all accept a new `owner` property in their options. It can be used in two ways:
|
|
|
|
- `{ owner: { uid: 100, gid: 100 } }` - set the `uid` and `gid` explicitly
|
|
- `{ owner: 100 }` - use one value, will set both `uid` and `gid` the same
|
|
|
|
The special string `'inherit'` may be passed instead of a number, which will
|
|
cause this module to automatically determine the correct `uid` and/or `gid`
|
|
from the nearest existing parent directory of the target.
|
|
|
|
## `fs.withTempDir(root, fn, options) -> Promise`
|
|
|
|
### Parameters
|
|
|
|
- `root`: the directory in which to create the temporary directory
|
|
- `fn`: a function that will be called with the path to the temporary directory
|
|
- `options`
|
|
- `tmpPrefix`: a prefix to be used in the generated directory name
|
|
|
|
### Usage
|
|
|
|
The `withTempDir` function creates a temporary directory, runs the provided
|
|
function (`fn`), then removes the temporary directory and resolves or rejects
|
|
based on the result of `fn`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const fs = require('@npmcli/fs')
|
|
const os = require('os')
|
|
|
|
// this function will be called with the full path to the temporary directory
|
|
// it is called with `await` behind the scenes, so can be async if desired.
|
|
const myFunction = async (tempPath) => {
|
|
return 'done!'
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
const main = async () => {
|
|
const result = await fs.withTempDir(os.tmpdir(), myFunction)
|
|
// result === 'done!'
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
main()
|
|
```
