This PR adds
existsSyncEx
andcommandExistsSync
functions to support accepting a command, file, or symlink as runtime paths. This fixes the issue whereexistsSync
returns "false" in the case of a symlink pointing to the WindowsApps restricted folder.commandExistsSync
requires the packagecommand-exists
, this has been added to package.jsonexistsSyncEx
useslstatSync
to check whether a file or symlink exists by checking for the ENOENT error.lstatSync
is used instead ofstatSync
because the latter fails with a "permission denied" error in cases of a symlink pointing to a restricted permission file.For example, if AHK Microsoft Store edition is installed,
commandExistsSync
permitsAutoHotkey
command to be used instead of a full path, andexistsSyncEx
permits the symlinkC:/Users/CURRENTUSER/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps/AutoHotkey.exe
which previously failed.
