directory-exists Build Status

Check if a directory exists - synchronously or asynchronously

Install

$ npm install --save directory-exists

Usage:

directory should be a string of a relative or absolute path.

Asynchronous

With Callback:
const directoryExists = require('directory-exists');
 
directoryExists(directory, (error, result) => {
  console.log(result); // result is a boolean
});
With Promise:

If no callback function is supplied, directoryExists returns a promise.

const directoryExists = require('directory-exists');
 
directoryExists(directory).then(result => {
  console.log(result); // result is a boolean
});
Async/await:
const directoryExists = require('directory-exists');
 
(async function() {
  const result = await directoryExists(directory);
  console.log(result);  // result is a boolean
})();

Synchronous

const directoryExists = require('directory-exists');
 
directoryExists.sync(directory); // retuns a boolean

Why not use fs.exists?

Because asynchronous fs.exists is deprecated. Synchronous fs.existsSync is still fine to use, but this library does both sync and async.
