require-local

require-local is a tool for requiring packages from the local filesystem. Paths to be imported (via require) are defined in a javascript object. It takes an object defining the paths to import and, optionally, a string defining the format of the output. Bu default, it returns an eval-able string of require statements, one for each leaf node in the object (and with variable names matching the name of the file in the leaf node). If "array" is the second argument, it returns an array of the functions of the leaf nodes. If "object" is the second argument, it returns an object matching the input object, but with the leaf nodes as keys whose values are the imported modules.

usage

var requireLocal = require("require-local");

requireLocalConfig = {
  test: {
    localPackages: {
      a: {
        b: ["c", "d"]
      },
      e: "f",
      g: {
        h: [
          "i", {
            j: ["k", "l"]
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
};

eval requireLocal(requireLocalConfig);

output

var c = require('YOUR-APP-ROOT-PATH/test/localPackages/a/b/c');
var d = require('YOUR-APP-ROOT-PATH/test/localPackages/a/b/d');
var f = require('YOUR-APP-ROOT-PATH/test/localPackages/e/f');
var i = require('YOUR-APP-ROOT-PATH/test/localPackages/g/h/i');
var k = require('YOUR-APP-ROOT-PATH/test/localPackages/g/h/j/k');
var l = require('YOUR-APP-ROOT-PATH/test/localPackages/g/h/j/l');
