|  | - `options` `<Object>` | ||
|  |   - `spaces` `<Number|String>` Number of spaces to indent; or a string to use for indentation (i.e. pass `'\t'` for tab indentation). See [the docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/stringify#The_space_argument) for more info. | ||

|  | const fs = require('fs-extra') | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | // With a callback: | ||
|  | fs.writeJson('./package.json', {name: 'fs-extra'}, err => { | ||
|  |   if (err) return console.error(err) | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  |   console.log('success!') | ||
|  | }) | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | // With Promises: | ||
|  | fs.writeJson('./package.json', {name: 'fs-extra'}) | ||
|  | .then(() => { | ||
|  |   console.log('success!') | ||
|  | }) | ||
|  | .catch(err => { | ||
|  |   console.error(err) | ||
|  | }) | ||
|  | 
 | ||

|  |   try { | ||
|  |     await fs.writeJson('./package.json', {name: 'fs-extra'}) | ||
|  |     console.log('success!') | ||
