**Deprecated:** This is not needed anymore. `require('os').tmpdir()` in Node.js 4 and up is good.

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

> Node.js [`os.tmpdir()`](https://nodejs.org/api/os.html#os_os_tmpdir) [ponyfill](https://ponyfill.com)

Use this instead of `require('os').tmpdir()` to get a consistent behavior on different Node.js versions (even 0.8).


## Install

```
$ npm install --save os-tmpdir
```


## Usage

```js
const osTmpdir = require('os-tmpdir');

osTmpdir();
//=> '/var/folders/m3/5574nnhn0yj488ccryqr7tc80000gn/T'
```


## API

See the [`os.tmpdir()` docs](https://nodejs.org/api/os.html#os_os_tmpdir).
