# is-subdir > Return whether a directory is a subdirectory of another directory [![npm version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/is-subdir.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/is-subdir) Cross-platform. Works correctly on Windows, where directory paths can start with disk drive letters in different casings. Like `c:\foo` and `C:\foo\bar`. Returns `true` when the directories match. The `isSubdir.strict()` variant only returns true if the second parameter is a strict subdir of the first and not the same. ## Installation ```sh add is-subdir ``` ## Usage ```js 'use strict' const path = require('path') const isSubdir = require('is-subdir') console.log(isSubdir(process.cwd(), path.resolve('node_modules'))) //> true console.log(isSubdir.strict('node_modules/tape', '../tape')) //> false ``` ## API ### `isSubdir(parentDir, subdir): boolean` ### `isSubdir.strict(parentDir, subdir): boolean` ## License [MIT](./LICENSE) © [Zoltan Kochan](https://www.kochan.io)
