Will "node-graceful-fs" make it's magic to all third party modules also?

[Filipe Deschamps]

Can you guys help me out to understand this? https://github.com/isaacs/node-graceful-fs

Will this module "patch" my node?

According to this line, it does patch fs.
This script is just doing minor improvements to fs so it can behave
the same way on all OSs (Windows).

Alan, I saw this, but I still can't fully understand.

When working with cluster, show I require it in the main app.js file, or inside the worker?

If it monkey-patched existing modules in the current process, then you need to require it once per process you want patched.  So in the case of cluster, you probably want it in the worker so that worker code gets patched.

Perfect, thanks!

I will make the tests and post it here.

[Filipe Deschamps]

Yep, it does patch the worker, and it works :)
