@ndelangen/fs-extra-unified

fs-extra but fully ESM/CJS compatible. 1.0.0

This package allows you to import/require without deciding if you'll want ESM or CJS inside your import.

This package uses exportsMaps in package.json to achieve the affect where if you:

• import this package, you'll get the ESM version of fs-extra (fs-extra/esm)
• require this package, you'll get the CJS version of fs-extra

This is useful if you're bundling/running your code for multiple environments.

Usage

import * as fse from "@ndelangen/fs-extra-unified";

This package will yield the correct type definitions, but only implements/exports the implementations and types from fs-extra/esm. So you'll want to use node:fs/promises for things such as readFile and writeFile.

I wrote this because I needed it in storybook, and https://www.npmjs.com/package/fs-extra-unified re-implemented the entire fs-extra API, causing it to lag behind and risk security patches to not be applied. As this package has fs-extra is a peerDependency, it does not implement any functionality itself.
