how to use the stats function from fs-extra in javascript

To use the stats function from fs-extra in JavaScript, you need to first install the fs-extra package by running the following command in your Node.js project:

index.tsx
npm install fs-extra

2 lines

Once installed, you can require the package in your code and use the stats() function to get information about a file or directory. Here's an example:

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

fs.stats('/path/to/your/file').then((stats) => {
  console.log(stats);
}).catch((err) => {
  console.error(err);
});

8 lines

This will return a Promise that resolves with an instance of fs.Stats for the given file or directory. The fs.Stats object contains information about the file or directory, such as its size, creation time, and last modified time.

Note that stats() is an asynchronous function, so it returns a Promise. You can use await instead of .then() and .catch() if you're using an async function.
