Example 1: how to right plain text format file in node js

var fs = require('fs')
var logger = fs.createWriteStream('log.txt', {
  flags: 'a' // 'a' means appending (old data will be preserved)
})

logger.write('some data') // append string to your file
logger.write('more data') // again
logger.write('and more') // again

Example 2: writefile in node js

// write_stream.js

const fs = require('fs');

let writeStream = fs.createWriteStream('secret.txt');

// write some data with a base64 encoding
writeStream.write('aef35ghhjdk74hja83ksnfjk888sfsf', 'base64');

// the finish event is emitted when all data has been flushed from the stream
writeStream.on('finish', () => {
    console.log('wrote all data to file');
});

// close the stream
writeStream.end();
