Filer.js is a Unix-like wrapper library for the HTML5 filesystem API, written in the javascript programming language. It was first announced on 27 December 2011 by Google Chrome engineer Eric Bidelman on his personal blog.[1]

Features

  • unix-like commands for interacting with filesystems, such as cp, cd, mkdir, mv amongst others.
  • Uses asynchronous functions and callbacks to comply with the HTML5 filesystem API.[2]
  • Accepts multiple types when working with entries. Can accept entries as string paths or as filesystem URLS.[1]
