### untildify
|
||||
|
||||
Converts a tilde path to an absolute path.
|
||||
|
||||
Use `String.replace()` with a regular expression and `OS.homedir()` to replace the `~` in the start of the path with the home directory.
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
const untildify = str => str.replace(/^~($|\/|\\)/, `${require('os').homedir()}$1`);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
untildify('~/node') // '/Users/aUser/node'
|
||||
```
