promised-file

promised-file

Super simple file reader, wrapped in a promise.

Rejects on an empty file.

Goals

Journey into breaking my modules into the smallest pieces possible.

Create a tiny wrapper around fs that returns a promise

Install

$ npm install promised-file

Examples

var instance = require('promised-file');

var notemptyfile = 'notemptyfile.js';
var emptyfile = 'emptyfile.js';

// fulfilled
instance.getFile(notemptyfile)
  .then(function(response) {
    console.log('### response: \n\t%s', response);
  })
  .done();
// ->
// #### response:
//        CONTENTS_OF_FILE

// rejected
instance.getFile(notemptyfile)
  .then(function(response) {
    console.log('### response: \n\t%s', response);
  })
  .done();

// ->
// #### response:
//        ## Error: File empty
