I would like to check if msg.payload is a file or a directory without using the function node,
is there a node that can check this?
Please tell me!
Thanks.
You really haven’t given enough information for anyone to help you.
Where is msg.payload coming from?
What else is in the msg object?

I can only assume (due to lack of information / screen shots) that you mean "I would like to check if the string value contained in msg.payload is a file or a directory" - is that what you mean?
If so, you can use fs-ops
