how to use the ensurelinksync function from the fs-extra library in typescript

To use ensureLinkSync() function from fs-extra library in TypeScript, first, you need to install the @types/fs-extra package to add the type definitions for fs-extra. Here's an example of how to use ensureLinkSync() function in TypeScript:

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

const srcPath = '/path/to/source/file';
const destPath = '/path/to/dest/file';

try {
  ensureLinkSync(srcPath, destPath);
  console.log(`${srcPath} was successfully linked to ${destPath}`);
} catch (err) {
  console.error(`Failed to link ${srcPath} to ${destPath}. Error message: ${err.message}`);
}

In the example above, we import the ensureLinkSync() function from fs-extra, and then we call it with the source file path and destination file path. If the link is created successfully, we log a success message, otherwise, we log an error message.

Note that ensureLinkSync() function throws an error if it fails to create the link, which is why we use a try...catch block when calling it.
