homedir

Return the current user's home directory.

Usage

var homedir = require( '@stdlib/os/homedir' );

homedir()

Returns the current user's home directory.

var home = homedir();
// e.g., returns '/Users/<username>'

If unable to locate a home directory, the function returns null.

Notes

• The implementation primarily checks various environment variables to locate a home directory. Note that this approach has security vulnerabilities, as attackers can tamper with environment variables.

Examples

var homedir = require( '@stdlib/os/homedir' );

console.log( homedir() );
