node-builtin-map v1.0.16
node-builtin-map
Explicitly requires all built-in node modules and puts into a single object.
You may think this is a very pointless module, and given the abundance of pointless modules on npm, I wouldn't blame you for thinking it. However, there is once very specific thing you can do with this module that requires the module to be in npm (otherwise, I would not have published it).
WZRD.IN
wzrd.in is a CDN that bundles node modules with browserify, for use in a normal web browser. This module requires the built-in node modules and provides them in a single object, meaning you can include the bundled version of this module in the browser and have access to the full node.js standard library.
Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="application/javascript" src="https://wzrd.in/bundle/node-builtin-map"></script>
<script type="application/javascript">
// This module includes a "require" function so that you can use the built-in modules just as if you were in nodejs
require = require('node-builtin-map').require;
</script>
<script type="application/javascript">
const os = require('os');
console.log(os.platform()); // prints "browser"
</script>
