{{alias}}( path[, options], predicate, clbk )
Asynchronously resolves a path according to a predicate function by walking
parent directories.
When invoked, the predicate function is provided two arguments:
- `path`: a resolved path
- `next`: a callback to be invoked after processing a resolved path
The `next` callback takes two arguments:
- `error`: error argument
- `result`: test result
If a provided predicate function calls the `next` callback with a truthy
`error` argument, the function suspends execution and immediately calls the
`done` callback for subsequent `error` handling.
The function immediately returns upon encountering a non-falsy `result`
value and calls the `done` callback with `null` as the first argument and
the resolved path as the second argument.
If unable to resolve a path, the function returns `null` as the path result.
Execution is *not* guaranteed to be asynchronous. To guarantee asynchrony,
wrap the `done` callback in a function which either executes at the end of
the current stack (e.g., `nextTick`) or during a subsequent turn of the
event loop (e.g., `setImmediate`, `setTimeout`).
Parameters
----------
path: string
Path to resolve.
options: Object (optional)
Options.
options.dir: string (optional)
Base directory from which to search. Default: current working directory.
predicate: Function
The test function to invoke for each resolved path.
clbk: Function
Callback to invoke after resolving a path.
Examples
--------
> function predicate( path, next ) {
... setTimeout( onTimeout, path );
... function onTimeout() {
... console.log( path );
... next( null, false );
... }
... };
> function onPath( error, path ) {
... if ( error ) {
... console.error( error.message );
... } else {
... console.log( path );
... }
... };
> {{alias}}( 'package.json', predicate, onPath );
{{alias}}.sync( path[, options], predicate )
Synchronously resolves a path according to a predicate function by walking
parent directories.
The predicate function is provided one argument:
- `path`: a resolved path
The function immediately returns upon encountering a truthy return value.
If unable to resolve a path, the function returns `null` as the path result.
Parameters
----------
path: string
Path to resolve.
options: Object (optional)
Options.
options.dir: string (optional)
Base directory from which to search. Default: current working directory.
predicate: Function
The test function to invoke for each resolved path.
Returns
-------
out: string|null
Resolved path.
Examples
--------
> function predicate() { return false; };
> var out = {{alias}}.sync( 'package.json', predicate );
