Find if the current user is root or not

Package Exports

  • checkroot

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (checkroot) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

checkroot

Check if the current user is root or not

Install

$ npm install --save checkroot

Usage

const checkroot = require('checkroot');

// returns
//   true, if the current user is root
//   false, otherwise
console.log(checkroot());

API

First it tries to get the username from the USER and LOGNAME environment variables. In the rare case when none of these environment variables are set, it falls back to $ id -un on Linux / MacOS and $ whoami on Windows. The result is cached using mem.

checkroot()

Returns true, if the current user is root and false, otherwise.
