How to read a local text file?

Question

I’m trying to write a simple text file reader by creating a function that takes in the file’s path and converts each line of text into a char array, but it’s not working.

Answer 1

I know, I am late at this party. Let me show you what I have got.

This is a simple reading of text file

var path = "C:\\path\\filename.txt"
var fs = require('fs')
fs.readFile(path , 'utf8', function(err, data) {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log('OK: ' + filename);
  console.log(data)
});

I hope this helps.
