node-walk ==== A not-quite-port of python's `os.walk`. Installation ---- npm install walk Usage ==== var walk = require('walk'), options = { followlinks: false, topdown: false, // currently ignored }; function fileHandler(err, path, nodes, sorted) { // handle each path } walk("path/to/dir", options, fileHandler); // This also works // walk("path/to/dir", options).whenever(fileHandler); * err - Probably can't read a directory due to permissions. * path - the current path being read * nodes - an array of `stats` * sorted - `nodes` sorted by type * `errors` - nodes that could not be `stat`ed and why * `files` - actual files (or links) * `dirs` * `blocks` * `chars` * `links` * `fifos` * `sockets` Example ==== mkdir -p walk-test/dir1 touch walk-test/file-1 touch walk-test/file-2 touch walk-test/dir1/file-1 touch walk-test/dir1/file-2 node-walk-test ---- var walk = require('walk'); walk('./walk-test', undefined, function (err, path, nodes, sorted) { if (err) { console.log('ERROR: '); console.log(err); return; } o.dirs.forEach(function (item, i, arr) { if (item.name.match(/trash/i)) { console.log('found a trash'); arr.splice(i,1); } }); console.log("PATH: " + path); console.log("SORTED: "); console.log(o); }); Output ---- PATH: ./walk-test SORTED: { errors: [], files: [ { dev: 234881026, ino: 30682245, mode: 33204, nlink: 1, uid: 504, gid: 20, rdev: 0, size: 0, blksize: 4096, blocks: 0, atime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, mtime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, ctime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, name: 'file-1' }, { dev: 234881026, ino: 30682246, mode: 33204, nlink: 1, uid: 504, gid: 20, rdev: 0, size: 0, blksize: 4096, blocks: 0, atime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, mtime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, ctime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, name: 'file-2' } ], dirs: [ { dev: 234881026, ino: 30682244, mode: 16893, nlink: 4, uid: 504, gid: 20, rdev: 0, size: 136, blksize: 4096, blocks: 0, atime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:49:40 GMT, mtime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, ctime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, name: 'dir1' } ], blocks: [], chars: [], links: [], fifos: [], sockets: [] } PATH: walk-test/dir1 SORTED: { errors: [], files: [ { dev: 234881026, ino: 30682247, mode: 33204, nlink: 1, uid: 504, gid: 20, rdev: 0, size: 0, blksize: 4096, blocks: 0, atime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, mtime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, ctime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, name: 'file-1' }, { dev: 234881026, ino: 30682248, mode: 33204, nlink: 1, uid: 504, gid: 20, rdev: 0, size: 0, blksize: 4096, blocks: 0, atime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, mtime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, ctime: Sun, 21 Nov 2010 04:48:23 GMT, name: 'file-2' } ], dirs: [], blocks: [], chars: [], links: [], fifos: [], sockets: [] }
