Assignment: File Manager

Description

The task is to implement File Manager using Node.js APIs. See full description here.

The file manager should be able to do the following:

• Work using CLI
• Perform basic file operations (copy, move, delete, rename, etc.)
• Utilize Streams API
• Get information about the host machine operating system
• Perform hash calculations
• Compress and decompress files

Commands

Launch an app

npm run start

Launch an app with a username

npm run start -- --username=your_username

Exit an app

.exit

Go up from the current directory

up

Navigate to another folder from the current directory

cd path_to_directory

List all files and folders in the current directory

Copy a file

cp path_to_file path_to_new_directory

Move a file (the initial file will be deleted)

mv path_to_file path_to_new_directory

Delete a file

rm path_to_file

Print operating system info:

• Get EOL (default system End-Of-Line)

os --EOL

• Get host machine CPUs info

os --cpus

• Get the home directory

os --homedir

• Get the current system user name

os --username

• Get CPU architecture

os --architecture

Calculate hash for a file

hash path_to_file

Compress a file (using Brotli algorithm)

compress path_to_file path_to_destination

Decompress file (using Brotli algorithm)

decompress path_to_file path_to_destination
