globby VS fs-extra

Files to be scanned/excluded are defined via globby which is based on node-glob

The snippet above uses globby to find each page.tsx in the app directory (collectPaths). After the file paths are collected, each path is transformed to the url path (createPath). The last step is to create the sitemap (createSitemap) and write to the public directory.

First install globby and prettier.

If you mean node module, try https://www.npmjs.com/package/qnm If you need to search fs by pattern try https://github.com/sindresorhus/globby

We need to do a few things in our local-intercept.js file to identify and load these files. So we are going to use globby again to find our targetables files.

Because of this, we need to get all our page routes or at least the ones that are public. This is an easy task with globby, this lib allows us to get the name of the files based on regex URL on our folder structure.

Identifying local styling globby is a great tool for recursively scanning directories to find files or folders matching specific criteria, so we need to add that to our project.

To check if a project uses TypeScript, you could do the same thing that shadcn-ui/ui CLI package does. That is, check if tsconfig.json path exists in the given cwd using pathExists function provided by fs-extra.

fs.readJSONSync reads a JSON file and then parses it into an object. In this case, it is an object of type PackageJson.

I haven't seen fs-extra mentioned yet. For my work it involves a fair bit of reading/writing to the filesystem, so this makes it quite nice to deal with everything in an async way.

There are a number of these modules, https://github.com/jprichardson/node-fs-extra being probably the most famous / popular. It does a better job of explaining the why.

Since updating nodejs@18 and switching to esm only, many libraries have been replaced to support esm import, but fs-extra has not been The use of esm is correctly supported, and no suitable replacement has been found. After the a PR proposed by us was rejected, I decided to re-release a [fs-extra-unified] that correctly supports the use of esm (https://www.npmjs.com/package/fs-extra-unified) module.

Are you seriously suggesting the creators of the software can't write a "save elsewhere" function using Electron and JavaScript? The system has versioning so it would be easy to ask the user to create a backup on first loading with a new version of the software, and the copySync function to make a backup. Foundry uses Node.js already.

We are dealing with a file that is far too large to be loaded into memory at once. Node cannot buffer the file for us because of the size of it.

Implementing those 3 features was quite simple. For metadata and markdown file, I mainly used an external library: showdown to convert from markdown files to html files as well as parsing metadata from markdown files. However, implementing the support for static assets such as images is a bit more interesting. I had to use another external library called fs-extra to copy assets folder from user to the dist folder. I also had to create another new class called CopyFolder where I used fs.copy method to copy assets folder

The zx project implements a shell script executor similar to Bash but using JavaScript modules. It provides an inbuilt asynchronous JavaScript API to call other commands similar to Bash. Besides that, it provides wrapper functions for several Node.js-based command-line helpers such as chalk, minimist, fs-extra, OS, and Readline.
