    If the file already exists, this function does nothing. If the parent directories for the file do not exist, they are created.

    Requires --allow-read and --allow-write permissions.

    Parameters

    • filePath: string | URL

      The path of the file to ensure, as a string or URL.

    Returns Promise<void>

    A void promise that resolves once the file exists.
