Now that you have a handle to a file, you can get the file's properties, or access the file itself. For now, I'll simply read its contents. Calling handle. To get the data from the blob, call one of its methods , slice , stream , text , or arrayBuffer. If the file on disk is modified, the File object becomes unreadable and you'll need to call getFile again to get a new File object to read the changed data.
When users click the Open button, the browser shows a file picker. In the text editor, there are two ways to save a file: Save , and Save As.
Save simply writes the changes back to the original file using the file handle retrieved earlier. But Save As creates a new file, and thus requires a new file handle. To save a file, call showSaveFilePicker , which will show the file picker in "save" mode, allowing the user to pick a new file they want to use for saving.
For the text editor, I also wanted it to automatically add a. You can find all the code for saving changes to a file in my text editor demo on GitHub. The core file system interactions are in fs-helpers.
At its simplest, the process looks like the code below. I'll walk through each step and explain it. Create the stream by calling createWritable on the file handle object. When createWritable is called, the browser first checks if the user has granted write permission to the file. If permission to write hasn't been granted, the browser will prompt the user for permission. If permission isn't granted, createWritable will throw a DOMException , and the app will not be able to write to the file.
The write method takes a string, which is what's needed for a text editor. But it can also take a BufferSource , or a Blob.
For example, you can pipe a stream directly to it:. You can also seek , or truncate within the stream to update the file at a specific position, or resize the file. In many cases you may want your app to suggest a default file name or location. For example, a text editor might want to suggest a default file name of Untitled Text. You can achieve this by passing a suggestedName property as part of the showSaveFilePicker options. The same goes for the default start directory. If you're building a text editor, you may want to start the file save or file open dialog in the default documents folder, whereas for an image editor, may want to start in the default pictures folder.
Apart from well-known system directories, you can also pass an existing file or directory handle as a value for startIn. The dialog would then open in the same directory. Sometimes applications have different pickers for different purposes. For example, a rich text editor may allow the user to open text files, but also to import images.
By default, each file picker would open at the last-remembered location. You can circumvent this by storing id values for each type of picker. If an id is specified, the file picker implementation will remember a separate last-used directory for pickers with that same id.
File handles and directory handles are serializable, which means that you can save a file or directory handle to IndexedDB, or call postMessage to send them between the same top-level origin.
Saving file or directory handles to IndexedDB means that you can store state, or remember which files or directories a user was working on. This makes it possible to keep a list of recently opened or edited files, offer to re-open the last file when the app is opened, restore the previous working directory, and more.
In the text editor, I store a list of the five most recent files the user has opened, making it easy to access those files again. The code example below shows storing and retrieving a file handle and a directory handle. You can see this in action over on Glitch I use the idb-keyval library for brevity. Since permissions currently are not persisted between sessions, you should verify whether the user has granted permission to the file or directory using queryPermission.

Thank you! Most of the interaction with files and directories is accomplished through handles. These handles represent the file or directory on the user's system.
You must first gain access to them by showing the user a file or directory picker. The methods which allow this are window. Once these are called, the file picker presents itself and the user selects either a file or directory. Once this happens successfully, a handle is returned. You can also gain access to file handles via the DataTransferItem. The handle provides its own functionality and there are a few differences depending on whether a file or directory was selected see the interfaces section for specific details.
You then can access file data, or information including children of the directory selected.
