This is my module example for managing photo albums based on a directory. We assume that, given a path, there is an albums sub-folder, and each of its individual sub-folders are themselves the albums. Files in those sub-folders are photos.
The album manager exposes a single function, albums
, which returns
an array of Album
objects for each album it contains.
The album object has the following two properties and one method:
-
name
-- The name of the album -
path
-- The path to the album -
photos()
-- Calling this method will return all the album's photos
The command to link module on node modules folder patter is
sudo npm link
