forcepaths

Create folders and files even if parent folders don't exist (node js)

Create a folder

var forcePaths = require('forcePaths');

forcePaths(
    "./my/long/path/to/a/folder",
    function(err,stat){
        if (!err) {
		     if (stat.isDirectory()) {
				// this test is only needed if you
				// want to verify that the path was not 
				// previously a file.
		     }
		  }
    }
);

Create a file

var forcePaths = require('forcePaths');

forcePaths(
    "./my/long/path/to/a/file/hello.txt",
    "hello world",// <<< write this text to the file
    function(err,stat){
       if (err) {
          console.log(err);
       } 
    }
);
