function Deno.readFileSync
import { Deno } from "https://deno.land/x/levo@v0.0.27/templates/new-project/lib/lib.deno_runtime.d.ts";
const { readFileSync } = Deno;

Synchronously reads and returns the entire contents of a file as an array of bytes. TextDecoder can be used to transform the bytes to string if required. Reading a directory returns an empty data array.

const decoder = new TextDecoder("utf-8");
const data = Deno.readFileSync("hello.txt");
console.log(decoder.decode(data));

Requires allow-read permission.

Parameters

path: string | URL

Returns

Uint8Array
