How to iterate through folder in JS without changing filenames












0















I already have code that can iterate through the files once they have been renamed 0.xml, 1.xml, 2.xml etc.



var promises = ;
for (i = 0; i < numberOfFiles; i++) {
promises.push(xmlPromise('data/sequence/xml/'+i+'.xml'));
}


However, if possible, I would like to keep the original names and iterate through (20180828-110359.369_I01_0000905_wt_calib.ppm3_croped.xml, 20180828-110359.436_I01_0000907_wt_calib.ppm3_croped.xml etc.)

  • There's no way for you to loop through them without getting a list of file names. So far it looks like you don't know the file names which is why you need to rename each file to integers so you can increment through them. Depending on how you handle your code, a single gap on the increment or a mis-renamed file is already a huge problem. Like @showdev said, you need to get the list of files.
