In my project I use this function for getting huge amount of files. It's pretty fast (put require("FS") out to make it even faster):
var _getAllFilesFromFolder = function(dir) {
var filesystem = require("fs");
var results = [];
filesystem.readdirSync(dir).forEach(function(file) {
file = dir+'/'+file;
var stat = filesystem.statSync(file);
if (stat && stat.isDirectory()) {
results = results.concat(_getAllFilesFromFolder(file))
} else results.push(file);
});
return results;
};
usage is clear:
_getAllFilesFromFolder(__dirname + "folder");
The DOM's File interface provides abstraction around native files in order to let users work on native files directly with the HTML5 file API. Electron has added a path attribute to the File interface which exposes the file's real path on filesystem.
Example on getting a real path from a dragged-onto-the-app file:
<div id="holder">
Drag your file here
</div>
<script>
var holder = document.getElementById('holder');
holder.ondragover = function () {
return false;
};
holder.ondragleave = holder.ondragend = function () {
return false;
};
holder.ondrop = function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var file = e.dataTransfer.files[0];
console.log('File you dragged here is', file.path);
return false;
};
</script>
The most straightforward way to rebuild native modules is via the electron-rebuild package, which handles the manual steps of downloading headers and building native modules:
npm install --save-dev electron-rebuild
# Every time you run npm install, run this
node ./node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild
.directive("ngFileSelect",function(){
return {
link: function($scope,el){
el.bind("change", function(e){
$scope.file = (e.srcElement || e.target).files[0];
$scope.getFile();
});
}
}
