Find absolute base path of the project directory
fs, meteor, node.js
Solution
Another way to find your project's root directory now is this:
var base = process.env.PWD
Note that this is not the same as `process.cwd()`. Instead it is the directory where you ran the `meteor` command, which is typically what you are looking for. Note also that this probably won't be very helpful when running your app from a deployed bundle.
Problem
Until now we could get the absolute path of a file to open later as readStream with this code snippet: ``` var base = path.resolve('.'); var file = base + '/data/test.csv'; fs.createReadStream(file) ``` Since Meteor 0.6.5 the base path is pointing to `.meteor/local/build/programs/...` There is also the Assets API, which but can not give us back a path but only the read document. We but need a stream to process some bigger data files?
