@rowanmanning/list-all-files

List all files in a directory recursively.

!WARNING This library will be deprecated in April 2026 to coincide with the end-of-life date for Node.js 20. This is because the native fs.glob and fs.globSync methods in Node.js 22 and above provide the same functionality.

Requirements

This library requires the following to run:

Node.js 20+

Usage

Install with npm:

npm install @rowanmanning/list-all-files

Asynchronous Interface

Load the library into your code with require:

const { listAllFiles } = require('@rowanmanning/list-all-files');

List all files in a directory asynchronously, using promises or async/await:

listAllFiles('./directory-path').then(files => {
    // files is an array of strings, each being the path to a file
});

const files = await listAllFiles('./directory-path');
// files is an array of strings, each being the path to a file

Synchronous Interface

Load the library into your code with require:

const { listAllFilesSync } = require('@rowanmanning/list-all-files');

List all files in a directory synchronously:

const files = listAllFilesSync('./directory-path');
// files is an array of strings, each being the path to a file

Migration

A new major version of this project is released if breaking changes are introduced. We maintain a migration guide to help users migrate between these versions.
