Node.js Require Enhancer

Question

How to make an easy require instead of ../../../ ?

Answer

Use this library, and you could use simple paths relative to the application root, like java & maven

Installation

npm install jrichardsz/nodejs-require-enhancer#master --save

Usage

If you have this folder structure

├── package.json
└── src
    ├── main
    │   ├──
    │   └── org
    │       └── acme
    │           ├── context
    │           │   └── Foo.js
    │           ├── core
    │           │   ├── Bar.js
    ├── test
    │   ├──
    │   └── org
    │       └── acme
    │           ├── context
    │           │   └── FooTest.js
    │           ├── core
    │           │   ├── BarTest.js

Instead of use require('../../../../org/acme/context/Foo.js') you could use require('org/acme/context/Foo.js')

Sample

First line must be the require of enhancer and after that, you could use include instead require:

require('nodejs-require-enhancer');

After that, import your custom modules with:

const Foo = include('org/acme/context/Foo.js');

If you want to load modules inside test folder:

const Foo = include('org/acme/context/FooTest.js');

That's all!
