how to use the pathexists function from the fs-extra library in typescript

To use the pathExists function from the fs-extra library in TypeScript, you first need to install the package using npm or yarn:

index.ts
npm install --save fs-extra
28 chars
2 lines

or

index.ts
yarn add fs-extra
18 chars
2 lines

Then, you can import the pathExists function and use it in your TypeScript code like this:

index.ts
import { pathExists } from 'fs-extra';

async function checkFileExists() {
  const exists = await pathExists('/path/to/file');

  if (exists) {
    console.log('File exists!');
  } else {
    console.log('File does not exist.');
  }
}

checkFileExists();
255 chars
14 lines

The pathExists function returns a promise that resolves to a boolean value indicating whether the path exists or not. You can use the await keyword to wait for the promise to resolve before checking the value.

Note that you need to have TypeScript installed and configured in your project in order to use it.
