+[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/isaacs/rimraf.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/isaacs/rimraf) [![Dependency Status](https://david-dm.org/isaacs/rimraf.svg)](https://david-dm.org/isaacs/rimraf) [![devDependency Status](https://david-dm.org/isaacs/rimraf/dev-status.svg)](https://david-dm.org/isaacs/rimraf#info=devDependencies)
+
+The [UNIX command](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rm_(Unix)) `rm -rf` for node.
+
+Install with `npm install rimraf`, or just drop rimraf.js somewhere.
+
+## API
+
+`rimraf(f, [opts], callback)`
+
+The first parameter will be interpreted as a globbing pattern for files. If you
+want to disable globbing you can do so with `opts.disableGlob` (defaults to
+`false`). This might be handy, for instance, if you have filenames that contain
+globbing wildcard characters.
+
+The callback will be called with an error if there is one. Certain
+errors are handled for you:
+
+* Windows: `EBUSY` and `ENOTEMPTY` - rimraf will back off a maximum of
+ `opts.maxBusyTries` times before giving up, adding 100ms of wait
+ between each attempt. The default `maxBusyTries` is 3.
+* `ENOENT` - If the file doesn't exist, rimraf will return
+ successfully, since your desired outcome is already the case.
+* `EMFILE` - Since `readdir` requires opening a file descriptor, it's
+ possible to hit `EMFILE` if too many file descriptors are in use.
+ In the sync case, there's nothing to be done for this. But in the
+ async case, rimraf will gradually back off with timeouts up to
+ `opts.emfileWait` ms, which defaults to 1000.
+
+## options
+
+* unlink, chmod, stat, lstat, rmdir, readdir,
+ unlinkSync, chmodSync, statSync, lstatSync, rmdirSync, readdirSync
+
+ In order to use a custom file system library, you can override
+ specific fs functions on the options object.
+
+ If any of these functions are present on the options object, then
+ the supplied function will be used instead of the default fs
+ method.
+
+ Sync methods are only relevant for `rimraf.sync()`, of course.
+
+ For example:
+
+ ```javascript
+ var myCustomFS = require('some-custom-fs')
+
+ rimraf('some-thing', myCustomFS, callback)
+ ```
+
+* maxBusyTries
+
+ If an `EBUSY`, `ENOTEMPTY`, or `EPERM` error code is encountered
+ on Windows systems, then rimraf will retry with a linear backoff
+ wait of 100ms longer on each try. The default maxBusyTries is 3.
+
+ Only relevant for async usage.
+
+* emfileWait
+
+ If an `EMFILE` error is encountered, then rimraf will retry
+ repeatedly with a linear backoff of 1ms longer on each try, until
+ the timeout counter hits this max. The default limit is 1000.
+
+ If you repeatedly encounter `EMFILE` errors, then consider using
+ [graceful-fs](http://npm.im/graceful-fs) in your program.
+
+ Only relevant for async usage.
+
+* glob
+
+ Set to `false` to disable [glob](http://npm.im/glob) pattern
+ matching.
+
+ Set to an object to pass options to the glob module. The default
+ glob options are `{ nosort: true, silent: true }`.
+
+ Glob version 6 is used in this module.
+
+ Relevant for both sync and async usage.
+
+* disableGlob
+
+ Set to any non-falsey value to disable globbing entirely.
+ (Equivalent to setting `glob: false`.)
+
+## rimraf.sync
+
+It can remove stuff synchronously, too. But that's not so good. Use
+the async API. It's better.
+
+## CLI
+
+If installed with `npm install rimraf -g` it can be used as a global
+command `rimraf <path> [<path> ...]` which is useful for cross platform support.
+
+## mkdirp
+
+If you need to create a directory recursively, check out
+[mkdirp](https://github.com/substack/node-mkdirp).
