Question

In my current codes, it does only can read a text file, How can I make an Image (base64) file opened with Photos Application (Windows)? Is there any chance to do that? If it's impossible, please let me know!

const fs = require('fs')

fs.readFile('./Test/a.txt', 'utf8' , (err, data) => {
    if (err) {
      console.error(err)
      return
    }
    console.log(data)
    return
})

Another possible solution is like this:

const cp = require('child_process');

const imageFilePath = '/aaa/bbb/ccc'

const c = cp.spawn('a_program_that_opens_images', [ `"${imageFilePath}"` ]);  


c.stdout.pipe(process.stdout);  
c.stderr.pipe(process.stderr);


c.once('exit', exitCode => { 

   // child process has exited

});
