with the code below I can start downloading file:
var stream = fs.createWriteStream('file.zip');
request.get('http://example.com/file.zip').pipe(stream);
how can I check that file exist with superagent without downloading it?

2There is no such thing as "file" in HTTP, but you can use `HTTP HEAD` to ensure it returns `HTTP 200` back: https://visionmedia.github.io/superagent/#head-requests – zerkms Nov 15 '18 at 22:55
