Async-mkdirp NPM

DEPRECATED

This project has been deprecated in favor of node's built in fsPromises.mkdir added in node v10.0.0

How to use node's built in method instead of this package:

const path = '/my/path/to/anything';
await fsPromises.mkdir(path, { recursive: true });

// With mode
const path = '/my/path/to/anything';
await fsPromises.mkdir(path, { recursive: true, mode: 0o775 });

// With partial application proposal
const path = '/my/path/to/anything';
const mkdirp = fsPromises.mkdir(?, { recursive: true, mode: 0o775 });
await mkdirp(path);

// Partial application with arrow functions
const path = '/my/path/to/anything';
const mkdirp = path => fsPromises.mkdir(path, { recursive: true, mode: 0o775 }));
await mkdirp(path);

async-mkdirp

npm downloads

Recursively create directories, like mkdir -p, and return a promise.

Install

npm install -S async-mkdirp

Usage

Normal:

const mkdirp = require('async-mkdirp');

(async () => {
  await mkdirp('/tmp/foo/bar/baz');
  // Code here runs after all directories have been created
})();

Make multiple paths in parallel:

const mkdirp = require('async-mkdirp');

const createDirs = async () => {
  await Promise.all([
    mkdirp('/tmp/foo/bar/baz'),
    mkdirp('./my/cool/folder'),
  ]);
  // Code here runs after all directories have been created
}

createDirs();

API

mkdir(path, mode)

path <String> | <Buffer>
mode <Integer>

Asynchronous mkdir -p. mode defaults to 0o777.

About

This project is inspired by substack/mkdirp. It has been rewritten to take advantage of async functions, and does not include a synchronous method or cli.
