# isRelativePath > Test if a value is a relative path.
## Usage ```javascript var isRelativePath = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-relative-path' ); ``` #### isRelativePath( value ) Tests if a `value` is a relative path. ```javascript var IS_WINDOWS = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-windows' ); var bool; if ( IS_WINDOWS ) { bool = isRelativePath( 'foo\\bar\\baz' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath( 'C:\\foo\\..\\bar\\baz' ); // returns false } else { bool = isRelativePath( './foo/bar/baz' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath( '/foo/../bar/baz' ); // returns false } ``` #### isRelativePath.posix( value ) Tests if a `value` is a POSIX relative path. ```javascript var bool = isRelativePath.posix( './foo/bar/baz' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath.posix( '/foo/../bar/baz' ); // returns false ``` #### isRelativePath.win32( value ) Tests if a `value` is a Windows relative path. ```javascript var bool = isRelativePath.win32( 'foo\\bar\\baz' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath.win32( 'C:\\foo\\..\\bar\\baz' ); // returns false ```
## Notes - `isRelativePath()` is platform-specific. On Windows platforms, the function is equal to `isRelativePath.win32()`. On POSIX platforms, the function is equal to `isRelativePath.posix()`.
## Examples ```javascript var isRelativePath = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-relative-path' ); var bool = isRelativePath.posix( 'foo/' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath.posix( 'foo' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath.posix( '.' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath.posix( '' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath.posix( '/foo/bar/baz' ); // returns false bool = isRelativePath.posix( '/foo/..' ); // returns false bool = isRelativePath.win32( 'foo\\bar\\baz' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath.win32( 'foo/bar/baz' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath.win32( 'foo/..' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath.win32( '.' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath.win32( '' ); // returns true bool = isRelativePath.win32( 'C:\\foo\\bar\\baz' ); // returns false bool = isRelativePath.win32( '//server' ); // returns false bool = isRelativePath.win32( '\\\\server' ); // returns false bool = isRelativePath.win32( 'C:/foo/bar/baz' ); // returns false bool = isRelativePath.win32( '/foo/..' ); // returns false ```
