- ### Install
-
- ```shell
- npm install --save detect-node
- ```
-
- ### Usage:
-
- ```js
- var isNode = require('detect-node');
-
- if (isNode) {
- console.log("Running under Node.JS");
- } else {
- alert("Hello from browser (or whatever not-a-node env)");
- }
- ```
-
- The check is performed as:
- ```js
- module.exports = false;
-
- // Only Node.JS has a process variable that is of [[Class]] process
- try {
- module.exports = Object.prototype.toString.call(global.process) === '[object process]'
- } catch(e) {}
-
- ```
-
- Thanks to Ingvar Stepanyan for the initial idea. This check is both **the most reliable I could find** and it does not use `process` env directly, which would cause browserify to include it into the build.
