PlatformPath

The platform-specific file delimiter. ';' or ':'.

Posix specific pathing. Same as parent object on posix.

The platform-specific file separator. '\\' or '/'.

Windows specific pathing. Same as parent object on windows

Return the last portion of a path. Similar to the Unix basename command. Often used to extract the file name from a fully qualified path.

Return the directory name of a path. Similar to the Unix dirname command.

Return the extension of the path, from the last '.' to end of string in the last portion of the path. If there is no '.' in the last portion of the path or the first character of it is '.', then it returns an empty string.

Returns a path string from an object - the opposite of parse().

Determines whether {path} is an absolute path. An absolute path will always resolve to the same location, regardless of the working directory.

Join all arguments together and normalize the resulting path.

The path.matchesGlob() method determines if path matches the pattern.

Normalize a string path, reducing '..' and '.' parts. When multiple slashes are found, they're replaced by a single one; when the path contains a trailing slash, it is preserved. On Windows backslashes are used. If the path is a zero-length string, '.' is returned, representing the current working directory.

Returns an object from a path string - the opposite of format().

Solve the relative path from {from} to {to} based on the current working directory. At times we have two absolute paths, and we need to derive the relative path from one to the other. This is actually the reverse transform of path.resolve.

The right-most parameter is considered {to}. Other parameters are considered an array of {from}.

On Windows systems only, returns an equivalent namespace-prefixed path for the given path. If path is not a string, path will be returned without modifications. This method is meaningful only on Windows system. On POSIX systems, the method is non-operational and always returns path without modifications.
