How to use the Snippet​

Write the snippet in your new file !fsrf:

script.js
import fs from 'fs';
import path from 'path';

const filePath = path.join(__dirname, 'filename');

fs.readFile(filePath, 'utf8', (err, data) => {
  if (err) {
    console.error('Error reading file:', err);
    return;
  }
  console.log('File content:', data);
});

In the snippet above, we created a simple Node.js function that reads the content of a file using the fs module. The function reads the content of the file filename located in the same directory as the script file.

How to use the Command​

  1. Open the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P or Cmd+Shift+P on Mac).
  2. Type MERN: Node.js Function and press Enter.
  3. Select the function to create (Read File, Write File) and enter the file name.
  4. Press Enter and the snippet will be created.
