How to create a tmp file with extension #200

How can I create a tmp file with an extension?

bartvanandel commented 4 years ago

There is an option called postfix. E.g., this will create a file named prefix-???-postfix.txt where ??? is some random string inserted by the library:

const txtFileObj = tmp.fileSync({
    prefix: `prefix-`,
    postfix: '-postfix.txt',
});

Thanks to @bartvanandel for answering the question.
