• Synchronously append data to a file, creating the file if it does not yet exist. data can be a string or a Buffer.

    The mode option only affects the newly created file. See open for more details.

    import { appendFileSync } from 'fs';

    try {
    appendFileSync('message.txt', 'data to append');
    console.log('The "data to append" was appended to file!');
    } catch (err) {
    // Handle the error
    }

    If options is a string, then it specifies the encoding:

    import { appendFileSync } from 'fs';

    appendFileSync('message.txt', 'data to append', 'utf8');

    The path may be specified as a numeric file descriptor that has been opened for appending (using fs.open() or fs.openSync()). The file descriptor will not be closed automatically.

    import { openSync, closeSync, appendFileSync } from 'fs';

    let fd;

    try {
    fd = openSync('message.txt', 'a');
    appendFileSync(fd, 'data to append', 'utf8');
    } catch (err) {
    // Handle the error
    } finally {
    if (fd !== undefined)
    closeSync(fd);
    }
