ENOENT：没有这样的文件或目录使用fs写入文件

Question

I am not sure where I went wrong to get this error:

{ Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '../dist/index.html'
    at Error (native)
  errno: -2,
  code: 'ENOENT',
  syscall: 'open',
  path: '../dist/index.html' }

I put a console.log("Build HTML error") in my code to see if the error fires and it does. I also used console.log($.html()); to see if the correct HTML is generated and it is.

my code:

fs.readFile(__dirname + '/../app/index.html', 'utf8', (err, markup) => {
    if (err) {
        console.log("grab HTML error");
        return console.log(err);
    }

    const $ = cheerio.load(markup);

    console.log($.html());
    $('head').prepend('<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">');

    fs.writeFile('../dist/index.html', $.html(), 'utf8', err => {
       if (err) {
           console.log("Build HTML error");
           return console.log(err);
       }
       console.log('index.html written to /dist'.green);
    });
});

As you can see, I have the dist directory in the correct place and the other files generated from webpack are generated and built

I'm fairly certain it has to do with your relative path. You should use the same path strategy you used for readFile :

fs.writeFile(__dirname + '/../dist/index.html', $.html(), 'utf8', err => {
