|
|---|
| 2 |
|
|---|
| 3 | Minimal module to check if a file is executable, and a normal file.
|
|---|
| 4 |
|
|---|
| 5 | Uses `fs.stat` and tests against the `PATHEXT` environment variable on
|
|---|
| 6 | Windows.
|
|---|
| 7 |
|
|---|
| 8 | ## USAGE
|
|---|
| 9 |
|
|---|
| 10 | ```javascript
|
|---|
| 11 | var isexe = require('isexe')
|
|---|
| 12 | isexe('some-file-name', function (err, isExe) {
|
|---|
| 13 | if (err) {
|
|---|
| 14 | console.error('probably file does not exist or something', err)
|
|---|
| 15 | } else if (isExe) {
|
|---|
| 16 | console.error('this thing can be run')
|
|---|
| 17 | } else {
|
|---|
| 18 | console.error('cannot be run')
|
|---|
| 19 | }
|
|---|
| 20 | })
|
|---|
| 21 |
|
|---|
| 22 | // same thing but synchronous, throws errors
|
|---|
| 23 | var isExe = isexe.sync('some-file-name')
|
|---|
| 24 |
|
|---|
| 25 | // treat errors as just "not executable"
|
|---|
| 26 | isexe('maybe-missing-file', { ignoreErrors: true }, callback)
|
|---|
| 27 | var isExe = isexe.sync('maybe-missing-file', { ignoreErrors: true })
|
|---|
| 28 | ```
|
|---|
| 29 |
|
|---|
| 30 | ## API
|
|---|
| 31 |
|
|---|
| 32 | ### `isexe(path, [options], [callback])`
|
|---|
| 33 |
|
|---|
| 34 | Check if the path is executable. If no callback provided, and a
|
|---|
| 35 | global `Promise` object is available, then a Promise will be returned.
|
|---|
| 36 |
|
|---|
| 37 | Will raise whatever errors may be raised by `fs.stat`, unless
|
|---|
| 38 | `options.ignoreErrors` is set to true.
|
|---|
| 39 |
|
|---|
| 40 | ### `isexe.sync(path, [options])`
|
|---|
| 41 |
|
|---|
| 42 | Same as `isexe` but returns the value and throws any errors raised.
|
|---|
| 43 |
|
|---|
| 44 | ### Options
|
|---|
| 45 |
|
|---|
| 46 | * `ignoreErrors` Treat all errors as "no, this is not executable", but
|
|---|
| 47 | don't raise them.
|
|---|
| 48 | * `uid` Number to use as the user id
|
|---|
| 49 | * `gid` Number to use as the group id
|
|---|
| 50 | * `pathExt` List of path extensions to use instead of `PATHEXT`
|
|---|
| 51 | environment variable on Windows.
