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

To use the futimes function from the fs-extra library in TypeScript, you will need to install the fs-extra library and use TypeScript types.

Here is an example of how to use the futimes function in TypeScript:

index.ts
import fs from 'fs-extra';

const filePath = 'path/to/file';
const atime = new Date();
const mtime = new Date();

fs.open(filePath, 'r', (err, fd) => {
  if (err) {
    throw err;
  }

  fs.futimes(fd, atime, mtime, (err) => {
    if (err) {
      throw err;
    }
    console.log('File time has been updated');
  });
});

In this example, we import the fs-extra library, and create filePath, atime, and mtime variables. We then open the file using the fs.open function, passing in the filePath, the 'r' flag, and a callback function that logs any errors.

Then, we call the futimes function, passing in the file descriptor returned from fs.open, atime, mtime, and a callback function that logs any errors.

Note that using TypeScript types helps catch any errors when calling functions and passing in arguments, which can make development easier and more efficient.
