..:: Source code - fs-async.js ::..

/*
This example shows asynchronous execution, non-blocking code.
console.log(contents); blocks process and that's why
console.log('Do something else!'); must wait

Successfully loads files up to 1000MB.
 */

//load modules
var fs = require('fs');

//asynchronous file reading
fs.readFile('./testfiles/largefile1000mb.txt', function(err, content){
	console.log(content);
});

//here process is not blocked. While file is loading the next console.log(); continue with execution

console.log('Do something else!');

/*
Conclusion: Due to asynchronous execution, first appear 'Do something else' then is file dumped.
 */
