[![][npm-img]][npm-url] [![][travis-badge]][travis-url]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Monkey-patches for filesystem related things.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - Rewrite `require` function to load Node's modules from memory.
 | 
						|
  - Or rewrite the whole `fs` filesystem module.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Install
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```shell
 | 
						|
npm install --save fs-monkey
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Terms
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
An *fs-like* object is an object that implements methods of Node's
 | 
						|
[filesystem API](https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html).
 | 
						|
It is denoted as `vol`:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
let vol = {
 | 
						|
    readFile: () => { /* ... */ },
 | 
						|
    readFileSync: () => { /* ... */ },
 | 
						|
    // etc...
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Reference
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 - [`patchFs`](./docs/api/patchFs.md) - rewrites Node's filesystem module `fs` with *fs-like* object `vol`
 | 
						|
 - [`patchRequire`](./docs/api/patchRequire.md) - rewrites `require` function, patches Node's `module` module to use a given *fs-like* object for module loading
