# pathExists(file[, callback])
|
||
|
|
||
|
Test whether or not the given path exists by checking with the file system. Like [`fs.exists`](https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html#fs_fs_exists_path_callback), but with a normal callback signature (err, exists). Uses `fs.access` under the hood.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `file` `<String>`
|
||
|
- `callback` `<Function>`
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
const fs = require('fs-extra')
|
||
|
|
||
|
const file = '/tmp/this/path/does/not/exist/file.txt'
|
||
|
// Promise usage:
|
||
|
fs.pathExists(file)
|
||
|
.then(exists => console.log(exists)) // => false
|
||
|
// Callback usage:
|
||
|
fs.pathExists(file, (err, exists) => {
|
||
|
console.log(err) // => null
|
||
|
console.log(exists) // => false
|
||
|
})
|
||
|
```
