How do I check whether remote directory exist or not on SFtp using nodejs?

Question

I need to check whether a remote directory exists or not on sFtp connection.

I am using the condition like,

if (!sftp.Exists(remotePath))

I am using the library ssh2-sftp-client but it doesn't allow me to use the Exist methods because it doesn't have that function.

Can anybody suggest me what should I do for checking for remote directory exist or not?

Use list

sftp.list(remotePath);

It will (asynchronously) trigger an error if the file doesn't exist
