README
make-dir
Make a directory and its parents if needed - Think
mkdir -p
Advantages over mkdirp
- Promise API (Async/await ready!)
- Fixes many
mkdirp
issues: #96 #70 #66 - 100% test coverage
- CI-tested on macOS, Linux, and Windows
- Actively maintained
- Doesn't bundle a CLI
- Uses the native
fs.mkdir/mkdirSync
recursive
option in Node.js >=10.12.0 unless overridden
Install
$ npm install make-dir
Usage
$ pwd
/Users/sindresorhus/fun
$ tree
.
const makeDir = require('make-dir');
(async () => {
const path = await makeDir('unicorn/rainbow/cake');
console.log(path);
//=> '/Users/sindresorhus/fun/unicorn/rainbow/cake'
})();
$ tree
.
└── unicorn
└── rainbow
└── cake
Multiple directories:
const makeDir = require('make-dir');
(async () => {
const paths = await Promise.all([
makeDir('unicorn/rainbow'),
makeDir('foo/bar')
]);
console.log(paths);
/*
[
'/Users/sindresorhus/fun/unicorn/rainbow',
'/Users/sindresorhus/fun/foo/bar'
]
*/
})();
API
makeDir(path, options?)
Returns a Promise
for the path to the created directory.
makeDir.sync(path, options?)
Returns the path to the created directory.
path
Type: string
Directory to create.
options
Type: object
mode
Type: integer
\
Default: 0o777
Directory permissions.
fs
Type: object
\
Default: require('fs')
Use a custom fs
implementation. For example graceful-fs
.
Using a custom fs
implementation will block the use of the native recursive
option if fs.mkdir
or fs.mkdirSync
is not the native function.
