Data types

FileContents

Represents a file with contents, either instantiated programmatically:

new FileContents()

or from the file system

FileContents.read("path/someFile.xxx")

classDiagram
    class FileContents {
        name: string
        lastModified: Date
        contents: string
        encoding: BufferEncoding
        write(): Promise<void>
        read(fileName, declaredEncoding)$: FileContents
        readOrNew(fileName, declaredEncoding)$: FileContents
        getLang(filePath)$: FileContentsLang
        getContents(fileName, declaredEncoding)$
    }
    class FileContentsLang {
        lang: string | undefined
        variants: string[]
    }
    FileContents --> FileContentsLang: lang

• static read(fileName, declaredEncoding) creates FileContents from a file path.
• static readOrNew(fileName, declaredEncoding) reads a file or instantiate a brand new SsgFile if it doesn't exist.
• static getLang(filePath): SsgFileLang guesses a file language and its language file variants in the same directory.
• static getContents(fileName, declaredEncoding) gets the text contents of a file, and how it is encoded.
• write() writes the file contents according to its encoding.

FileContentsLang represents a file language and the detected file variants.

An HtmlFileContents is available from ssg-api.

Functions

• toBufferEncoding (encoding) ccnverts encoding names to Node's buffer encoding names.
• detectEncoding (filePath) detects the encoding of some file contents.
• detectContentsEncoding (buffer) detects the encoding of some contents.
• ensureDirectoryOf (filePath) checks if a directory exists and, if not, creates it.
• writeFile (filePath, contents, encoding) writes a file. If the file directory doesn't exit, it is created.
• subDirs (fromDir): Promise<Dirent[] gets a list of subdirectories.
• subDirsNames (fromDir): Promise<string[]> gets a list of subdirectories' names.
• findDirs (fromDirs, excludedDirs): Promise<string[]> finds directories under a set of dirs.
• findDirsContaining (fileName, exclude?): Promise<string[]> finds directories containing a file (but other).
• findSubDirs (ofDir, excludedDirs = []): Promise<string[]> finds subdirectories of a dir.
• copy (toDir, sourcePatterns, options): Promise<string[]> copies files to a destination directory.
• copyFiles (sourceFiles, toDir) {): string[] copies multiple files to a directory.
• copyFile (sourceFilePath, destDir): string copies a file to a directory.

Import

For instance:

import { FileContents, copy } from "@javarome/fileutil"
