The recommended way to conditionally detect when code is being executed with bun
is to check for the existence of the Bun
global.
This is similar to how you'd check for the existence of the window
variable to detect when code is being executed in a browser.
if (typeof Bun !== "undefined") {
// this code will only run when the file is run with Bun
}
In TypeScript environments, the previous approach will result in a type error unless bun-types
is globally installed. To avoid this, you can check process.versions
instead.
if (process.versions.bun) {
// this code will only run when the file is run with Bun
}
