Method description:

Synchronous version (link: #), file content interception operation.

Grammar:


fs.truncateSync(path, len)

Since this method belongs to the fs module, the fs module (var fs= require(" fs ")) needs to be introduced before use.

Receiving parameters:

Path                    The file path

Len                          Truncate the length, leaving only the characters within the length of the character, and the excess will be cleared.

Example:


var fs = require('fs');
fs.truncateSync('126.txt', 3);

Source:


fs.truncateSync = function(path, len) {
  if (util.isNumber(path)) {
    // legacy
    return fs.ftruncateSync(path, len);
  }
  if (util.isUndefined(len)) {
    len = 0;
  }
  // allow error to be thrown, but still close fd.
  var fd = fs.openSync(path, 'r+');
  try {
    var ret = fs.ftruncateSync(fd, len);
  } finally {
    fs.closeSync(fd);
  }
  return ret;
};
