{{APIRef("File and Directory Entries API")}}{{Non-standard_Header}}{{Deprecated_Header}}

In the File and Directory Entries API, a FileSystemSync object represents a file system. It has two properties.

[!WARNING] This interface is deprecated and is no more on the standard track. Do not use it anymore. Use the File System API instead.

Basic concepts

The FileSystemSync object is your gateway to the entire API and you will use it a lot. So once you have a reference, cache the object in a global variable or class property.

Instance properties

  • name {{ReadOnlyInline}} {{Non-standard_Inline}} {{Deprecated_Inline}}
    • : A string that represents the name of the file system. The name must be unique across the list of exposed file systems.
  • root {{ReadOnlyInline}} {{Non-standard_Inline}} {{Deprecated_Inline}}
    • : A DirectoryEntry that is the root directory of the file system.

Specifications

This feature is not part of any specification anymore. It is no longer on track to become a standard.
