All the callback functions in `fs` module are supposed to be executed
with no context (`this` value should not be a valid object). But
`mkdtemp`'s callback will have the `FSReqWrap` object as the context.
Sample code to reproduce the problem
'use strict';
const fs = require('fs');
fs.mkdtemp('/tmp/abcd', null, function() {
console.log(this);
});
This would print
FSReqWrap { oncomplete: [Function] }
But that should have printed `null` and this patch fixes that.

This makes several changes:
1. Allow path/filename to be passed in as a Buffer on fs methods
2. Add `options.encoding` to fs.readdir, fs.readdirSync, fs.readlink,
fs.readlinkSync and fs.watch.
3. Documentation updates
For 1... it's now possible to do:
```js
fs.open(Buffer('/fs/foo/bar'), 'w+', (err, fd) => { });
```
For 2...
```js
fs.readdir('/fs/foo/bar', {encoding:'hex'}, (err,list) => { });
fs.readdir('/fs/foo/bar', {encoding:'buffer'}, (err, list) => { });
```
encoding can also be passed as a string
```js
fs.readdir('/fs/foo/bar', 'hex', (err,list) => { });
```
The default encoding is set to UTF8 so this addresses the
discrepency that existed previously between fs.readdir and
fs.watch handling filenames differently.

Oversight to not pass blksize to fs.Stats on initialization.
Also added a test to make sure the object property has been set. Since
now on Windows both blksize and blocks will simply be set to undefined.
By building the fs.Stats object in JS, which is returned by all fs stat
functions, calls to v8::Object::Set() are removed. This also includes
creating all associated Date objects in JS, rather than using
v8::Date::New(). Both these changes have significant performance gains.
Note that the returned value from fs.stat changes slightly for non-POSIX
systems. Whereas before the stats object would be missing blocks and
blksize keys, it now has these keys with undefined as the value.

