path-dirname

path-dirname

Node.js path.dirname() ponyfill

This was needed in order to expose path.posix.dirname() on Node.js v0.10

Install

$ npm install --save path-dirname

Usage

const pathDirname = require('path-dirname');

pathDirname('/home/foo');
//=> '/home'
pathDirname('C:\\Users\\foo');
//=> 'C:\\Users'
pathDirname('foo');
//=> '.'
pathDirname('foo/bar');
//=> 'foo'

//Using posix version for consistent output when dealing with glob escape chars
pathDirname.win32('C:\\Users\\foo/\\*bar');
//=> 'C:\\Users\\foo/'
pathDirname.posix('C:\\Users\\foo/\\*bar');
//=> 'C:\\Users\\foo'
