const find = require('{%= name %}');
find(filename, cwd, limit, callback);
Example
filename
String - (required) the name of the file to find.cwd
String - (optional) the starting directory. This value can be prefixed with~
to search from the user home directory.limit
Number - (optional) limit the number of directories to recurse.callback
Functional - (optional) A promise is returned when no callback is passed.
Promise example
// use "~" to search user home
find('foo.txt', '~/a/b/c')
.then(file => console.log(file)) //=> '/Users/jonschlinkert/foo.txt'
.catch(console.error);
With async-await
(async function() {
const file = await find('foo.txt', '~/a/b/c');
console.log(file);
//=> '/Users/jonschlinkert/foo.txt'
})();
Callback example
// find `foo.txt` starting at the given directory
find('foo.txt', 'a/b/c', function(err, file) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(file);
//=> /Users/jonschlinkert/dev/find-file-up/fixtures/foo.txt
});
find.sync(filename, cwd, limit);
Example
