# unionfs
**NOTE:** This is a fork of https://www.npmjs.com/package/unionfs, since it has a significant bug,
and it hasn't been updated in years. The bug is also not fixed in the upstream github repo though.
Creates a union of multiple `fs` file systems.

npm install --save unionfs
This module allows you to use multiple objects that have file system `fs` API at the same time.
```js
import { ufs } from 'unionfs';
import { fs as fs1 } from 'memfs';
import * as fs2 from 'fs';
ufs.use(fs1).use(fs2);
ufs.readFileSync(/* ... */);
```
Use this module with [`memfs`][memfs] and [`linkfs`][linkfs].
`memfs` allows you to create virtual in-memory file system. `linkfs` allows you to redirect `fs` paths.
You can also use other _fs-like_ objects.
```js
import * as fs from 'fs';
import { Volume } from 'memfs';
import * as MemoryFileSystem from 'memory-fs';
import { ufs } from 'unionfs';
const vol1 = Volume.fromJSON({ '/memfs-1': '1' });
const vol2 = Volume.fromJSON({ '/memfs-2': '2' });
const memoryFs = new MemoryFileSystem();
memoryFs.writeFileSync('/memory-fs', '3');
ufs.use(fs).use(vol1).use(vol2).use(memoryFs);
console.log(ufs.readFileSync('/memfs-1', 'utf8')); // 1
console.log(ufs.readFileSync('/memfs-2', 'utf8')); // 2
console.log(ufs.readFileSync('/memory-fs', 'utf8')); // 3
```
You can create a `Union` instance manually:
```javascript
import { Union } from 'unionfs';
var ufs1 = new Union();
ufs1.use(fs).use(vol);
var ufs2 = new Union();
ufs2.use(fs).use(/*...*/);
```
