Delete several files in node.js

Question

What is the best way to delete several files in node.js?

function deleteFiles(files, callback){
    ...
}

var files = [\'file1.js\', \'file2.jpg\', \'file3.css\         


        

Answer 1

Best way is delete files synchronously into a loop using unlinkSync(path) function (see the doc), from node v7.6.0 so far.

Syntax is provided below:

// myListOfFiles will be your list of files with paths relative to your script.
myListOfFiles.forEach(filePath => {
 fs.unlinkSync(filePath);
 return;
});
