Creates a directory, if it does not exist.
|
|
|
|
- Use `fs.existsSync()` to check if the directory exists, `fs.mkdirSync()` to create it.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const fs = require('fs');
|
|
|
|
const createDirIfNotExists = dir =>
|
|
!fs.existsSync(dir) ? fs.mkdirSync(dir) : undefined;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
createDirIfNotExists('test');
|
|
// creates the directory 'test', if it doesn't exist
|
|
```
