Js - Getting A List Of Files And Directories From A Given Directory

I want to get a list of all files and directories in a specific path. lets say in 'C:\Dir1'

Solution 1:

you can use activex object as follow

functionShowFolderFileList(folderspec)   
{   
    var   fso,   f,   f1,   fc,   s;   
    fso   =   newActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");   
    f   =   fso.GetFolder(folderspec);   
    fc   =   newEnumerator(f.files);   
    s   =   "";   
    for   (;   !fc.atEnd();   fc.moveNext())   
    {   
          s   +=   fc.item();   
          s   +=   "<br>";   
    }   
    return(s);   
}

Solution 2:

Use findit

var finder = require('findit').find(__dirname);
var files = [];

finder.on('path', function (file, stat) {
    files.push(file);
});

finder.on('end', function () {
    console.log(files);
});
