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

To use the futimessync function from the fs-extra library in TypeScript, you need to install the types for fs-extra and @types/node. Then you can import futimessync from the fs-extra library and call it with the appropriate parameters.

Here is an example of how you might use the futimessync function to set the modification time of a file:

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

const filePath = '/path/to/file';
const newModTime = new Date('2022-01-01T00:00:00.000Z');

fsExtra.futimesSync(filePath, newModTime, newModTime);
180 chars
7 lines

In this example, we import the fs-extra library as fsExtra, which includes the futimesSync function. We then define the path to the file we want to modify and create a new Date object with the desired modification time. Finally, we call futimesSync with the file path and the new modification time twice (once for the access time and once for the modification time).

Note that futimesSync is a synchronous function, so it will block until the modification time has been updated. If you need to update the modification time asynchronously, you can use the futimes function instead.
