I already have read the documentation of Node.js and, unless if I missed something, it does not tell what the parameters contain in certain operations, in particular fs.mkdi
Good way to do this is to use mkdirp module.
$ npm install mkdirp
Use it to run function that requires the directory. Callback is called after path is created or if path did already exists. Error err is set if mkdirp failed to create directory path.
var mkdirp = require('mkdirp');
mkdirp('/tmp/some/path/foo', function(err) {
// path exists unless there was an error
});
