Flystorage is a Filesystem Equivalent Package for Node.js

Flysystem developer Frank de Jonge created Flystorage, a single API to integrate with many storage solutions for Node.js, written in Typescript.

Want to use #flysystem, but your boss forces you to write your apps in #nodejs, or god forbid... #typescript? You're in luck!

Because I do not adequately value my free time, you can now use https://t.co/9j9iHelhtX for all your file storage needs. Don't forget to like & subscribe

Like the PHP version, this package uses the adapter pattern to create a consistent API around managing files with Node.js, giving you the same API to upload files to S3, in-memory, or a local filesystem:

// Manage files
await storage.write('path/to/file.txt', contents, options);
const exists = await storage.fileExists('path/to/file.txt');
const contents = await storage.read('path/to/file.txt');
await storage.deleteFile('path/to/file.txt');
await storage.copyFile('from/here.txt', 'to/there.txt', {
    visibility: Visibility.PRIVATE,
});
 
// Manage directories
await storage.createDirectory('path/to/directory');
await storage.deleteDirectory('path/to/directory');
await storage.directoryExists('path/to/directory');
 
// and more...

The full FileStorage API for this package is available in the documentation. With the initial release of this package, it supports the following adapters:

• Amazon S3
• Azure Storage Blob
• Google Cloud Storage
• In-Memory
• Local FS

If you need to support another adapter (i.e., FTP), this package is written in TypeScript, which provides the StorageAdapter interface.
