Walk through a directory recursively in node.js.

node-walk.es6

// ES6 version using asynchronous iterators, compatible with node v10.0+

const fs = require("fs");
const path = require("path");

async function* walk(dir) {
    for await (const d of await fs.promises.opendir(dir)) {
        const entry = path.join(dir, d.name);
        if (d.isDirectory()) yield* walk(entry);
        else if (d.isFile()) yield entry;
    }
}

// Then, use it with a simple async for loop
async function main() {
    for await (const p of walk('/tmp/'))
        console.log(p)
}

node-walk.js

// Callback-based version for old versions of Node
var fs = require("fs"),
	path = require("path");

function walk(dir, callback) {
	fs.readdir(dir, function(err, files) {
		if (err) throw err;
		files.forEach(function(file) {
			var filepath = path.join(dir, file);
			fs.stat(filepath, function(err,stats) {
				if (stats.isDirectory()) {
					walk(filepath, callback);
				} else if (stats.isFile()) {
					callback(filepath, stats);
				}
			});
		});
	});
}

if (exports) {
	exports.walk = walk;
} else {
	walk(".", manageFile);
}

I'm using Node 12 according to node -v

It just looked like the two parts of the May 11 comment were a standalone I could just run but thanks for the links I'll see if I can work it out!

You can easily turn it into a standalone, just wrap the top-level code in an async function:

async function* walk(dir) {
    for await (const d of await fs.promises.opendir(dir)) {
        const entry = path.join(dir, d.name);
        if (d.isDirectory()) yield* await walk(entry);
        else if (d.isFile()) yield entry;
    }
}
async function main() {
  for await (const p of walk('/tmp/'))
    console.log(p)
}
main()

Or do it all in one, like:

( async () => {
  for await (const p of walk('/tmp/'))
    console.log(p)
} )();

Here's an es6 version

const fs = require('fs').promises;
const path = require('path');

async function walk(dir) {
    let files = await fs.readdir(dir);
    files = await Promise.all(files.map(async file => {
        const filePath = path.join(dir, file);
        const stats = await fs.stat(filePath);
        if (stats.isDirectory()) return walk(filePath);
        else if(stats.isFile()) return filePath;
    }));

    return files.reduce((all, folderContents) => all.concat(folderContents), []);
}

I searched for this a lot of time , Thanks ;)

Any idea how to control parallel number?

Synchronous version:

const walkSync = (dir, callback) => {
  const files = fs.readdirSync(dir);
  files.forEach((file) => {
    var filepath = path.join(dir, file);
    const stats = fs.statSync(filepath);
    if (stats.isDirectory()) {
      walkSync(filepath, callback);
    } else if (stats.isFile()) {
      callback(filepath, stats);
    }
  });
};

@acidic9 just curious, is there a reason for a var on line 4 or it's just an oversight? The rest of places uses const, just seems like it could've been intentional :)

For fun, here is the ES6/Promises version with an added simple file-type filter:

    async walk(dir, ftype) {
        let files = await fs.readdir(dir)
        files = await Promise.all(files.map(async file => {
            const filePath = path.join(dir, file)
            const stats = await fs.stat(filePath)
            if (stats.isDirectory()) {
                return this.walk(filePath, ftype)
            } else if (stats.isFile() && file.endsWith(ftype)) {
                return filePath
            }
        }))

        // Filter out undefined entries before concatenating
        return files.filter(Boolean).reduce((all, folderContents) => all.concat(folderContents), [])
    }

Oh, and a minor correction to how you use it. Fairly sure you should have the inner await not just the outer:

for await (const p of await walk(folder, '.html')) {
    console.log(p)
}
