xdg-basedir 
Get XDG Base Directory paths
Install
$ npm install --save xdg-basedir
Usage
const xdgBasedir = require('xdg-basedir');
xdgBasedir.data;
//=> '/home/sindresorhus/.local/share'
xdgBasedir.config;
//=> '/home/sindresorhus/.config'
xdgBasedir.dataDirs
//=> ['/home/sindresorhus/.local/share', '/usr/local/share/', '/usr/share/']
API
The properties .data, .config, .cache, .runtime will return null in the uncommon case that both the XDG environment variable is not set and the users home directory can't be found. You need to handle this case. A common solution is to fall back to a temp directory.
.data
Directory for user specific data files.
.config
Directory for user specific configuration files.
.cache
Directory for user specific non-essential data files.
.runtime
Directory for user-specific non-essential runtime files and other file objects (such as sockets, named pipes, etc).
.dataDirs
Preference-ordered array of base directories to search for data files in addition to .data.
.configDirs
Preference-ordered array of base directories to search for configuration files in addition to .config.
