## Usage

[Complete API Documentation.](http://master.filedirname.bevry.surge.sh/docs/)

### Without Arguments

The following works for ESM (ECMAScript Modules) and CJS (CommonJS Modules) enviroments:

```javascript
// for deno
import filedirname from 'https://unpkg.com/filedirname/edition-deno/index.ts'
// for web browsers
import filedirname from 'https://unpkg.com/filedirname'
// for node.js
import filedirname from 'filedirname'
// for commonjs
const filedirname = require('filedirname').default

// usage
const [file, dir] = filedirname()
console.log({ file, dir })
```

### Via Error

The following works for ESM (ECMAScript Modules) and CJS (CommonJS Modules) environments:

```javascript
// for deno
import filedirname from 'https://unpkg.com/filedirname/edition-deno/index.ts'
// for web browsers
import filedirname from 'https://unpkg.com/filedirname'
// for node.js
import filedirname from 'filedirname'
// for commonjs
const filedirname = require('filedirname').default

// usage
const [file, dir] = filedirname(new Error())
console.log({ file, dir })
```

### Via `import.meta.url`

The following works only for ESM (ECMAScript Modules) environments and is the quickest solution:

```javascript
// for deno
import filedirname from 'https://unpkg.com/filedirname/edition-deno/index.ts'
// for web browsers
import filedirname from 'https://unpkg.com/filedirname'
// for node.js
import filedirname from 'filedirname'

// usage
const [file, dir] = filedirname(import.meta.url)
console.log({ file, dir })
```
