Write `data` to the given `path`, by default creating a new file if needed, else overwriting. ```ts const encoder = new TextEncoder(); const data = encoder.encode("Hello world\n"); await Deno.writeFile("hello1.txt", data); // overwrite "hello1.txt" or create it await Deno.writeFile("hello2.txt", data, { create: false }); // only works if "hello2.txt" exists await Deno.writeFile("hello3.txt", data, { mode: 0o777 }); // set permissions on new file await Deno.writeFile("hello4.txt", data, { append: true }); // add data to the end of the file ``` Requires `allow-write` permission, and `allow-read` if `options.create` is `false`.
