Usage

import winPermissionsManager       from "win-permissions-js";

/**
 * Setting Access Rights on a Folder. This function is intended for
 * Windows Use only.
 * @param folderPath
 * @param rights
 * @returns {Promise<void>}
 */
export const setAccessRightsOnFolder =  ({folderPath, rights}) =>
    new Promise(resolve => {
        let currentPermissionsManager = new winPermissionsManager({folderPath});
        rights.forEach(right => {
            currentPermissionsManager.addRight(right);
        });
        currentPermissionsManager.applyRights({disableInheritance: true});
        resolve();
    });

//folderPath: current folder Path
let currentPermissionsManager = new winPermissionsManager({folderPath});

//domain: user or group domain
//name: user- or group- name
//accessString: Access Mask as String
//isUser: user or group account?
//propagate: Should propagate Rights or not (CI)(OI) vs. (NP)
currentPermissionsManager.addRight({domain, name, accessString, isUser, propagate});

//applying new Permissions (SET) on folder
//disabling Inheritance if desired with parameter disableInheritance:true
currentPermissionsManager.applyRights({disableInheritance:true});

//you should be careful with applyRights and disableInheritance:true! You could end up resetting the Folder Rights

Access Mask as comma separated String
