bpedro / node-fs Goto Github PK

I receive an error message which I have no idea how to resolve. I guess it's a bug in this library?

Error:

events.js:48
    throw arguments[1]; // Unhandled 'error' event
                    ^
Error: EISDIR, illegal operation on a directory '/var/storage/1/2011/11/19'

Compressed code:

var fullPath = '/var/storage/1/2011/11/19';
fs.mkdir(fullPath, 0777, true, function(err){ console.log(err); });

I'm gettingError: EEXIST, file already exists exceptions on Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS with node v0.8.14.

I've traced the error back to this code in mkdirSync_p:

if (e.errno != 17) {
  throw e;
}

The problem is that errno is a deprecated internal libuv code, which has changed from 17 to 47. The solution is to replace this with the much more robust:

if (e.code != 'EEXIST') {
  throw e;
}

The same fix will be needed in mkdir_p too, of course.

suppose i do this
fs.mkdirSync('/tmp/example_sync/first/second/third/fourth/fifth', 0777, true);
then this
fs.mkdirSync('/tmp/example_sync/first/second/third/fourth/fifth/sixth/seventh', 0777, true);
and then this
fs.mkdirSync('/tmp/example_sync/first/second/third/', 0777, true);

what will happen? will any exception be thrown that file already exists??

if yes then how can i get it such that the node-fs will ignore and just continue executing and creating the rest of the folders(if passed as arg)..

while(!success){
    fs.exists(path, function (exists) {
        console.log('this will be never called');
        if(!exists)
            success = true
        else{
            i++;
            newPath(req);
        }
    })
}

that code don't work, fs.exists just dont run into the while!

The os field too specific, failures on smartos are caused by this from this as well as other *nix platforms.

!win32 would generally be better I would think.
