Working Snippet Node 14.xx+

Create a output directory

  let rootDir = process.cwd()
  console.log("Current Directory"+ rootDir)

  let outDir = './out/';
  console.log("Out Directory"+ outDir)

  if (!fs.existsSync(outDir)){
      fs.mkdirSync(outDir);
  }else{
      console.log("Directory already exist");
  }
   
  // Save the raw file for each asset to the current working directory
  saveArrayAsFile(arrayBuffer,  outDir+ "fileName"+ new Date().getTime()+".png")

Save file function

const saveArrayAsFile =  (arrayBuffer, filePath)=> {
      fs.writeFile(filePath, Buffer.from(arrayBuffer), 'binary',  (err)=> {
          if (err) {
              console.log("There was an error writing the image")
          }
          else {
              console.log("Written File :" + filePath)
          }
      });
};
