Usage Examples

import { hasLeadingSlash } from 'path-slashes';

// Check if given path has a leading slash
hasLeadingSlash('/foo'); // -> true
hasLeadingSlash('foo'); // -> false

import { hasTrailingSlash } from 'path-slashes';

// Check if given path has a trailing slash
hasTrailingSlash('foo/'); // -> true
hasTrailingSlash('foo'); // -> false

import { withLeadingSlash } from 'path-slashes';

// Ensure given path has a leading slash
withLeadingSlash('foo'); // -> '/foo'

import { withTrailingSlash } from 'path-slashes';

// Ensure given path has a trailing slash
withTrailingSlash('foo'); // -> 'foo/'

import { withoutLeadingSlash } from 'path-slashes';

// Ensure given path has no leading slash
withoutLeadingSlash('/foo/'); // -> 'foo/'

import { withoutTrailingSlash } from 'path-slashes';

// Ensure given path has no trailing slash
withoutTrailingSlash('/foo/'); // -> '/foo'

import { withSlashes } from 'path-slashes';

// Ensure given path has both leading and trailing slashes
withSlashes('foo'); // -> '/foo/'

// Ensure given path has neither leading nor trailing slashes
