3 points
In this article, we would like to show you how to get all files from a directory (including subdirectories) in Node.js.
Note: the source code was tested under Windows.
Directory structure:
xxxxxxxxxx1
C:/directory/2
├── text.txt3
├── resources/4
│ └── data.json5
└── pages/6
└── index.htmlSource code:
xxxxxxxxxx1
const fs = require('fs');2
const path = require('path');3
4
const listFiles = (directoryPath, filesPaths = []) => {5
for (const fileName of fs.readdirSync(directoryPath)) {6
const filePath = path.join(directoryPath, fileName);7
const fileStat = fs.statSync(filePath);8
if (fileStat.isDirectory()) {9
listFiles(filePath, filesPaths);10
} else {11
filesPaths.push(filePath);12
}13
}14
return filesPaths;15
};16
