getDirname

Type : function

This function, getDirname, is used to derive the __dirname variable in an ES module context. It takes the import.meta.url of the module as input and returns the directory name of the file path. This utility is necessary because ES modules do not have access to the __dirname variable that is available in CommonJS modules.

Usage

import { getDirname } from '@mustib/utils/node';
const __dirname = getDirname(import.meta.url);

Definition

export function getDirname(url: string): string {}
  • parameters:
    1. url: string
      • The import.meta.url of the module
  • returns: string
    • The directory name of the file path
