The fs module provides APIs for file operations, including accessing and manaing files and directories, obtaining file information statistics, and reading and writing data using a stream.
NOTE
The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 9. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.
import fs from '@ohos.file.fs';
Before using the APIs provided by this module to perform operations on a file or directory, obtain the application sandbox path of the file or directory as follows:
import UIAbility from '@ohos.app.ability.UIAbility';
import window from '@ohos.window';
export default class EntryAbility extends UIAbility {
onWindowStageCreate(windowStage: window.WindowStage) {
let context = this.context;
let pathDir = context.filesDir;
}
}
For details about how to obtain the application sandbox path, see Obtaining Application File Paths.

moveDir(src: string, dest: string, callback: AsyncCallback<void, Array<ConflictFiles>>): void
Moves a folder. This API uses an asynchronous callback to return the result.
An exception will be thrown if there is a folder with the same name in the destination directory.
System capability: SystemCapability.FileManagement.File.FileIO
Parameters

---|---|---|---|
src | string | Yes | Application sandbox path of the folder to move. |
dest | string | Yes | Application sandbox path of the destination folder. |
callback | AsyncCallback<void, Array<ConflictFiles>> | Yes | Callback invoked to return the result. |
Error codes
For details about the error codes, see Basic File IO Error Codes.
Example
import { BusinessError } from '@ohos.base';
import fs, { ConflictFiles } from '@ohos.file.fs';
// move directory from srcPath to destPath
let srcPath = pathDir + "/srcDir/";
let destPath = pathDir + "/destDir/";
fs.moveDir(srcPath, destPath, (err: BusinessError<Array<ConflictFiles>>) => {
if (err && err.code == 13900015) {
for (let i = 0; i < err.data.length; i++) {
console.error("move directory failed with conflicting files: " + err.data[i].srcFile + " " + err.data[i].destFile);

Parameters
Name | Type | Mandatory | Description |
---|---|---|---|
src | string | Yes | Application sandbox path of the folder to move. |
dest | string | Yes | Application sandbox path of the destination folder. |
mode | number | No | Mode for moving the folder. The default value is 0. - 0: Throw an exception if a directory conflict occurs. Throw an exception if there is a folder with the same name in the destination directory. - 1: Throw an exception if a file conflict occurs. Throw an exception if there is a folder with the same name in the destination folder and there are files with the same name in the conflicting folder. All the non-conflicting files in the source folder will be moved to the destination folder, and the non-conflicting files in the destination folder will be retained. The data attribute in the error returned provides information about the conflicting files in the Array<ConflictFiles> format. - 2: Forcibly overwrite the conflicting files in the destination directory. If there is a folder with the same name in the destination directory and there are files with the same name in the conflicting folder, all the files with the same name in the destination folder will be overwritten and the non-conflicting files will be retained. - 3: Forcibly overwrite the conflicting folder. Move the source folder to the destination directory and overwrite the conflicting folder completely. That is, if there is a folder with the same name in the destination directory, all the original files in that folder will not be retained. |

write(buffer: ArrayBuffer | string, options?: WriteOptions): Promise<number>
Writes data to a file. This API uses a promise to return the data.
System capability: SystemCapability.FileManagement.File.FileIO
Parameters
Name | Type | Mandatory | Description |
---|---|---|---|
buffer | ArrayBuffer | string | Yes | Data to write. It can be a string or data from a buffer. |
options | WriteOptions | No | The options are as follows: - length (number): length of the data to write. The default value is the buffer length. - offset (number): start position to write the data (it is determined by filePointer plus offset). This parameter is optional. By default, data is written from the filePointer. - encoding (string): format of the data to be encoded when the data is a string. The default value is 'utf-8', which is the only value supported. |
Return value
Type | Description |
---|---|
Promise<number> | Promise used to return the length of the data written. |
