# global-dirs [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/global-dirs.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/global-dirs)

> Get the directory of globally installed packages and binaries

Uses the same resolution logic as `npm` and `yarn`.


## Install

```
$ npm install global-dirs
```


## Usage

```js
const globalDirs = require('global-dirs');

console.log(globalDirs.npm.prefix);
//=> '/usr/local'

console.log(globalDirs.npm.packages);
//=> '/usr/local/lib/node_modules'

console.log(globalDirs.npm.binaries);
//=> '/usr/local/bin'

console.log(globalDirs.yarn.packages);
//=> '/Users/sindresorhus/.config/yarn/global/node_modules'
```


## API
