<p>{{APIRef("File System API")}}{{Non-standard_header}}</p>
<p>The <code>FileSystemDirectoryReader</code> interface of the <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/API/File_and_Directory_Entries_API">File and Directory Entries API</a> lets you access the {{domxref("FileEntry")}}-based objects (generally {{domxref("FileSystemFileEntry")}} or {{domxref("FileSystemDirectoryEntry")}}) representing each entry in a directory.</p>
<div class="note">
<p>Because this is a non-standard API, whose specification is not currently on a standards track, it's important to keep in mind that not all browsers implement it, and those that do may implement only small portions of it. Check the {{anch("Browser compatibility")}} section for details.</p>
</div>
<h2 id="Methods">Methods</h2>
<dl>
<dt>{{domxref("FileSystemDirectoryReader.readEntries", "readEntries()")}}</dt>
<dd>Returns a an array containing some number of the directory's entries. Each item in the array is an object based on {{domxref("FileSystemEntry")}}—typically either {{domxref("FileSystemFileEntry")}} or {{domxref("FileSystemDirectoryEntry")}}.</dd>
