Once the packages are installed, we can import the appendFileSync function from fs-extra in our TypeScript file and use it as follows:

index.ts
import { appendFileSync } from 'fs-extra';

const filePath = 'path/to/file.txt';
const data = 'new data to append to the file';

appendFileSync(filePath, data);

Here, appendFileSync function takes two arguments:

  1. filePath - a string representing the file path that we want to append the data to.
  2. data - a string or a buffer containing the data that we want to append to the file.

This function appends the data to the end of the specified file and returns undefined.

Note: While using appendFileSync, we should make sure that the file path exists, otherwise, it will throw an error.
