Package Exports

touch
touch/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (touch) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

node-touch

For all your node touching needs.

Installing

npm install touch

CLI Usage:

See man touch

This package exports a binary called nodetouch that works mostly like the unix builtin touch(1).

API Usage:

var touch = require("touch")

Gives you the following functions:

touch(filename, options, cb)
touch.sync(filename, options)
touch.ftouch(fd, options, cb)
touch.ftouchSync(fd, options)

All the options objects are optional.

All the async functions return a Promise. If a callback function is provided, then it's attached to the Promise.

Options

force like touch -f Boolean
time like touch -t <date> Can be a Date object, or any parseable Date string, or epoch ms number.
atime like touch -a Can be either a Boolean, or a Date.
mtime like touch -m Can be either a Boolean, or a Date.
ref like touch -r <file> Must be path to a file.
nocreate like touch -c Boolean

If neither atime nor mtime are set, then both values are set. If one of them is set, then the other is not.

cli

This package creates a nodetouch command line executable that works very much like the unix builtin touch(1)
