Working with folders in Node.js

The Node.js fs core module provides many handy methods you can use to work with folders.

Check if a folder exists

Use fs.access() (and its promise-based fsPromises.access() counterpart) to check if the folder exists and Node.js can access it with its permissions.

Create a new folder

Use fs.mkdir() or fs.mkdirSync() or fsPromises.mkdir() to create a new folder.

const module "node:fs"fs = var require: NodeJS.Require
(id: string) => anyUsed to import modules, `JSON`, and local files.
@sincev0.1.13require('node:fs');

const const folderName: "/Users/joe/test"folderName = '/Users/joe/test';

try {
  if (!module "node:fs"fs.function existsSync(path: fs.PathLike): booleanReturns `true` if the path exists, `false` otherwise.

For detailed information, see the documentation of the asynchronous version of
this API: 
{@link 
exists
}
.

`fs.exists()` is deprecated, but `fs.existsSync()` is not. The `callback` parameter to `fs.exists()` accepts parameters that are inconsistent with other
Node.js callbacks. `fs.existsSync()` does not use a callback.

```js
import { existsSync } from 'node:fs';

if (existsSync('/etc/passwd'))
  console.log('The path exists.');
```
@sincev0.1.21existsSync(const folderName: "/Users/joe/test"folderName)) {
    module "node:fs"fs.function mkdirSync(path: fs.PathLike, options?: fs.Mode | (fs.MakeDirectoryOptions & {
    recursive?: false | undefined;
}) | null): void (+2 overloads)Synchronous mkdir(2) - create a directory.
@parampath A path to a file. If a URL is provided, it must use the `file:` protocol.@paramoptions Either the file mode, or an object optionally specifying the file mode and whether parent folders
should be created. If a string is passed, it is parsed as an octal integer. If not specified, defaults to `0o777`.mkdirSync(const folderName: "/Users/joe/test"folderName);
  }
} catch (var err: unknownerr) {
  var console: ConsoleThe `console` module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the
JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.

The module exports two specific components:

* A `Console` class with methods such as `console.log()`, `console.error()` and `console.warn()` that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
* A global `console` instance configured to write to [`process.stdout`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstdout) and
[`process.stderr`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstderr). The global `console` can be used without importing the `node:console` module.

_**Warning**_: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the [`note on process I/O`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#a-note-on-process-io) for
more information.

Example using the global `console`:

```js
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:
//   Error: Whoops, something bad happened
//     at [eval]:5:15
//     at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:132:18)
//     at Object.runInThisContext (node:vm:309:38)
//     at node:internal/process/execution:77:19
//     at [eval]-wrapper:6:22
//     at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:76:60)
//     at node:internal/main/eval_string:23:3

const name = 'Will Robinson';
console.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr
```

Example using the `Console` class:

```js
const out = getStreamSomehow();
const err = getStreamSomehow();
const myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);

myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err

const name = 'Will Robinson';
myConsole.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to err
```
@see[source](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/v22.x/lib/console.js)console.Console.error(message?: any, ...optionalParams: any[]): void (+1 overload)Prints to `stderr` with newline. Multiple arguments can be passed, with the
first used as the primary message and all additional used as substitution
values similar to [`printf(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/printf.3.html)
(the arguments are all passed to [`util.format()`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/util.html#utilformatformat-args)).

```js
const code = 5;
console.error('error #%d', code);
// Prints: error #5, to stderr
console.error('error', code);
// Prints: error 5, to stderr
```

If formatting elements (e.g. `%d`) are not found in the first string then
[`util.inspect()`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/util.html#utilinspectobject-options) is called on each argument and the
resulting string values are concatenated. See [`util.format()`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/util.html#utilformatformat-args)
for more information.
@sincev0.1.100error(var err: unknownerr);
}

Read the content of a directory

Use fs.readdir() or fs.readdirSync() or fsPromises.readdir() to read the contents of a directory.

This piece of code reads the content of a folder, both files and subfolders, and returns their relative path:

const module "node:fs"fs = var require: NodeJS.Require
(id: string) => anyUsed to import modules, `JSON`, and local files.
@sincev0.1.13require('node:fs');

const const folderPath: "/Users/joe"folderPath = '/Users/joe';

module "node:fs"fs.function readdirSync(path: fs.PathLike, options?: {
    encoding: BufferEncoding | null;
    withFileTypes?: false | undefined;
    recursive?: boolean | undefined;
} | BufferEncoding | null): string[] (+4 overloads)Reads the contents of the directory.

See the POSIX [`readdir(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/readdir.3.html) documentation for more details.

The optional `options` argument can be a string specifying an encoding, or an
object with an `encoding` property specifying the character encoding to use for
the filenames returned. If the `encoding` is set to `'buffer'`,
the filenames returned will be passed as `Buffer` objects.

