Node.js os.homedir polyfill for older versions of node.js.

Please consider following this project's author, Brian Woodward, and consider starring the project to show your :heart: and support.

Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install --save homedir-polyfill

Usage

var homedir = require('homedir-polyfill');
console.log(homedir());
//=> /Users/doowb

Reasoning

This library is a polyfill for the node.js os.homedir method found in modern versions of node.js.

This implementation tries to follow the implementation found in libuv by finding the current user using the process.geteuid() method and the /etc/passwd file. This should usually work in a linux environment, but will also fallback to looking at user specific environment variables to build the user's home directory if neccessary.

Since /etc/passwd is not available on windows platforms, this implementation will use environment variables to find the home directory.

In modern versions of node.js, os.homedir is used.
