								> A tiny (183B to 210B) and [fast](#benchmarks) utility to ascend parent directories
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								With [escalade](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escalade), you can scale parent directories until you've found what you're looking for.<br>Given an input file or directory, `escalade` will continue executing your callback function until either:
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								1) the callback returns a truthy value
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								2) `escalade` has reached the system root directory (eg, `/`)
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								> **Important:**<br>Please note that `escalade` only deals with direct ancestry – it will not dive into parents' sibling directories.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								---
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								**Notice:** As of v3.1.0, `escalade` now includes [Deno support](http://deno.land/x/escalade)! Please see [Deno Usage](#deno) below.
							 | 
						||
|

							 | 
						||
|

							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								## Install
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								$ npm install --save escalade
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								## Modes
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								There are two "versions" of `escalade` available:
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#### "async"
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								> **Node.js:** >= 8.x<br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								> **Size (gzip):** 210 bytes<br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								> **Availability:** [CommonJS](https://unpkg.com/escalade/dist/index.js), [ES Module](https://unpkg.com/escalade/dist/index.mjs)
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								This is the primary/default mode. It makes use of `async`/`await` and [`util.promisify`](https://nodejs.org/api/util.html#util_util_promisify_original).
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#### "sync"
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								> **Node.js:** >= 6.x<br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								> **Size (gzip):** 183 bytes<br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								> **Availability:** [CommonJS](https://unpkg.com/escalade/sync/index.js), [ES Module](https://unpkg.com/escalade/sync/index.mjs)
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								This is the opt-in mode, ideal for scenarios where `async` usage cannot be supported.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 |

								> **Note:** To run the above example with "sync" mode, import from `escalade/sync` and remove the `await` keyword.

								## API
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								### escalade(input, callback)
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								Returns: `string|void` or `Promise<string|void>`
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								When your `callback` locates a file, `escalade` will resolve/return with an absolute path.<br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								If your `callback` was never satisfied, then `escalade` will resolve/return with nothing (undefined).
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								> **Important:**<br>The `sync` and `async` versions share the same API.<br>The **only** difference is that `sync` is not Promise-based.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#### input
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								Type: `string`
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								The path from which to start ascending.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								This may be a file or a directory path.<br>However, when `input` is a file, `escalade` will begin with its parent directory.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								> **Important:** Unless given an absolute path, `input` will be resolved from `process.cwd()` location.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#### callback
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								Type: `Function`
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								The callback to execute for each ancestry level. It always is given two arguments:
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								1) `dir` - an absolute path of the current parent directory
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								2) `names` - a list (`string[]`) of contents _relative to_ the `dir` parent
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								> **Note:** The `names` list can contain names of files _and_ directories.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								When your callback returns a _falsey_ value, then `escalade` will continue with `dir`'s parent directory, re-invoking your callback with new argument values.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								When your callback returns a string, then `escalade` stops iteration immediately.<br>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								If the string is an absolute path, then it's left as is. Otherwise, the string is resolved into an absolute path _from_ the `dir` that housed the satisfying condition.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								> **Important:** Your `callback` can be a `Promise/AsyncFunction` when using the "async" version of `escalade`.
