node-libuv-fs

node-libuv-fs is a rebuilt of the nodejs binding to libuvs filesystem api. The idea behind this is quite simple. It should just give an idea how the simple bindings work - there is no further use case.

Installation

You can install node-libuv-fs by using npm:

npm install libuv-fs

If you have done this you should be able to access most common apis through the node-libuv-fs module.

var fs = require('libuv-fs');

Documentation

In the following I will list a small api documentation about the supported bindings.

fs.open(path, flags, mode)

var fd = fs.open('./README.md', 0, 0777);
// outputs file descriptor to console
console.log(fd);

fs.open(path, flags, mode, cb)

fs.open('./README.md', 0, 0777, function(err, fd) {
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log(fd);    
});

fs.read(path, buffer, offset, length, position, [callback])

fs.open('./README.md', 0, 0777, function(err, fd) {
    var buf = new Buffer(1024);
    
    fs.read(fd, buf, 0, 1024, -1, function(err, read) {
        console.log(buf);
    })
});

fs.close(fd, [callback])

fs.open('./README.md', 0, 0777, function(err, fd) {
    fs.close(fd);
});
