# desm

The missing one-liner utility to get the dirname from `import.meta.url`.

Requires Node 12.17.0 or Node 14.0.0.

Starting in [Node 20.11.0](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/main/doc/changelogs/CHANGELOG_V20.md#20.11.0) and [Node 21.2.0](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/main/doc/changelogs/CHANGELOG_V21.md#21.2.0) this is now built in: [`import.meta.dirname`](https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html#importmetadirname) / [`import.meta.filename`](https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html#importmetafilename)

## Install

```

npm i desm

```

## Usage

```js

import desm from 'desm'

console.log(desm(import.meta.url))

```

or

```js

import { dirname, filename, join } from 'desm'

// same as CommonJS __dirname

console.log(dirname(import.meta.url))

// same as CommonJS __filename

console.log(filename(import.meta.url))

// same as CommonJS path.join(__dirname, 'routes')

console.log(join(import.meta.url, 'routes'))

// same as CommonJS path.join(__dirname, '..', 'other')

console.log(join(import.meta.url, '..', 'other'))

```
