Function xattrGet

xattrGet(
    path: string,
    attribute: string,
    options?: string[],
    position?: number,
): string | null
Get the value of an extended attribute for a file or directory. Attribute values are returned as ISO Latin-1 encoded strings so that arbitrary byte sequences are represented without loss. ASCII text attribute values appear readable as-is.
Parameters
- path: string
  Path to the file or directory. ~ is expanded.
- attribute: string
  Name of the extended attribute.
- Optionaloptions: string[]
  Array of option strings: "noFollow" (do not follow symlinks), "hfsCompression", "createOnly", "replaceOnly", "noSecurity", "noDefault". Pass an empty array or omit to use no options.
- Optionalposition: number
  Byte offset within the attribute data. Defaults to 0. Non-zero values are only valid for "com.apple.ResourceFork".
Returns string | null
The attribute value as a string, "" if the attribute exists but contains no data, or null if the attribute does not exist or an error occurs.
