find the last accessed date of a file in typescript

To find the last accessed date of a file in TypeScript, you can use the built-in fs.stat method from the Node.js file system module.

Here's an example code snippet that demonstrates how to find the last accessed date of a file:

index.ts
import * as fs from 'fs';

const filePath = '/path/to/your/file.txt';

fs.stat(filePath, (err, stats) => {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err);
    return;
  }

  const lastAccessed = stats.atime;
  console.log(`Last accessed: ${lastAccessed}`);
});

14 lines

In this example, we import the fs module and specify the file path that we want to find the last accessed date for. Then, we call the fs.stat method with the file path and a callback function that is called with an error (if one occurs) and the stats object that contains information about the file.

We can then access the atime property of the stats object to get the last accessed date of the file. Finally, we log the last accessed date to the console for testing purposes.
