module-info v1.2.3

module-info

Find package.json files in module and load information from it.

Help

Unfortunately I don't have any more time to maintain this repository :-(

Don't you want to save me and this project by taking over it?

Installation

$ npm install module-info

Usage

Base option is to set base directory of module.

var Info = require('module-info');
var info = new Info('/path/to/some/module');

Find from file in module

If you have got some file somewhere in module directory tree, module-info can find information about module automatically.

var info = Info.fromFile('/path/to/some/module/and/some/file/in/it.js');

Find by name (in node_modules)

You can search for information about some module on which your module is dependent.

var info = Info.fromName(module, 'dependent-module');

Find for your module

This option is similar for example to package pkginfo.

var info = Info.self(module);

Info object

• getPackagePath(): returns path to package.json file
• getData(): returns parsed JSON data from package.json file
• getName(): returns name of module
• getPath(): returns resolved path to module
• getVersion(): returns version of module
• getMainFile(): returns resolved full path to main file (even it is not defined in package.json)
• getModuleName(string filePath, bool relative = false): returns name for file in module used in require method
• isNpmDependency(): return true if module is dependency for another module
• isFileInModule(string filePath): checks if file is in module directory (not in any dependent sub-module)
