After install, you can require module:

const readdir = require('recursive-dir-reader');

// Code

Usage

For example, we have the following directory structure:

In the code below, we gave several examples of how to read this directory and all its subdirectories.

const readdir = require('recursive-dir-reader');

// EX 1
readdir.sync('./someDir', path => {
  console.info(path);
});
// ./someDir/someFile1.js
// ./someDir/someFile2.js
// ./someDir/someSubDir/folderWithOneFile/template.html
// ./someDir/someSubDir/someModule1.js
// ./someDir/someSubDir/someModule2.js


// EX 2
readdir.async('./someDir', path => {
  console.info(path);
});
// ./someDir/someFile1.js
// ./someDir/someFile2.js
// ./someDir/someSubDir/someModule1.js
// ./someDir/someSubDir/someModule2.js
// ./someDir/someSubDir/folderWithOneFile/template.html

// EX 3
const filesIntoDirSync = readdir.sync('./someDir');

console.info(filesIntoDirSync);
// [
//   './someDir/someFile1.js',
//   './someDir/someFile2.js',
//   './someDir/someSubDir/folderWithOneFile/template.html',
//   './someDir/someSubDir/someModule1.js',
//   './someDir/someSubDir/someModule2.js'
// ]

// EX 4
const filesIntoDirAsync = readdir.async('./someDir');

setTimeout(() => {
  console.info(filesIntoDirAsync);
}, 1000);
// [
//   './someDir/someFile1.js',
//   './someDir/someFile2.js',
//   './someDir/someSubDir/someModule1.js',
//   './someDir/someSubDir/someModule2.js',
//   './someDir/someSubDir/folderWithOneFile/template.html'
// ]

You can easily combine this methods.

const filesIntoDirAsync = readdir.async('./someDir', path => {
  console.info(path);
});
// ./someDir/someFile1.js
// ./someDir/someFile2.js
// ./someDir/someSubDir/someModule1.js
// ./someDir/someSubDir/someModule2.js
// ./someDir/someSubDir/folderWithOneFile/template.html

setTimeout(() => {
  console.info(filesIntoDirAsync);
}, 1000);
// [
//   './someDir/someFile1.js',
//   './someDir/someFile2.js',
//   './someDir/someSubDir/someModule1.js',
//   './someDir/someSubDir/someModule2.js',
//   './someDir/someSubDir/folderWithOneFile/template.html'
// ]
