When using the saveToFile method, will it create the .vcf file? about vcards-js HOT 8 CLOSED

The VCF does not have to exist, but the directory does have to exist. If you believe the directory does exist and the path is relative to your location, try "./public/alex-lopez.vcf"

Let me know. It should work. Try logging out process.cwd() in Node if you're unsure of the current working directory. It might not be what you're expecting.

Also make sure the process has read/write permissions.

it seems any folder I try I get the same error, I'm using this inside of meteor so I guess things get a bit more tricky.

current working directory is, /vdexter/.meteor/local/build/programs/server

If I set it to save to /AlexLopez.vcf I get no errors, but I also have no clue where exactly it is getting saved.

Ah I found it, guess I have to ./../ my way through a large number of folders.

Oh, right. Meteor. I don't have Meteor right in front of me, and I don't remember the preferred way to get the project root. You could use the absolute path to the project, but I can understand not wanting to have to do that.

What does this return?
process.env.PWD

"Meteor Magic™" might point that to the project root. I'll have to wait until later to test it myself, though.

I got it working, I just had to go back 5 folders, I'm okay with that for now.
process.env.PWD logs

/Users/alex/Desktop/vdexter/vdexter

Cool. So you could do something like:

vCard.saveToFile(process.env.PWD + '/public/myCard.vcf');

Ah, yes of course! Thanks for your help.
