nor-fs

Asynchronous filesystem library with chainable Q-based promises for Node.js.

It also has chainable synchronous interface.

Sample Use Case

So, let's say you need to do something with the filesystem and Node.js.

You also want to use promises. (Actually, we have fs.sync for synchronous calls, too.)

Sure, you could use q-io -- but you would still feel like you're missing something, it could be easier and simpler!

The solution for the problem is to use our library which uses both Q and nor-extend to enable chainable promises.

Here's an example of creating a file named hello.txt and changing permissions:

fs.path("hello.txt").writeFile("Hello World").chmod(600).chown(1000, 1000).then(function() {
	console.log("hello.txt created succesfully");
}).fail(function(err) {
	console.error("Error: Failed to create hello.txt: " + err);
}).done();

Here is how you would need to do it with traditional promises:

fs.writeFile("hello.txt", "Hello World").then(function() {
	return fs.chmod("hello.txt", 600);
}).then(function() {
	return fs.chown("hello.txt", 1000, 1000);
}).then(function() {
	console.log("hello.txt created succesfully");
}).fail(function(err) {
	console.error("Error: Failed to create hello.txt: " + err);
}).done();

Quick Introduction

All methods are wrappers for fs module (Node.js File System module) with same names and arguments when possible.

Asynchronous methods

Asynchronous methods take the same arguments as fs but instead of callbacks every asynchronous method returns an extended Q promise which can be chained.

fs.writeFile("hello.txt", "Hello World").chmod("hello.txt", "0600").then(function() {
	...
}).fail(function(err) {
	...
}).done();

You can shorten it with the path-based API:

fs.path("hello.txt").writeFile("Hello World").chmod("0600").then(function() {
	...
}).fail(function(err) {
	...
}).done();

Synchronous methods

Synchronous methods take same arguments as fs module but are chainable, and methods don't have leading Sync in their names.

Synchronous API is provided through fs.sync:

fs.sync.writeFile("hello.txt", "Hello World").chmod("hello.txt", "0600");

You can shorten it with the path-based API:

fs.sync.path("hello.txt").writeFile("Hello World").chmod("0600");

We'll introduce new features when neccessary at a good pace. We'll try our best not to break backwards compatibility and if that happens we'll fix it as fast as possible.

TODO

Full API Documentation

require("nor-fs")

The root of the library is an instance of FileSystem.

It also has these properties:

• fs.FileSystem
• fs.Path
• fs.Descriptor
• fs.SyncFileSystem
• fs.sync.Path
• fs.sync.Descriptor
• fs.sync -- Instance of class fs.SyncFileSystem

And these methods:

• fs.path(name) -- Returns instance of fs.Path(name)
• fs.sync.path(name) -- Returns instance of fs.sync.Path(name)

Class FileSystem

new FileSystem()

The constructor of the FileSystem objects.

Warning! You should not need to use it directly. However if you find any essential use for it in the userland, we would like hear it!

fs.rename(oldPath, newPath)

Renames a file from oldPath to newPath. Asynchronous rename(2) which renames a file from oldPath to newPath and returns an extended chainable promise.

fs.rename("foo.txt", "bar.txt").then(function(){
	console.log("Renamed succesfully!");
}).fail(function(err) {
	console.error("Error: " + err);
}).done();

See also fs.rename from Node.js API Documentation

fs.ftruncate(fd, len)

Truncates a file pointed by a file descriptor to a specified length. Asynchronous ftruncate(2) which returns an extended chainable promise.

fs.open("foo.txt", "r").then(function(fd){
	return fs.ftruncate(fd.valueOf(), 1000).close(fd.valueOf());
}).then(function() {
	console.log("Truncated succesfully!");
}).fail(function(err) {
	console.error("Error: " + err);
}).done();

Note! Usually there is no need to call this method because fs.open() returns an instance of fs.Descriptor which can be chained.

See also fs.ftruncate from Node.js API Documentation.

fs.truncate(path, len)

Truncates a file pointed by a path to a specified length.

Asynchronous truncate(2) which returns an extended chainable promise.

See also fs.truncate at Node.js API documentation.

See also fs.chown from the original Node.js API documentation.

Warning! It is automatically tested, but not so well, since normally users cannot change ownership of a file to other users.

}).fail(function(err) {
	console.error("Error: " + err);

Note! Usually there is no need to call this method because fs.open() returns an instance of fs.Descriptor which can be chained.

See also fs.fchown in the original Node.js API documentation.

fs.lchown(path, uid, gid)

Asynchronous lchown(2) which returns an extended chainable promise.
