  • fs - All File System

  • fs.read - File System read operations

  • fs.write - File System write operations

  • child - Child process spawning operations

  • worker - Worker thread spawning operation

// Check if the process has permission to read the README file
process.permission.has('fs.read', './README.md');
// Check if the process has read permission operations
process.permission.has('fs.read');
