nyks

nyks provide a set of "missing" stuffs in nodejs basic api. All those functions will eventually end up in the official API :-).

Natives

child_process

• require('child_process').exec_window(cmd, args, callback); child_process.exec equivalent for windowed applications.

• require('child_process').passthru(cmd, args, callback);

• require('child_process').passthru(cmd, {args:args,env:env}, callback); callback(err, exit_code, last_stdout_line);

path

• path.which Return full path of a binary in env PATH
• path.extend_PATH(path[,path2, ..]); Extend system PATH with new directory

util

• require('util').md5(string) Return a hex encoded md5 hash

process

• require('nyks/process/parseArgs')(process.argv.splice(2)) Command line args parser, aligned on yks patterns
• require('nyks/process/splitArgs')("some string 'with escaped' content") Split a string into whitespace separated chunks

fs

• require('nyks/fs/deleteFolderRecursive')(path); Recursive folder deletion

• require('nyks/fs/md5File')(file_path, callback)

• require('nyks/fs/md5FileSync')(file_path) Return md5 checksum of a file

• require('nyks/fs/filesizeSync')(path);

• require('nyks/fs/filemtimeSync')(path);

• require('nyks/fs/isFileSync')(path)

• require('nyks/fs/isDirectorySync')(path)

• require('nyks/fs/tmppath')(ext) Return a unique file path in OS temp dir

• require('nyks/fs/getFolderSize')(path) Return a folder Size

• require('nyks/fs/clearFolderReccurcive')(path , options , callback) // options {file_to_keep:[] , size_to_delete:number(octet) , max_size:number(octet) , max_time:number(millisecond) } delete files in folder (you can delete the files created before max_time or and delete with size options)

Crypto

Utils

• require('nyks/crypto/pemme')(str, armor) Create a PEM encoded armor around a desired string (chunk size 65)

• require('nyks/crypto/md5') (body) Return the base md5 bash

• require('nyks/crypto/openssh2pem')(body) Return the PEM version of an openssh public key (yeah !)

Natives

Object

• require('nyks/object/combine')(keys, values) Creates an object by using one array for keys and another for its values
• require('nyks/object/mask')({"foo":"bar"}, mask, glue ) Format a dictionnary to a mask sprintf(mask, k, v)

Buffer

• require('nyks/buffer/indexOf')(byte) Binary search of byte Return -1 if not found

String

• require('nyks/string/chunk')(basestr, chunksize) Split a string into chunk of specified size.

• require('nyks/string/startsWith')(str) Return boolean

• require('nyks/string/endsWith')(str) Return boolean

• require('nyks/string/replaces')(dict) Replace key => value in current string

• require('nyks/string/rreplaces')(dict) Recursive (iterative) replaces

• require('nyks/string/stripEnd')(str) Return trimmed string of "str" if present (else, leave untouched)

• require('nyks/string/rot13')() Rot13 of current string

Workflow/async

• require('nyks/async/dict')(["foo", "bar", function(item, chain){ chain(null, 22); }, function(err, results){ results//{ "foo" : 22, "bar" : 22} })
