rmSync(files)

Synchronously removes one or more files or directories, renaming directories to temporary names before deletion to avoid conflicts. Supports options like { recursive: true, force: true }. Ideal for scripts that require immediate, blocking cleanup.

Alias: rmSync()

Parameters:

• files <string> | <string[]>
• Returns: <void>

Example

const fs = require('fsmate');

fs.rmSync('/home/node_modules');
console.log('success');
