exists-patch

A two-way patch for Node.js' (fs/path).exists(Sync) functions.

Note: This patch is intended to be a temporary solution until everyone can get up-to-date on this change. It is not meant as a permanent fix so you can ignore the problem. Please update your code...

Install

$ npm install exists-patch

Usage

var patch = require('exists-patch');
 
// Coding for a new version (>=0.8) of Node?
// Bring older versions up-to-date to be backward compatable.
patch.patchForward();
fs.exists(...);
 
// Using a module that isn't up-to-date yet?
// Use the patch to avoid those annoying warning messages or losing
// support when path.exists is removed completely.
patch.patchBackward();
path.exists(...);
 
// Just want to be thorough without worrying about the specific use-cases?
// Patch both ways!
patch.patch();
