Resolve path or paths by module parent path

Useful when you want to resolve your path or array of paths by module parant path.

Install

$ npm install path-resolve-by-parent --save

Know more

Assume that we have a sub directory named sample-directory and a module named child-module into /home/hastijs directory. There is another module named parent-module and a sub-directory named another-sample-directory into sample-directory.

/home/hastijs/
|_ child-module.js
|_ sample/
   |_ another-sample-directory/
   |_ parent-module.js

As module names show, child-module is child of (required in) parent-module.

Now we run parent-module while path-resolve-by-parent called into child-module.

// child-module.js
console.log(require('path-resolve-by-parent')('another-sample-directory'));

The result is:

//=> /home/hastijs/sample-directory/another-sample-directory

Usage

In example bellow, parent-module executed.

Resolve paths by module parent path

// child-module.js (path: /home/hastijs/child-module.js)
const pathResolveByParent = require('path-resolve-by-parent');
console.log(pathResolveByParent(['..', 'another-sample-directory']));

// parent-module.js (path: /home/hastijs/sample-directory/parent-module.js)
require('../child-module');
//=> /home/hastijs/another-sample-directory
