fs writeFile after truncate doesn't write at beginning of the file
- Version: v11.3.0
- Platform: Win 10
Test case:
var fs = require('fs').promises; async function bug() { await fs.writeFile('test', '012345678901234567890123456789'); const fd = await fs.open('test', 'r+'); await fd.readFile({ encoding: 'utf8' }); await fd.truncate(0); await fd.writeFile('Extra data not at beginning'); await fd.close(); } bug();
This will result a file with lots of '\0' at beginning of the file.
And w/o the ability to seek, there is no way to write at the beginning of the file.
