SafeFS uses graceful-fs to wrap all of the standard file system methods to avoid EMFILE errors among other problems.
On-top of graceful-fs, SafeFS also adds additional wrapping on the following methods:
writeFile(path, data, options?, next) - ensure the full path exists before writing to itappendFile(path, data, options?, next) - ensure the full path exists before writing to itmkdir(path, mode?, next) - mode defaults to 0o777 & (~process.umask())unlink(path, next) - checks if the file exists before removing itSafeFS also define these additional methods:
ensurePath(path, options, next) - ensure the full path exists, equivalent to unix's mdir -p pathgetParentPathSync(path) - returns the parent directory of the pathYou should use these instead, which use and provide modern APIs while providing brilliant ecosystem support:
