Output:
  my-file.7z.001 - 100MB

Node.JS

Install

npm install split-file.js

API

import { splitBySize, splitByParts } from 'split-file.js'

splitByParts (
  filePath: string,
  parts: number,
  deleteOriginalFile = false
) => Promise<string[]>

splitBySize (
  filePath: string,
  size: number | string,
  deleteOriginalFile = false
) => Promise<string[]>

Both functions return a Promise that fulfills into an Array containing the paths of the generated files. Note: size can either be the number of bytes or use kb, mb or gb for units.

Examples

// Import module
import { splitBySize, splitByParts } from 'split-file.js'

// Path of the file
const myFile = 'C:/some-dir/my-large-file.7z'


// Split file in parts of 100MB
const files = await splitBySize(myFile, 100 * 1024 * 1024)
// or
const files = await splitBySize(myFile, '100mb')


// Split in 3 parts
const files = await splitByParts(myFile, 3)


// Split the file in 3 parts and delete the original file
const files = await splitByParts(myFile, 3, true)
