upath 1.2.0

uPath is a reputable npm package that garners immense popularity for its nodejs path proxy feature. This fantastic utility seamlessly replaces the Windows backslash (\) with the universally accepted Unix slash (/) in all string parameters and results. Additionally, it supports UNC paths and introduces new method capabilities that can normalize and join, maintain a leading ./, and add, trim, modify, default, and remove file extensions.

To leverage the impressive functionality of uPath, you initiate with its installation via npm. You can use the following command in your terminal: npm install upath. Once installed, you may import it into your JavaScript file and employ its methods according to your requirements.

Below is a brief demonstration of how to use some of uPath's main methods:

var upath = require('upath');

var newPath = upath.normalize('c:\\windows\\nodejs\\path');
console.log(newPath); 
// Expected output: 'c:/windows/nodejs/path'

var joinedPath = upath.join('some\\windows\\only', '..\\path');
console.log(joinedPath); 
// Expected output: 'some/windows/path'

var parsedPath = upath.parse('c:\Windows\Directory\somefile.ext');
console.log(parsedPath); 
// Expected output: { root: '', dir: 'c:/Windows/Directory', base: 'somefile.ext', ext: '.ext', name: 'somefile' }

var fileWithNewExt = upath.addExt('myfile/addExt', 'txt');
console.log(fileWithNewExt); 
// Expected output: 'myfile/addExt.txt'
