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

To use the write function from the fs-extra library in TypeScript, you first need to install the library and its corresponding types:

npm install --save fs-extra @types/fs-extra

Then you can import the write function from the library and use it in your TypeScript code:

index.ts
import { write } from "fs-extra";

const data = "This is some data to write to the file.";
const filePath = "./example.txt";

// Call the write function to write the data to the file
write(filePath, data)
  .then(() => {
    console.log(`Successfully wrote data to ${filePath}`);
  })
  .catch((err) => {
    console.error(`Error writing data to ${filePath}: ${err.message}`);
  });

In this example, we import the write function from the fs-extra library, define some sample data to write to a file at a given path, and call the write function with the file path and data. We then use a Promise to handle the result of the write operation and log a success message or an error message as appropriate.

Note that we also specify the file system tag, as this question is related to file system interaction.
