How do you get a list of the names of all files present in a directory in Node.js?

Question

I\'m trying to get a list of the names of all the files present in a directory using Node.js. I want output that is an array of filenames. How can I do this?

Answer 1

non-recursive version

You don't say you want to do it recursively so I assume you only need direct children of the directory.

Sample code:

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');

fs.readdirSync('your-directory-path')
  .filter((file) => fs.lstatSync(path.join(folder, file)).isFile());
