+# @nodelib/fs.scandir
+
+> List files and directories inside the specified directory.
+
+## :bulb: Highlights
+
+The package is aimed at obtaining information about entries in the directory.
+
+* :moneybag: Returns useful information: `name`, `path`, `dirent` and `stats` (optional).
+* :gear: On Node.js 10.10+ uses the mechanism without additional calls to determine the entry type. See [`old` and `modern` mode](#old-and-modern-mode).
+* :link: Can safely work with broken symbolic links.
+
+## Install
+
+```console
+npm install @nodelib/fs.scandir
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+```ts
+import * as fsScandir from '@nodelib/fs.scandir';
+
+fsScandir.scandir('path', (error, stats) => { /* … */ });
+```
+
+## API
+
+### .scandir(path, [optionsOrSettings], callback)
+
+Returns an array of plain objects ([`Entry`](#entry)) with information about entry for provided path with standard callback-style.
+
+```ts
+fsScandir.scandir('path', (error, entries) => { /* … */ });
+fsScandir.scandir('path', {}, (error, entries) => { /* … */ });
+fsScandir.scandir('path', new fsScandir.Settings(), (error, entries) => { /* … */ });
+```
+
+### .scandirSync(path, [optionsOrSettings])
+
+Returns an array of plain objects ([`Entry`](#entry)) with information about entry for provided path.
+
+```ts
+const entries = fsScandir.scandirSync('path');
+const entries = fsScandir.scandirSync('path', {});
+const entries = fsScandir.scandirSync(('path', new fsScandir.Settings());
+```
+
+#### path
+
+* Required: `true`
+* Type: `string | Buffer | URL`
+
+A path to a file. If a URL is provided, it must use the `file:` protocol.
+
+#### optionsOrSettings
+
+* Required: `false`
+* Type: `Options | Settings`
+* Default: An instance of `Settings` class
+
+An [`Options`](#options) object or an instance of [`Settings`](#settingsoptions) class.
+
+> :book: When you pass a plain object, an instance of the `Settings` class will be created automatically. If you plan to call the method frequently, use a pre-created instance of the `Settings` class.
+
+### Settings([options])
+
+A class of full settings of the package.
+
+```ts
+const settings = new fsScandir.Settings({ followSymbolicLinks: false });
+
+const entries = fsScandir.scandirSync('path', settings);
+```
+
+## Entry
+
+* `name` — The name of the entry (`unknown.txt`).
+* `path` — The path of the entry relative to call directory (`root/unknown.txt`).
+* `dirent` — An instance of [`fs.Dirent`](./src/types/index.ts) class. On Node.js below 10.10 will be emulated by [`DirentFromStats`](./src/utils/fs.ts) class.
+* `stats` (optional) — An instance of `fs.Stats` class.
+
+For example, the `scandir` call for `tools` directory with one directory inside:
+
+```ts
+{
+ dirent: Dirent { name: 'typedoc', /* … */ },
+ name: 'typedoc',
+ path: 'tools/typedoc'
+}
+```
+
+## Options
+
+### stats
+
+* Type: `boolean`
+* Default: `false`
+
+Adds an instance of `fs.Stats` class to the [`Entry`](#entry).
+
+> :book: Always use `fs.readdir` without the `withFileTypes` option. ??TODO??
+
+### followSymbolicLinks
+
+* Type: `boolean`
+* Default: `false`
+
+Follow symbolic links or not. Call `fs.stat` on symbolic link if `true`.
+
+### `throwErrorOnBrokenSymbolicLink`
+
+* Type: `boolean`
+* Default: `true`
+
+Throw an error when symbolic link is broken if `true` or safely use `lstat` call if `false`.
+
+### `pathSegmentSeparator`
+
+* Type: `string`
+* Default: `path.sep`
+
+By default, this package uses the correct path separator for your OS (`\` on Windows, `/` on Unix-like systems). But you can set this option to any separator character(s) that you want to use instead.
+
+### `fs`
+
+* Type: [`FileSystemAdapter`](./src/adapters/fs.ts)
+* Default: A default FS methods
+
+By default, the built-in Node.js module (`fs`) is used to work with the file system. You can replace any method with your own.
+
+```ts
+interface FileSystemAdapter {
+ lstat?: typeof fs.lstat;
+ stat?: typeof fs.stat;
+ lstatSync?: typeof fs.lstatSync;
+ statSync?: typeof fs.statSync;
+ readdir?: typeof fs.readdir;
+ readdirSync?: typeof fs.readdirSync;
+}
+
+const settings = new fsScandir.Settings({
+ fs: { lstat: fakeLstat }
+});
+```
+
+## `old` and `modern` mode
+
+This package has two modes that are used depending on the environment and parameters of use.
+
+### old
+
+* Node.js below `10.10` or when the `stats` option is enabled
+
+When working in the old mode, the directory is read first (`fs.readdir`), then the type of entries is determined (`fs.lstat` and/or `fs.stat` for symbolic links).
+
+### modern
+
+* Node.js 10.10+ and the `stats` option is disabled
+
+In the modern mode, reading the directory (`fs.readdir` with the `withFileTypes` option) is combined with obtaining information about its entries. An additional call for symbolic links (`fs.stat`) is still present.
+
+This mode makes fewer calls to the file system. It's faster.
