IDBMutableFile
Deprecated: This feature is no longer recommended. Though some browsers might still support it, it may have already been removed from the relevant web standards, may be in the process of being dropped, or may only be kept for compatibility purposes. Avoid using it, and update existing code if possible; see the compatibility table at the bottom of this page to guide your decision. Be aware that this feature may cease to work at any time.
Note: The three non-standard interfaces IDBMutableFile, IDBFileHandle, and IDBFileRequest are disabled by default.
Consider using the File and Directory Entries API instead.
The IDBMutableFile interface provides access in read or write mode to a file, dealing with all the necessary locks.
As IDBMutableFile objects are bound to a fake file system built using IndexedDB, such an object is created using the IDBDatabase.createMutableFile() method.

The name of the handled file.
IDBMutableFile.typeRead only-
