type_or_false = LCC.web_file.exists(path, timeout?)

Parameters

  • path
    String. File or directory to check.
  • timeout
    Number, optional. Request timeout in seconds, default 60.

Returns

  • type_or_false
    String or boolean. Returns "file" or "directory" when present, otherwise false.
