Rajesh Kumar YadavCreate a new file as app.js and paste below code -
app.js
const readline = require('readline');
const fs = require('fs');
var file = 'path.to.file';
var linesCount = 0;
var rl = readline.createInterface({
input: fs.createReadStream(file),
output: process.stdout,
terminal: false
});
rl.on('line', function (line) {
linesCount++; // on each linebreak, add +1 to 'linesCount'
});
rl.on('close', function () {
console.log(linesCount); // print the result when the 'close' event is called
});
Run below command -
node app.js
You will get the line count of text file.
With all that being said, I highly recommend you keep learning!