If `options.withFileTypes` is set to `true`, the result will contain `fs.Dirent` objects.
@sincev0.1.21readdirSync(const folderPath: "/Users/joe"folderPath);

You can get the full path:

fs.readdirSync(folderPath).map(fileName: anyfileName => {
  return path.join(folderPath, fileName: anyfileName);
});

You can also filter the results to only return the files, and exclude the folders:

const module "node:fs"fs = var require: NodeJS.Require
(id: string) => anyUsed to import modules, `JSON`, and local files.
@sincev0.1.13require('node:fs');

const const isFile: (fileName: any) => booleanisFile = fileName: anyfileName => {
  return module "node:fs"fs.const lstatSync: fs.StatSyncFn
(path: fs.PathLike, options?: undefined) => fs.Stats (+6 overloads)lstatSync(fileName: anyfileName).StatsBase<number>.isFile(): booleanisFile();
};

module "node:fs"fs.function readdirSync(path: fs.PathLike, options?: {
    encoding: BufferEncoding | null;
    withFileTypes?: false | undefined;
    recursive?: boolean | undefined;
} | BufferEncoding | null): string[] (+4 overloads)Reads the contents of the directory.

See the POSIX [`readdir(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/readdir.3.html) documentation for more details.

The optional `options` argument can be a string specifying an encoding, or an
object with an `encoding` property specifying the character encoding to use for
the filenames returned. If the `encoding` is set to `'buffer'`,
the filenames returned will be passed as `Buffer` objects.

If `options.withFileTypes` is set to `true`, the result will contain `fs.Dirent` objects.
@sincev0.1.21readdirSync(folderPath)
  .Array<string>.map<any>(callbackfn: (value: string, index: number, array: string[]) => any, thisArg?: any): any[]Calls a defined callback function on each element of an array, and returns an array that contains the results.
@paramcallbackfn A function that accepts up to three arguments. The map method calls the callbackfn function one time for each element in the array.@paramthisArg An object to which the this keyword can refer in the callbackfn function. If thisArg is omitted, undefined is used as the this value.map(fileName: stringfileName => {
    return path.join(folderPath, fileName: stringfileName);
  })
  .Array<any>.filter(predicate: (value: any, index: number, array: any[]) => unknown, thisArg?: any): any[] (+1 overload)Returns the elements of an array that meet the condition specified in a callback function.
@parampredicate A function that accepts up to three arguments. The filter method calls the predicate function one time for each element in the array.@paramthisArg An object to which the this keyword can refer in the predicate function. If thisArg is omitted, undefined is used as the this value.filter(const isFile: (fileName: any) => booleanisFile);

Rename a folder

Use fs.rename() or fs.renameSync() or fsPromises.rename() to rename folder. The first parameter is the current path, the second the new path:

const module "node:fs"fs = var require: NodeJS.Require
(id: string) => anyUsed to import modules, `JSON`, and local files.
@sincev0.1.13require('node:fs');

module "node:fs"fs.function rename(oldPath: fs.PathLike, newPath: fs.PathLike, callback: fs.NoParamCallback): voidAsynchronously rename file at `oldPath` to the pathname provided
as `newPath`. In the case that `newPath` already exists, it will
be overwritten. If there is a directory at `newPath`, an error will
be raised instead. No arguments other than a possible exception are
given to the completion callback.

See also: [`rename(2)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/rename.2.html).

```js
import { rename } from 'node:fs';

rename('oldFile.txt', 'newFile.txt', (err) => {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log('Rename complete!');
});
```
@sincev0.0.2rename('/Users/joe', '/Users/roger', err: NodeJS.ErrnoException | nullerr => {

  var console: ConsoleThe `console` module provides a simple debugging console that is similar to the
JavaScript console mechanism provided by web browsers.

The module exports two specific components:

* A `Console` class with methods such as `console.log()`, `console.error()` and `console.warn()` that can be used to write to any Node.js stream.
* A global `console` instance configured to write to [`process.stdout`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstdout) and
[`process.stderr`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#processstderr). The global `console` can be used without importing the `node:console` module.

_**Warning**_: The global console object's methods are neither consistently
synchronous like the browser APIs they resemble, nor are they consistently
asynchronous like all other Node.js streams. See the [`note on process I/O`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/process.html#a-note-on-process-io) for
more information.

Example using the global `console`:

```js
console.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to stdout
console.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints error message and stack trace to stderr:
//   Error: Whoops, something bad happened
//     at [eval]:5:15
//     at Script.runInThisContext (node:vm:132:18)
//     at Object.runInThisContext (node:vm:309:38)
//     at node:internal/process/execution:77:19
//     at [eval]-wrapper:6:22
//     at evalScript (node:internal/process/execution:76:60)
//     at node:internal/main/eval_string:23:3

const name = 'Will Robinson';
console.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to stderr
```

Example using the `Console` class:

```js
const out = getStreamSomehow();
const err = getStreamSomehow();
const myConsole = new console.Console(out, err);

myConsole.log('hello world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.log('hello %s', 'world');
// Prints: hello world, to out
myConsole.error(new Error('Whoops, something bad happened'));
// Prints: [Error: Whoops, something bad happened], to err

const name = 'Will Robinson';
myConsole.warn(`Danger ${name}! Danger!`);
// Prints: Danger Will Robinson! Danger!, to err
```
@see[source](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/v22.x/lib/console.js)console.Console.log(message?: any, ...optionalParams: any[]): void (+1 overload)Prints to `stdout` with newline. Multiple arguments can be passed, with the
first used as the primary message and all additional used as substitution
values similar to [`printf(3)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/printf.3.html)
(the arguments are all passed to [`util.format()`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/util.html#utilformatformat-args)).

```js
const count = 5;
console.log('count: %d', count);
// Prints: count: 5, to stdout
console.log('count:', count);
// Prints: count: 5, to stdout
```

See [`util.format()`](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v22.x/api/util.html#utilformatformat-args) for more information.
