import { Deno } from "https://deno.land/x/deno@v2.0.4/cli/tsc/dts/lib.deno.ns.d.ts";
const { writeFile } = Deno;

Write data to the given path, by default creating a new file if needed, else overwriting.

const encoder = new TextEncoder();
const data = encoder.encode("Hello world\n");
await Deno.writeFile("hello1.txt", data);  // overwrite "hello1.txt" or create it
await Deno.writeFile("hello2.txt", data, { create: false });  // only works if "hello2.txt" exists
await Deno.writeFile("hello3.txt", data, { mode: 0o777 });  // set permissions on new file
await Deno.writeFile("hello4.txt", data, { append: true });  // add data to the end of the file

Requires allow-write permission, and allow-read if options.create is false.

path: string | URL
