read-files extends fs by the static method readFiles.

fs.readFiles(filenames[, encoding, batchCount], callback)

Asynchronously reads the entire contents of the files specified in filenames.

filenames is an array of filenames.

encoding is a string specifying the files' encodings. The default is "utf8".

batchCount is a number specifying the number of files to process at a time before moving to the next batch (default 100).

callback is a callback function that is passed two arguments (err, data) where data is an object of the form:

{filename1: file1contents,filename2: file2contents,
…
}

Example:

varfs=require("fs");require("read-files");fs.readFiles(["file1","file2"],"utf8",function(err,data){if(err)throwerr;console.log(data);});
