Install

Install with npm:

``sh $ npm install parse-filepath --save`

`Usage`

`js var parsePath = require('parse-filepath'); parsePath(filepath);`

This can be used as a polyfill for the native node.js path.parse() method, and it also adds a few properties:

* path: the original filepath *isAbsolute: (getter) true if the given path is absolute *absolute: (getter) fully resolved, absolute filepath *dirname: alias for dir*basename: alias for base*extname: alias for ext*stem: alias for name

Example

`js var parsePath = require('parse-filepath'); console.log(parsePath('foo/bar/baz/index.js'));`

Returns:

`js { root: '', dir: 'foo/bar/baz', base: 'index.js', ext: '.js', name: 'index',

// aliases extname: '.js', basename: 'index.js', dirname: 'foo/bar/baz', stem: 'index',

// original path path: 'foo/bar/baz/index.js',

// getters absolute: [Getter/Setter], isAbsolute: [Getter/Setter] }`
