make-dir

Make a directory and its parents if needed - Think mkdir -p

[!TIP] You probably want the built-in fsPromises.mkdir('…', {recursive: true}) instead.

Advantages over `fsPromises.mkdir('…', {recursive: true})`

Supports a custom fs implementation.

Advantages over `mkdirp`

Promise API (Async/await ready!)
Fixes many mkdirp issues: #96 #70 #66
CI-tested on macOS, Linux, and Windows
Actively maintained
Doesn't bundle a CLI
Uses the native fs.mkdir/mkdirSync recursive option in Node.js unless overridden

Install

1npm install make-dir

Usage

1$ pwd
2/Users/sindresorhus/fun
3$ tree
4.

1import {makeDirectory} from 'make-dir';
2
3const path = await makeDirectory('unicorn/rainbow/cake');
4
5console.log(path);
6//=> '/Users/sindresorhus/fun/unicorn/rainbow/cake'

1$ tree
2.
3└── unicorn
4    └── rainbow
5        └── cake

Multiple directories:

1import {makeDirectory} from 'make-dir';
2
3const paths = await Promise.all([
4	makeDirectory('unicorn/rainbow'),
5	makeDirectory('foo/bar')
6]);
7
8console.log(paths);
9/*
10[
11	'/Users/sindresorhus/fun/unicorn/rainbow',
12	'/Users/sindresorhus/fun/foo/bar'
13]
14*/

API

makeDirectory(path, options?)

Returns a Promise for the path to the created directory.

makeDirectorySync(path, options?)

Returns the path to the created directory.

path

Type: string

The directory to create.

options

Type: object

mode

Type: integer
Default: 0o777

The directory permissions.

fs

Type: object
Default: import fs from 'node:fs'

Use a custom fs implementation. For example graceful-fs.

Using a custom fs implementation will block the use of the native recursive option if fs.mkdir or fs.mkdirSync is not the native function.

make-dir-cli - CLI for this module
del - Delete files and directories
globby - User-friendly glob matching
cpy - Copy files
cpy-cli - Copy files on the command-line
move-file - Move a file
