Phonegap: Create a file in a specific folder

Question

My aim is to create a folder like "/sdcard/files/excel/" or "/sdcard/files/pdf/". The part after sdcard comes from an url("/files/excel"). So first I want to check whether "/files/excel" exists, then create a file if it does not also exist. The name comes from url called "localFileName".

In this case folder="files/excel" and localFileName="Sheet1.html".

After the fs.root.getDirectory line I got Error 12 called FileError.PATH_EXISTS_ERR but there is no folder or file in sdcard.

window.requestFileSystem(LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, 0, function(fs) {
  var folder = file_path.substring(0,file_path.lastIndexOf('/'));
  console.log(folder);
  fs.root.getDirectory(folder,{create: true, exclusive: false},function (datadir) {
    console.log(folder);
    datadir.getFile(localFileName, {create: true, exclusive: false},function(fileEntry) {
      var ft = new FileTransfer();
      yol = "/sdcard/"+folder+localFileName;
      ft.download( remoteFile,yol,function(entry) {
        console.log(entry.fullPath);
      }, fail);
    }, fail);
  }, fail);
}, fail);

There is a simple file manager for cordova-phoengap:

You can recursively create directories:

//CREATE A DIRECTORY RECURSIVELY

new DirManager().create_r('folder_a/folder_b',Log('created successfully'));
