The core of the humanfs library.
npm install @humanfs/core@humanfs/coreIf you find this useful, please consider supporting my work with a donation or nominate me for a GitHub Star.
The core functionality for humanfs that is shared across all implementations for all runtimes. The contents of this package are intentionally runtime agnostic and are not intended to be used alone.
Currently, this package simply exports the Hfs class, which is an abstract base class intended to be inherited from in runtime-specific hfs packages (like @humanfs/node).
> [!WARNING]
> This project is experimental and may change significantly before v1.0.0. Use at your own caution and definitely not in production!
Install using your favorite package manager for Node.js:
``shell
npm install @humanfs/core
pnpm install @humanfs/core
yarn add @humanfs/core
bun install @humanfs/core
`
Then you can import the Hfs and Path classes like this:
`js`
import { Hfs, Path } from "@humanfs/core";
Install using JSR:
`shell
deno add @humanfs/core
jsr add @humanfs/core
`
Then you can import the Hfs class like this:
`js`
import { Hfs, Path } from "@humanfs/core";
It's recommended to import the minified version to save bandwidth:
`js`
import { Hfs, Path } from "https://cdn.skypack.dev/@humanfs/core?min";
However, you can also import the unminified version for debugging purposes:
`js`
import { Hfs, Path } from "https://cdn.skypack.dev/@humanfs/core";
The Hfs class contains all of the basic functionality for an Hfs instance without a predefined impl. This class is mostly used for creating runtime-specific impls, such as NodeHfs and DenoHfs.
You can create your own instance by providing an impl directly:
`js`
const hfs = new Hfs({ impl: { async text() {} }});
The specified impl becomes the base impl for the instance, meaning you can always reset back to it using resetImpl().
You can also inherit from Hfs to create your own class with a preconfigured impl, such as:
`js`
class MyHfs extends Hfs {
constructor() {
super({
impl: myImpl
});
}
}
The Path class represents the path to a directory or file within a file system. It's an abstract representation that can be used even outside of traditional file systems where string paths might not make sense.
`js
const myPath = new Path(["dir", "subdir"]);
console.log(myPath.toString()); // "dir/subdir"
// add another step
myPath.push("file.txt");
console.log(myPath.toString()); // "dir/subdir/file.txt"
// get just the last step
console.log(myPath.name); // "file.txt"
// change just the last step
myPath.name = "file.json";
console.log(myPath.name); // "file.json"
console.log(myPath.toString()); // "dir/subdir/file.json"
// get the size of the path
console.log(myPath.size); // 3
// remove the last step
myPath.pop();
console.log(myPath.toString()); // "dir/subdir"
// iterate over the steps
for (const step of myPath) {
// do something
}
// create a new path from a string
const newPath = Path.fromString("/foo/bar");
