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'
|
|
```
