slash

Convert Windows backslash paths to slash paths: foo\\bar ➔ foo/bar

Forward-slash paths can be used in Windows as long as they're not extended-length paths and don't contain any non-ascii characters.

This was created since the path methods in Node.js outputs \\ paths on Windows.

Install

$ npm install slash

Usage

const path = require('path');
const slash = require('slash');

const string = path.join('foo', 'bar');
// Unix    => foo/bar
// Windows => foo\\bar

slash(string);
// Unix    => foo/bar
// Windows => foo/bar

API

Type: string