Even if stdio streams are opened as file streams, we should not ever try

Currently fs.watch does not have an option to specify if a directory
should be recursively watched for events across all subdirectories.
Several file watcher APIs support this. FSEvents on OS X > 10.5 is
one example. libuv has added support for FSEvents, but fs.watch had
no way to specify that a recursive watch was required.
fs.watch now has an additional boolean option 'recursive'. When set
to true, and when supported, fs.watch will return notifications for
the entire directory tree hierarchy rooted at the specified path.
fs.truncate() and its synchronous sibling are implemented in terms of
open() + ftruncate(). Unfortunately, it opened the target file with
mode 'w' a.k.a. 'write-only and create or truncate at open'.
The subsequent call to ftruncate() then moved the end-of-file pointer
from zero to the requested offset with the net result of a file that's
neatly truncated at the right offset and filled with zero bytes only.
This bug was introduced in commit 168a5557 but in fairness, before that
commit fs.truncate() worked like fs.ftruncate() so it seems we've never
had a working fs.truncate() until now.
Fixes#6233.
I haven't actually tested this code, but was reading it due to a
post that linked to the code here:
http://dailyjs.com/2013/09/26/libuv/
As I was reading through the code, I noticed a path that can't
be reached.
I didn't strictly follow the contributing guide:
https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Contributing
but the change seems safe.
Feel free to close this out. I'm not sure if it was just an oversight
or what.
Prior, strings would first be converted to a Buffer before being written
to disk. Now the intermediary step has been removed.
Other changes of note:
* Class member "must_free" was added to req_wrap so to track if the
memory needs to be manually cleaned up after use.
* External String Resource support, so the memory will be used directly
instead of copying out the data.
* Docs have been updated to reflect that if position is not a number
then it will assume null. Previously it specified the argument must be
null, but that was not how the code worked. An attempt was made to
only support == null, but there were too many tests that assumed !=
number would be enough.
* Docs update show some of the write/writeSync arguments are optional.
Libuv now returns errors directly. Make everything in src/ and lib/
follow suit.
The changes to lib/ are not strictly necessary but they remove the need
for the abominations that are process._errno and node::SetErrno().
All compile time warnings about using deprecated APIs have been
suppressed by updating node's API. Though there are still many function
calls that can accept Isolate, and still need to be updated.
node_isolate had to be added as an extern variable in node.h and
node_object_wrap.h
Also a couple small fixes for Error handling.
Before v8 3.16.6 the error stack message was lazily written when it was
needed, which allowed you to change the message after instantiation.
Then the stack would be written with the new message the first time it
was accessed. Though that has changed. Now it creates the stack message
on instantiation. So setting a different message afterwards won't be
displayed.
This is not a complete fix for the problem. Getting error without any
message isn't very useful.
Commit a804347 makes fs function rethrow errors when the callback is
omitted. While the right thing to do, it's a change from the old v0.8
behavior where such errors were silently ignored.
To give users time to upgrade, temporarily disable that and replace it
with a function that warns once about the deprecated behavior.
Close#5005
Now that highWaterMark increases when there are large reads, this
greatly reduces the number of calls necessary to _read(size), assuming
that _read actually respects the size argument.
Ability to return just the length of listeners for a given type, using
EventEmitter.listenerCount(emitter, event). This will be a lot cheaper
than creating a copy of the listeners array just to check its length.
This makes it so that `stream.push(chunk)` is the only way to signal the
end of reading, removing the confusing disparity between the
callback-style _read method, and the fact that most real-world streams
do not have a 1:1 corollation between the "please give me data" event,
and the actual arrival of a chunk of data.
It is still possible, of course, to implement a `CallbackReadable` on
top of this. Simply provide a method like this as the callback:
function readCallback(er, chunk) {
if (er)
stream.emit('error', er);
else
stream.push(chunk);
}
However, *only* fs streams actually would behave in this way, so it
makes not a lot of sense to make TCP, TLS, HTTP, and all the rest have
to bend into this uncomfortable paradigm.
It seems like a good idea on the face of it, but lowWaterMarks are
actually not useful, and in practice should always be set to zero.
It would be worthwhile for writers if we actually did some kind of
writev() type of thing, but actually this just delays calling write()
and the overhead of doing a bunch of Buffer copies is not worth the
slight benefit of calling write() fewer times.
This increases fs.WriteStream throughput dramatically by removing the
"higher default water marks" for fs.WriteStream.
Also includes a benchmark. Current performance is significantly higher
than v0.8 for strings at all tested levels except size=1. Buffer
performance is still lackluster.
Further improvement in the stream.Writable base class is required, but
this is a start.
Fix an exception that was raised when the WriteStream was closed
immediately after creating it:
TypeError: Cannot read property 'fd' of undefined
at WriteStream.close (fs.js:1537:18)
<snip>
Avoid the TypeError and make sure the file descriptor is closed.
Fixes#4745.
Make `fs.createReadStream({ end: 42 })` work.
Before this commit, it worked only when used like this:
`fs.createReadStream({ start: 0, end: 42 })` - only when `start` was specified
by the caller.
Fixes#4423.
Enable long stacktraces if NODE_DEBUG=fs is set in the environment. Only
applies to the default rethrow callback; it's to help you find places where
you forgot to pass in a callback.
Use a default callback if the user omitted one. Avoids errors like the one
below:
fs.js:777
if (err) return callback(err);
^
TypeError: object is not a function
at fs.appendFile (fs.js:777:21)
at Object.oncomplete (fs.js:297:15)
This commit fixes the behavior of fs.lchmod(), fs.lchown() and fs.readFile()
when the callback is omitted. Before, they silently swallowed errors.
Fixes#4352.
Make sure the deletion event gets reported in the following scenario:
1. Watch a file.
2. The initial stat() goes okay.
3. Something deletes the watched file.
4. The second stat() fails with ENOENT.
The second stat() translates into the first 'change' event but a logic error
stopped it from getting emitted.
Fixes#4027.
Fixes a minor oversight introduced in 168a555, resulting in the following error:
fs.js:467
return fs.ftruncateSync(path, len, callback);
^
ReferenceError: callback is not defined
at Object.fs.truncateSync (fs.js:467:40)
The destroy() method of fs.ReadStream and fs.WriteStream takes a callback.
It's a leftover from the node 0.1 days, undocumented and not part of the
streams API. Remove it.
Before this commit, `fs.unwatchFile(path)` removed *all* listeners for `path`.
The function is overloaded now: `fs.unwatchFile(path)` still removes all
listeners, but `fs.unwatchFile(path, cb)` lets you remove a specific listener.
Fixes#3660.
There is no need for fs.readFile() to be using pread rather than read.
The default semantics of read() are such that subsequent reads are where
we want them anyway.
