TypeError: csv.fromPath is not a function (convert csv file to sha1 script)

Question

im trying to execute a sample script that reads a CSV file. and then make the data into SHA1 hash. I copied the sample from this git:

https://gist.github.com/cdurth/6735c82cd11c5a057bd4

I get this error:

C:\Users\test\Desktop\convert\csvParseToSha1.js:14
 .fromPath(inputFile)
  ^

TypeError: csv.fromPath is not a function
    at Object.<anonymous> (C:\Users\Nope\Desktop\convert\csvParseToSha1.js:14:3)

    at Function.executeUserEntryPoint [as runMain] (internal/modules/run_main.js:74:12)
    at internal/main/run_main_module.js:18:47

The sample code:

var fs = require('fs');
var csv = require("fast-csv");
var sha1 = require('sha1');

var inputFile = 'emailList.csv';
var outputFile = 'sha1List.csv';

var csvStream = csv.format({headers: false}),
    writableStream = fs.createWriteStream(outputFile);

csvStream.pipe(writableStream);

csv
 .fromPath(inputFile)
 .on("data", function(data){
   var hashed = sha1(data[0])
   csvStream.write([hashed]);
 })
 .on("end", function(){
     csvStream.end();
     console.log("done");
 });

the fast-csv version is 4.1.3

Michael · Accepted Answer · 2020-04-21 12:46:30Z

so i have changed csv.fromPath() to csv.parseFile()

var fs = require('fs');
var csv = require("fast-csv");
var sha1 = require('sha1');

var inputFile = 'emailList.csv';
var outputFile = 'sha1List.csv';

var csvStream = csv.format({headers: false}),
    writableStream = fs.createWriteStream(outputFile);

csvStream.pipe(writableStream);

csv
 .parseFile()(inputFile)
 .on("data", function(data){
   var hashed = sha1(data[0])
   csvStream.write([hashed]);
 })
 .on("end", function(){
     csvStream.end();
     console.log("done");
 });

and now i get this:

internal/fs/utils.js:535
    throw new ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE(propName, ['string', 'Buffer', 'URL'], path);
    ^

TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string or an instance of Buffer or URL. Received undefined
