methods
var parents = require('parents')
parents(dir, opts)
Return an array of the parent directories of dir
, including and starting with dir
. If a dir
isn't specified, process.cwd()
will be used.
Optionally specify an opts.platform
to control whether the separator and paths works the unixy way with '/'
or the windowsy way where sometimes things use '/'
and sometimes they use '\\'
and also there are leading drive letters and other exotic features. If opts.platform
isn't specified, process.platform
will be used. Anything that matches /^win/
will use the windowsy behavior.
install
With npm do:
