| # pathExists(file[, callback])
 | |
| 
 | |
| Test whether or not the given path exists by checking with the file system. Like [`fs.exists`](https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html#fs_fs_exists_path_callback), but with a normal callback signature (err, exists). Uses `fs.access` under the hood.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - `file` `<String>`
 | |
| - `callback` `<Function>`
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Example:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const fs = require('fs-extra')
 | |
| 
 | |
| const file = '/tmp/this/path/does/not/exist/file.txt'
 | |
| // Promise usage:
 | |
| fs.pathExists(file)
 | |
|   .then(exists => console.log(exists)) // => false
 | |
| // Callback usage:
 | |
| fs.pathExists(file, (err, exists) => {
 | |
|   console.log(err) // => null
 | |
|   console.log(exists) // => false
 | |
| })
 | |
| ```
