File Counter

You are required to build a CLI tool using Node.js that counts lines, words, and characters in a text file.

The tool should accept a file path from the terminal. If the user does not pass a file path, it should print a friendly error.

Create a file called notes.txt with this content:

Node makes CLI tools useful.Files are common input.

Here are some example commands you can run to test your CLI:

node file-counter.js notes.txtnode file-counter.js missing.txtnode file-counter.js

On successful execution, the output should look like this:

File: notes.txtLines: 2Words: 9Characters: 52

If the file cannot be read, print a friendly error:

error: could not read file: missing.txt

If the user does not pass a file path, print this error:

error: please provide a file path

Errors should go to stderr, and the command should set a non-zero exit code.

The goal of this project is to practice reading command arguments, loading a file with Node.js, and turning file content into useful counts.

You will need these Node.js APIs:

• process.argv to read the file path from the terminal.

• node:fs/promises to read the file contents.

• node:path to print a clean file name.

import { readFile } from 'node:fs/promises';import path from 'node:path';const filePath = process.argv[2];function printError(message) {  console.error(`error: ${message}`);  process.exitCode = 1;}function getFileStats(text) {  return {    lines: text.length === 0 ? 0 : text.split(/\r?\n/).length,    words: text.trim().split(/\s+/).filter(Boolean).length,    characters: text.length,  };}async function main() {  if (!filePath) {    printError('please provide a file path');    return;  }  let text;  try {    text = await readFile(filePath, 'utf8');  } catch {    printError(`could not read file: ${filePath}`);    return;  }  const stats = getFileStats(text);  console.log(`File: ${path.basename(filePath)}`);  console.log(`Lines: ${stats.lines}`);  console.log(`Words: ${stats.words}`);  console.log(`Characters: ${stats.characters}`);}await main();
