fs write file encoding code example

Example 1: writefile in node js

// writefile.js

const fs = require('fs');

let lyrics = 'But still I\'m having memories of high speeds when the cops crashed\n' + 
             'As I laugh, pushin the gas while my Glocks blast\n' + 
             'We was young and we was dumb but we had heart';

// write to a new file named 2pac.txt
fs.writeFile('2pac.txt', lyrics, (err) => {
    // throws an error, you could also catch it here
    if (err) throw err;

    // success case, the file was saved
    console.log('Lyric saved!');
});

Example 2: fs.writefile

const fs = require('fs');

fs.writeFile("/tmp/test", "Hey there!", function(err) {
    if(err) {
        return console.log(err);
    }
    console.log("The file was saved!");
}); 

// Or
fs.writeFileSync('/tmp/test-sync', 'Hey there!');
