is-absolute    

> Returns true if a file path is absolute. Does not rely on the path module and can be used as a polyfill for node.js native path.isAbolute.

Install

Install with npm:

``sh
$ npm install --save is-absolute
`

Originally based on the isAbsolute utility method in express.

Usage

`js
var isAbsolute = require('is-absolute');

isAbsolute('a/b/c.js');
//=> 'false'
isAbsolute('/a/b/c.js');
//=> 'true'
`

Explicitly test windows paths

`js
isAbsolute.posix('/foo/bar');
isAbsolute.posix('/user/docs/Letter.txt');
//=> true

isAbsolute.posix('foo/bar');
//=> false
`

Explicitly test windows paths

`js
var isAbsolute = require('is-absolute');

isAbsolute.win32('c:\\');

isAbsolute.win32('\\\\unc\\share');
isAbsolute.win32('\\\\unc\\share\\foo');
isAbsolute.win32('\\\\unc\\share\\foo\\');
isAbsolute.win32('\\\\unc\\share\\foo\\bar');
isAbsolute.win32('\\\\unc\\share\\foo\\bar\\');
isAbsolute.win32('\\\\unc\\share\\foo\\bar\\baz');
