# isexe
Minimal module to check if a file is executable, and a normal file.
Uses `fs.stat` and tests against the `PATHEXT` environment variable on
Windows.
## USAGE
```js
import { isexe, sync } from 'isexe'
// or require() works too
// const { isexe } = require('isexe')
isexe('some-file-name').then(isExe => {
if (isExe) {
console.error('this thing can be run')
} else {
console.error('cannot be run')
}
}, (err) => {
console.error('probably file doesnt exist or something')
})
// same thing but synchronous, throws errors
isExe = sync('some-file-name')
// treat errors as just "not executable"
const isExe = await isexe('maybe-missing-file', { ignoreErrors: true })
const isExe = sync('maybe-missing-file', { ignoreErrors: true })
```
## API
### `isexe(path, [options]) => Promise<boolean>`
Check if the path is executable.
Will raise whatever errors may be raised by `fs.stat`, unless
`options.ignoreErrors` is set to true.
### `sync(path, [options]) => boolean`
Same as `isexe` but returns the value and throws any errors raised.
## Platform Specific Implementations
If for some reason you want to use the implementation for a
specific platform, you can do that.
```js
import { win32, posix } from 'isexe'
win32.isexe(...)
win32.sync(...)
// etc
// or:
import { isexe, sync } from 'isexe/posix'
```
The default exported implementation will be chosen based on
`process.platform`.
### Options
```ts
import type IsexeOptions from 'isexe'
```
* `ignoreErrors` Treat all errors as "no, this is not
executable", but don't raise them.
* `uid` Number to use as the user id on posix
* `gid` Number to use as the group id on posix
* `pathExt` List of path extensions to use instead of `PATHEXT`
environment variable on Windows.
