-# SmartFile
-> SmartFile offers smart ways to work with files in nodejs.
+# @push.rocks/smartfile
+
+> Provides a robust suite of tools for managing files in Node.js using TypeScript.
 
 ## Install
-To install SmartFile, use npm or Yarn as follows:
 
-```
-npm install @push.rocks/smartfile --save
-```
-Or:
-```
-yarn add @push.rocks/smartfile
+To integrate `@push.rocks/smartfile` into your project, run:
+
+```bash
+npm install @push.rocks/smartfile
 ```
 
 ## Usage
 
-SmartFile is a comprehensive toolkit for file manipulation in Node.js. It provides functionalities for working with the filesystem, in-memory operations, streaming, and handling virtual directories. Below, you will find examples showcasing how to utilize these functionalities effectively.
+`@push.rocks/smartfile` offers a comprehensive set of utilities for handling files in Node.js projects using modern TypeScript and ESM syntax. It simplifies various file operations such as reading, writing, copying, and streaming files, as well as working with directories and virtual file systems.
 
-### Basic File Operations
+### Key Features and Classes
 
-For reading and writing files, SmartFile provides synchronous and asynchronous methods. Here’s how you can use them:
+- **`SmartFile`**: Facilitates reading from and writing to individual files, managing metadata.
+- **`StreamFile`**: Optimizes memory usage by enabling efficient file streaming.
+- **`VirtualDirectory`**: Allows manipulation of a group of files or directories as a virtual file system.
 
-#### Async Write to File
+### Getting Started with ESM and TypeScript
+
+First, ensure your project supports ESM syntax and TypeScript. Then, begin by importing the desired features from `@push.rocks/smartfile`:
 
 ```typescript
-import { memory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
-
-const myData: string = 'Hello, SmartFile!';
-
-// Writing string data to a file asynchronously
-memory.toFs(myData, './data/hello.txt');
+import { SmartFile, StreamFile, VirtualDirectory, memory, fs as smartFs } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
 ```
 
-#### Sync Write to File
+### Reading and Writing Files
+
+#### Reading Files
+
+Reading a JSON file:
 
 ```typescript
-import { memory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
-
-const myData: string = 'Hello, World!';
-
-// Writing string data to a file synchronously
-memory.toFsSync(myData, './data/helloSync.txt');
+const myJsonFile: SmartFile = await SmartFile.fromFilePath('./data.json');
+const jsonData = JSON.parse(myJsonFile.contents.toString());
+console.log(jsonData);
 ```
 
-### Working with Streams
+#### Writing Files
 
-Streaming files to and from the filesystem is made easy with SmartFile. Here’s an example:
-
-#### Creating Read and Write Streams
+Writing content to a file:
 
 ```typescript
-import { fsStream } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
-import * as fs from 'fs';
-
-// Creating a read stream
-const readStream = fsStream.createReadStream('./data/readme.txt');
-
-// Creating a write stream
-const writeStream = fsStream.createWriteStream('./data/copy.txt');
-
-// Piping the read stream to the write stream
-readStream.pipe(writeStream);
+const filePath: string = './output.txt';
+const content: string = 'Hello, SmartFile!';
+await memory.toFs(content, filePath);
+console.log('File saved successfully.');
 ```
 
-### Dealing with Virtual Directories
+### Streaming Large Files
 
-Virtual directories allow you to group and manipulate files as if they were in a filesystem structure without actually writing them to disk.
+For large files, `StreamFile` provides a memory-efficient streaming solution:
 
 ```typescript
-import { VirtualDirectory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
-
-(async () => {
-  // Creating a virtual directory from the file system
-  const virtualDir = await VirtualDirectory.fromFsDirPath('./myDirectory');
-
-  // Adding files from another virtual directory
-  const anotherVirtualDir = await VirtualDirectory.fromFsDirPath('./anotherDirectory');
-  await virtualDir.addVirtualDirectory(anotherVirtualDir, 'merged');
-
-  // Saving the virtual directory to disk
-  await virtualDir.saveToDisk('./outputDirectory');
-})();
+import { createReadStream } from 'fs';
+const sourceStream = createReadStream('./large-video.mp4');
+const myStreamFile = await StreamFile.fromStream(sourceStream, 'large-video.mp4');
+await myStreamFile.writeToDir('./storage');
+console.log('Large file streamed to disk successfully.');
 ```
 
-### Advanced File Manipulation
+### Working with Virtual Directories
 
-SmartFile also allows for more advanced file manipulation techniques through the `SmartFile` class.
+`VirtualDirectory` abstracts a collection of files allowing operations to be performed as if they were on disk:
 
 ```typescript
-import { SmartFile } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
-
-(async () => {
-  // Create a SmartFile instance from a file path
-  const smartFile = await SmartFile.fromFilePath('./data/example.txt');
-
-  // Edit the file content
-  await smartFile.editContentAsString(async (currentContent: string) => {
-    return currentContent.toUpperCase();
-  });
-
-  // Write the changes back to disk
-  await smartFile.write();
-})();
+const virtualDir = new VirtualDirectory();
+virtualDir.addSmartfiles([smartFile1, smartFile2]); // Assuming these are SmartFile instances
+await virtualDir.saveToDisk('./virtual-output');
+console.log('Virtual directory saved to disk.');
 ```
 
-### Conversion and Interpretation
+### Advanced File Operations
 
-You can easily convert file contents to objects or interpret file types for further processing:
+`@push.rocks/smartfile` simplifies complex file operations, including:
+- Copying directories and files
+- Removing files or directories
+- Listing files and directories with filters
+- Reading file content directly into JavaScript objects
 
-```typescript
-import { memory } from '@push.rocks/smartfile';
+### Web File Handling
 
-(async () => {
-  const fileString: string = await fs.promises.readFile('./data/example.json', 'utf8');
-  const fileObject = memory.toObject(fileString, 'json');
+Handling files from HTTP requests:
+`@push.rocks/smartfile` offers utilities to work with files from web sources, making it simpler to manage downloads and uploads.
 
-  console.log(fileObject);
-  // Proceed with the object...
-})();
-```
+### Comprehensive File Management
 
-SmartFile simplifies handling files in a Node.js environment, providing a concise, promise-based API for various file operations, stream handling, and in-memory file manipulation. Whether you're dealing with physical files on the disk, manipulating file streams, or managing virtual files and directories, SmartFile has got you covered.
+Whether you're dealing with local files, directories, or files over the internet, `@push.rocks/smartfile` provides a comprehensive set of tools to streamline your workflow and reduce the complexity of file management in your Node.js projects.
