ESLint has added JSON and Markdown linting support with new officially-supported plugins, expanding its versatility beyond JavaScript.
The chownr npm package is a Node.js module that allows you to recursively change the owner and group of a file or directory tree. It is a simple utility that operates similarly to the Unix 'chown -R' command, but it is implemented in Node.js for use within scripts or Node.js applications.
Recursively change owner
This feature allows you to change the owner of a directory and all its subdirectories and files to the specified user ID (uid) and group ID (gid).
const chownr = require('chownr');
chownr('/path/to/dir', uid, gid, (err) => {
if (err) throw err;
console.log('Changed ownership recursively!');
});
fs-extra is a module that extends the native fs module in Node.js. It includes extra file system methods that do not exist in the standard fs module. While fs-extra does not have a direct method for recursive chown, it provides other file operations like copying, moving, and deleting files/directories, which can be used in conjunction with Node's native fs.chown to achieve similar results.
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 does not provide a direct recursive chown functionality, but it can be used to enhance the reliability of file system operations when implementing recursive chown logic manually.
