The UNIX command rm -rf
for node.
Install with npm install rimraf
, or just drop rimraf.js somewhere.
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:
EBUSY
and ENOTEMPTY
- rimraf will back off a maximum of
opts.maxBusyTries
times before giving up, adding 100ms of wait
between each attempt. The default maxBusyTries
is 3.ENOENT
- If the file doesn't exist, rimraf will return
successfully, since your desired outcome is already the case.EMFILE
- Since readdir
requires opening a file descriptor, it's
possible to hit EMFILE
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 to
opts.emfileWait
ms, which defaults to 1000.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)
If an EBUSY
, ENOTEMPTY
, or EPERM
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.
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.
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.
Set to any non-falsey value to disable globbing entirely.
(Equivalent to setting glob: false
.)
It can remove stuff synchronously, too. But that's not so good. Use the async API. It's better.
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.
If you need to create a directory recursively, check out mkdirp.
