Writing files in Node.js

Question

I\'ve been trying to find a way to write to a file when using Node.js, but with no success. How can I do that?

Answer 1

var path = 'public/uploads/file.txt',
buffer = new Buffer("some content\n");

fs.open(path, 'w', function(err, fd) {
    if (err) {
        throw 'error opening file: ' + err;
    }

    fs.write(fd, buffer, 0, buffer.length, null, function(err) {
        if (err) throw 'error writing file: ' + err;
        fs.close(fd, function() {
            console.log('file written');
        })
    });
});
