winattr

Foolproof Windows® file attributes for Node.js

Get and set:

• archive
• hidden
• readonly
• system

… on files and/or directories.

A native binding is used, offering great performance. As a contingency in case that fails, functionality will silently revert to a command line, though it is considerably slower.

Installation

It may go without saying, but this library is not intended to run on anything other than Windows.

Node.js >= 4 is required. To install, type this at the command line:

npm install @akryum/winattr

Or:

yarn add @akryum/winattr

Usage

get(path, callback)

path - Path to file or directory callback(err,attrs) - A callback which is called upon completion

winattr.get("path/to/file.ext", function(err, attrs) {
	if (err == null) console.log(attrs);
});

If you omit the callback, a Promise will be return instead.

getSync(path)

path - Path to file or directory

Returns an Object or throws an error if the file or dir cannot be found/accessed.

var attrs = winattr.getSync("path/to/file.ext");

console.log(attrs);

set(path, attrs, callback)

path - Path to file or directory attrs - An object containing attributes to change callback(err) - A callback which is called upon completion

winattr.set("path/to/folder/", {readonly:true}, function(err) {
	if (err == null) console.log("success");
});

If you omit the callback, a Promise will be return instead.

setSync(path, attrs)

path - Path to file or directory attrs - An object containing attributes to change

Throws an error if the file or dir cannot be found/accessed.

winattr.setSync("path/to/folder/", {readonly:true});
