Tempper

A library to easily create temp dir and inject files. Recommended for test suites.

Get Started

const Tempper = require('tempper');
 
// The first temp sesison is started automatically here,
// A diretory will be creted inside your OS's temp dir.
let tmp = new Tempper();
 
// This new directory is now your current dir.
console.log(process.cwd());
 
// Inject a file from your former directory into the new tmp one.
tmp.addFile('file-from-old-dir.conf', './same-file');
 
// Clear the temp directory and get a new one.
tmp.refresh();
 
console.log(process.cwd());
 
// Shortcut to create folders on the tmp dir.
tmp.mkdir('my-dir');
tmp.mkdir('my-recursive-dir/new-dir');
 
// Shortcut to remove both files os directories.
tmp.rm('my-recursive-dir');
tmp.rm('same-file');
 
// Assert wether paths exist or not.
tmp.assertMissing('my-recursive-dir/new-dir');
tmp.assertExists('same-file'); // => should throw
 
// Once you're done, erase the tempper diretory for good.
tmp.clear();
 
// And you'll be back to your old working dir.
console.log(process.cwd());
