In Unix, the ls utility lists the contents of directories, as well as associated information like types, permissions, owners, size, and more.

The objective of this project is to write a Node.js script that partially reimplements the ls utility.

General instructions

Here are the general instructions to complete this project:

  1. The script must be named lb_ls.js.
  2. The script must be written in Node.js.

Flags and arguments

The script must have the following synopsis:

$ node lb_ls.js [-rAR] [file ...]

Where:

  • -r is an optional flag used to output the list of entries in descending alphabetical order.
  • -A is an optional flag used to include the entries whose names begin with a dot ., except for the . and .. directories.
