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

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

npm install fs-extra

Once you have installed the package, you can use the tostring function by requiring the fs-extra module and calling the function with the path of the file that you want to convert to a string. Here is an example:

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

fs.readFile('/path/to/file', (err, data) => {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err);
    return;
  }
  const fileContent = data.toString();
  console.log(fileContent);
});

In the above example, we are reading the contents of a file using the fs module's readFile function, which reads the contents of the file and passes it to the callback function as a buffer. We then call the toString function on the buffer to convert it to a string, which we can then use as needed.
