how to write file to parent folder with fs of nodejs?

node.js

Solution

Yes, that should work fine. The main issue I see is that you have no `/` between the dirname and the path.

So what you have now is more like:

fs.writeFile('/tmp/module../sibling_dir/file.txt', 'test');

try this:

fs.writeFile(__dirname + '/../sibling_dir/file.txt', 'test');

Problem

I want to write a file to the current script folder's parent folder (and sometimes subdirectories to that parent folder)? How should I write the path? Can this work? ``` fs.writeFile(__dirname + '../sibling_dir/file.txt', 'test'); ```
