Find absolute base path of the project directory

Question

Until now we could get the absolute path of a file to open later as readStream with this code snippet:

var base = path.resolve(\'.\');
var file = base + \'/d         


        

Answer 1

As of Meteor 1.2.1, this works for me:

var absoluteBasePath = path.resolve('../../../../../.');

The same result using split:

var absoluteBasePath = path.resolve('.').split(path.sep + '.meteor')[0];

Using process.cwd():

var absoluteBasePath = path.resolve(process.cwd(), '../../../../../');
var absoluteBasePath = path.resolve(process.cwd()).split(path.sep + '.meteor')[0];
