how to use access from fs-extra library in javascript

To use the access method from the fs-extra library in JavaScript, you will first need to install the fs-extra module using the Node package manager (npm).

Here is an example code snippet that demonstrates how to use the access method:

index.tsx
const fs = require('fs-extra')

// Check if a file or directory exists
fs.access('/path/to/file/or/directory', (err) => {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err)
  } else {
    console.log('File or directory exists')
  }
})

In the code above, the access method is called with the path to the file or directory that you want to check. If there is an error, it means that the file or directory doesn't exist, and you can handle the error appropriately. If there is no error, it means that the file or directory exists, and you can proceed with your code.

The access method also supports options such as checking for read or write permissions, and you can find more information about these options in the fs-extra documentation.
