fs-exists-async

fs-exists-async

fs-exists-async is a lightweight utility that allows you to check if a file or directory exists asynchronously using Node.js' native fs.promises module.

It's easy to use, has no external dependencies, and returns true if the path exists and false if it doesn't.

Installation

You can install fs-exists-async via npm, yarn or pnpm:

npm install fs-exists-async
# or
yarn add fs-exists-async
# or
pnpm add fs-exists-async

Usage

To check if a file or directory exists, import the exists function and use it as follows:

import { exists } from 'fs-exists-async';

// Check if a file exists
const filePath = './example.txt';
const fileExists = await exists(filePath);
console.log(`File exists: ${fileExists}`);

// Check if a directory exists
const directoryPath = './example-directory';
const directoryExists = await exists(directoryPath);
console.log(`Directory exists: ${directoryExists}`);
