find the last modified date of a file in typescript

To find the last modified date of a file in TypeScript, you can use the fs module and its statSync method to get the file's status. Here's an example code snippet:

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

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

const stats = fs.statSync(filePath);
const lastModified = stats.mtime;

console.log(`Last modified date: ${lastModified.toDateString()}`);

In this example, we import the fs module and specify the path to the file we want to check. We then get the file's status using fs.statSync() and store it in a variable called stats. mtime (short for "modification time") is a property of the stats object that contains the date and time when the file was last modified. We store this value in a variable called lastModified, which is a Date object. Finally, we display the last modified date using the toDateString() method of the Date object.
