README.md
The UNIX command rm -rf
for node.
Install with npm install rimraf
, or just drop rimraf.js somewhere.
API
rimraf(f, [opts], callback)
The first parameter will be interpreted as a globbing pattern for files. If you
want to disable globbing you can do so with opts.disableGlob
(defaults to
false
). This might be handy, for instance, if you have filenames that contain
globbing wildcard characters.
The callback will be called with an error if there is one. Certain errors are handled for you:
- Windows:
EBUSY
andENOTEMPTY
- rimraf will back off a maximum ofopts.maxBusyTries
times before giving up, adding 100ms of wait between each attempt. The defaultmaxBusyTries
is 3. ENOENT
- If the file doesn't exist, rimraf will return successfully, since your desired outcome is already the case.EMFILE
- Sincereaddir
requires opening a file descriptor, it's possible to hitEMFILE
if too many file descriptors are in use. In the sync case, there's nothing to be done for this. But in the async case, rimraf will gradually back off with timeouts up toopts.emfileWait
ms, which defaults to 1000.
options
-
unlink, chmod, stat, lstat, rmdir, readdir, unlinkSync, chmodSync, statSync, lstatSync, rmdirSync, readdirSync
In order to use a custom file system library, you can override specific fs functions on the options object.
If any of these functions are present on the options object, then the supplied function will be used instead of the default fs method.
Sync methods are only relevant for
rimraf.sync()
, of course.For example:
var myCustomFS = require('some-custom-fs') rimraf('some-thing', myCustomFS, callback)
-
maxBusyTries
If an
EBUSY
,ENOTEMPTY
, orEPERM
error code is encountered on Windows systems, then rimraf will retry with a linear backoff wait of 100ms longer on each try. The default maxBusyTries is 3.Only relevant for async usage.
-
emfileWait
If an
EMFILE
error is encountered, then rimraf will retry repeatedly with a linear backoff of 1ms longer on each try, until the timeout counter hits this max. The default limit is 1000.If you repeatedly encounter
EMFILE
errors, then consider using graceful-fs in your program.Only relevant for async usage.
-
glob
Set to
false
to disable glob pattern matching.Set to an object to pass options to the glob module. The default glob options are
{ nosort: true, silent: true }
.Glob version 6 is used in this module.
Relevant for both sync and async usage.
-
disableGlob
Set to any non-falsey value to disable globbing entirely. (Equivalent to setting
glob: false
.)
rimraf.sync
It can remove stuff synchronously, too. But that's not so good. Use the async API. It's better.
CLI
If installed with npm install rimraf -g
it can be used as a global
command rimraf <path> [<path> ...]
which is useful for cross platform support.
mkdirp
If you need to create a directory recursively, check out mkdirp.
