tea.xyz Spam Plagues npm and RubyGems Package Registries
Tea.xyz, a crypto project aimed at rewarding open source contributions, is once again facing backlash due to an influx of spam packages flooding public package registries.
@nodelib/fs.stat
Advanced tools
Package description
The @nodelib/fs.stat package is a utility for Node.js that provides an efficient way to get the status of a file or directory. It wraps the fs.stat, fs.lstat, and fs.fstat functions from the Node.js file system module with additional features such as following symbolic links and handling errors more gracefully.
Getting file status
This feature allows you to asynchronously get the status of a file. The callback provides either an error or the stats object.
const { stat } = require('@nodelib/fs.stat');
stat('path/to/file', (error, stats) => {
if (error) {
console.error(error);
return;
}
console.log(stats);
});
Getting file status synchronously
This feature allows you to synchronously get the status of a file. It either returns the stats object or throws an error.
const { statSync } = require('@nodelib/fs.stat');
try {
const stats = statSync('path/to/file');
console.log(stats);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
}
Getting file status with a promise
This feature allows you to get the status of a file using promises. It resolves with the stats object or rejects with an error.
const { stat } = require('@nodelib/fs.stat');
stat('path/to/file').then(stats => {
console.log(stats);
}).catch(error => {
console.error(error);
});
fs-extra is a package that builds on the Node.js fs module, providing additional methods and ensuring consistency across platforms. It includes methods like copy, remove, and mkdirs that are not present in @nodelib/fs.stat, but it also provides fs.stat functionality.
graceful-fs is a drop-in replacement for the fs module that makes file system operations more robust by queuing them and retrying on failure. It includes all the methods of the fs module, including fs.stat, but does not add new features specifically for fs.stat like @nodelib/fs.stat does.

Wrapper over standard methods (fs.lstat
, fs.stat
) with some features.
$ npm install @nodelib/fs.stat
const fsStat = require('@nodelib/fs.stat');
fsStat.stat('path').then((stat) => {
console.log(stat); // => fs.Stats
});
Returns a Promise<fs.Stats>
for provided path.
Returns a fs.Stats
for provided path.
Returns a fs.Stats
for provided path with standard callback-style.
string | Buffer | URL
The path
argument for fs.lstat
or fs.stat
method.
Object
See options section for more detailed information.
boolean
true
Throw an error or return information about symlink, when symlink is broken. When false
, methods will be return lstat call for broken symlinks.
boolean
true
By default, the methods of this package follows symlinks. If you do not want it, set this option to false
or use the standard method fs.lstat
.
FileSystemAdapter
built-in FS methods
By default, the built-in Node.js module (fs
) is used to work with the file system. You can replace each method with your own.
interface FileSystemAdapter {
lstat?: typeof fs.lstat;
stat?: typeof fs.stat;
lstatSync?: typeof fs.lstatSync;
statSync?: typeof fs.statSync;
}
