realpath-native
This module is no longer necessary as all current releases of Node supports
fs.realpath.native
now.
Use the system's native
realpath
Node 9.3 added fs.realpath(Sync).native
. On older Nodes you have to use process.binding
to access the same function. This module does that check for you.
The advantage of the native realpath
over fs.realpath
is that the native one better supports paths on Windows.
On node 8 the function uses the old fs.realpath
function.
