How to create full path with node's fs.mkdirSync?

Question

I\'m trying to create a full path if it doesn\'t exist.

The code looks like this:

var fs = require(\'fs\');
if (!fs.existsSync(newDest)) fs.mkdirSync

fs-extra adds file system methods that aren't included in the native fs module. It is a drop in replacement for fs.

Install fs-extra

$ npm install --save fs-extra

const fs = require("fs-extra");
// Make sure the output directory is there.
fs.ensureDirSync(newDest);

There are sync and async options.
