## What is this?
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This utility puts the file system first.
|
|||
|
Where `vfile` itself focusses on file values (the file contents), this instead
|
|||
|
focuses on the file system, which is a common case when working with *actual*
|
|||
|
files from Node.js.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## When should I use this?
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Use this if you know there’s a file system and want to use it.
|
|||
|
Use `vfile` if there might not be a file system.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Install
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This package is [ESM only][esm].
|
|||
|
In Node.js (version 16+), install with [npm][]:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```sh
|
|||
|
npm install to-vfile
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In Deno with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
import {toVFile, read, readSync, write, writeSync} from 'https://esm.sh/to-vfile@8'
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Use
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
import {toVFile, read} from 'to-vfile'
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
console.log(toVFile('readme.md'))
|
|||
|
console.log(toVFile(new URL('readme.md', import.meta.url)))
|
|||
|
console.log(await read('.git/HEAD'))
|
|||
|
console.log(await read('.git/HEAD', 'utf8'))
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Yields:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```js
|
|||
|
VFile {
|
|||
|
cwd: '/Users/tilde/Projects/oss/to-vfile',
|
|||
|
data: {},
|
|||

## API
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This package exports the identifiers [`read`][api-read],
|
|||
|
[`readSync`][api-read-sync], [`toVFile`][api-to-vfile],
|
|||
|
[`write`][api-write], and [`writeSync`][api-write-sync].
|
|||
|
There is no default export.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### `toVFile(description)`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Create a virtual file from a description.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This is like `VFile`, but it accepts a file path instead of file cotnents.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If `options` is a string, URL, or buffer, it’s used as the path.
|
|||
|
Otherwise, if it’s a file, that’s returned instead.
|
|||
|
Otherwise, the options are passed through to `new VFile()`.
|
|||
|
|
|||

## Types
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This package is fully typed with [TypeScript][].
|
|||
|
It exports the additional types
|
|||
|
[`BufferEncoding`][api-buffer-encoding],
|
|||
|
[`Callback`][api-callback],
|
|||
|
[`Compatible`][api-compatible],
|
|||
|
[`ReadOptions`][api-read-options], and
|
|||
|
[`WriteOptions`][api-write-options].
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Compatibility
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained
|
|||
|
versions of Node.js.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of
|
|||
|
Node.
|
|||
|
This means we try to keep the current release line, `vfile@^8`,
|
|||
|
compatible with Node.js 16.
|
|||
|
