# node-red-contrib-fs
[Node-Red](http://nodered.org) nodes that work with the host filing system.

# Nodes
- [file-lister](docs/file-lister.html) - List all files and/or folders from a given starting folder based on the search
option chosen. File and folder names allow filtering patterns. Also has options for file details and sub-folder recursion.
- file-copier - In progress. Simple node to copy files (optionally with wildcard specifications).

# Install

The recommended installation method is to use the Palette Manager in the Node-RED Editor.

Alternatively, run the following command in your Node-RED userDir folder.

npm install node-red-contrib-fs
