List file and directory information in an easy to use format. Similar to the linux command ls.

ToDo

• module is forked from npm package "ls"; currently only the first argument "path" is working. Further options might be : Move recursive through folders, select only certain filetypes with regex.
• Built in an async version.
• better tests

from the 'ls' Readme:

The only required argument is the initial path, the rest can be omitted.

ls([path/s], {config}, /file regex/, iteratorFunction)

Each file produces an object with the following parameters:

• full: The path and file (/foo/bar/baz.jpg)
• path: The path to the file (/foo/bar/)
• file: The file (baz.jpg)

• name: The file without an extension (baz)

• recurse: Should we recurse into directories? (Boolean, default is false)

• type: What kind of files should we return? ('all', 'dir', 'file', default is 'all')

The /regex/ will only return matching files. All directories will still be recursed.

The iterator function is mostly a style preference, but can be handy if you need to throw an error and stop traversal.

Testing

node test.js

This will log the output to your console.
