How to create appending writeStream in Node.js

Question

Current documentation here doesn\'t seem to mention any parameters governing the stream\'s behaviour with regards to whether file is re-created every time or just gets data appe

Answer 1

There is a createWriteStream method right below it.

fs.createWriteStream(path, [options]) Returns a new WriteStream object (See Writable Stream).

options is an object with the following defaults:

{ 'flags': 'a'
, 'encoding': null
, 'mode': 0666
}
