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

To use the lchownSync function from the fs-extra library in TypeScript, you can simply import the lchownSync function from the library and call it with the required arguments.

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

// Usage
const path = '/path/to/file';
const uid = 1000; // uid of new owner
const gid = 1000; // gid of new owner

lchownSync(path, uid, gid);

The lchownSync function changes the owner of a file, symbolic link, or directory, similar to the chown function, but with the added ability to change the ownership of a symbolic link itself. The function has three required arguments:

• path: A string that represents the path to the file, symbolic link, or directory that you want to change the ownership of.
• uid: A number that represents the new owner's uid (user ID).
• gid: A number that represents the new owner's gid (group ID).

Note: The lchownSync function is a synchronous function, which means that it will block the execution of the code until the ownership has been changed. It is recommended to use the asynchronous lchown function if you do not want to block the execution of your code.
