> Drop-in replacement for `fs.existsSync` with zero dependencies. Other libs I found either have crucial differences from fs.existsSync, or unnecessary dependencies. See README.md for more info.
## Install
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):
```sh
$ npm install fs-exists-sync --save
```
## Usage
```js
var exists = require('fs-exists-sync');
console.log(exists('.'));
//=> true
console.log(exists(process.cwd()));
//=> true
console.log(exists('README.md'));
//=> true
console.log(exists('foo.txt'));
//=> false
console.log(exists(''));
//=> false
console.log(exists());
//=> false
```
## Why another "exists" lib?
I just want a _simple replacement for `fs.existsSync`_. Here is what I found:
- [path-exists][]: Has dependencies to support a promises API
- [fs-exists][]: async only
- [file-exists][]: returns `false` if the path exists but is a directory.
- [exists][]: nothing to do with `fs`.
