ReadWriteFiles

Read and write files

Overview

This is a versatile tool designed to interact with the local file system. It allows users to perform essential file operations such as reading, writing, and listing files and directories. It is optimized to work seamlessly in Azure App Services and container-based applications, making it suitable for a wide range of cloud-hosted or on-premises environments. With an easy-to-use interface, the tool is ideal for developers or administrators needing to manage or debug files and directories within an application.

Purpose

This tool enables users to:

• Browse directories: View the contents of directories, including folders and files.
• Read and write files: Load and modify file content within the local file system.
• Create directories: Generate new folders within specified paths.
• Create files: Write new text files to a specified directory with customizable content.

The tool is handy for troubleshooting and testing scenarios where users may need to interact directly with the file system in an environment hosted in the cloud (Azure).

Warning

When using the File System Explorer in a production environment, ensure that operations like file creation, modification, or deletion are carefully monitored. Unauthorized access to critical file paths could lead to unintended data loss or system instability. Unless otherwise secured, this tool should primarily be used in test or development environments.
