how to read readfilesync in node code example

Example 1: readfilesync

try {
  const data = fs.readFileSync('/Users/joe/test.txt', 'utf8')
  console.log(data)
} catch (err) {
  console.error(err)

Example 2: readfile async nodejs

const fs = require('fs');
const util = require('util');

// Convert fs.readFile into Promise version of same    
const readFile = util.promisify(fs.readFile);

function getStuff() {

// with then()
getStuff().then(data => {
  console.log(data);
})
