pRequire

pRequire is a small abstraction to the require statement.

Usage

Add the following statement to your app's entry point.

require('prequire')(__dirname)

This will create a GLOBAL reference to pRequire, which allows you to require modules defined in your package.json relative to your project root not located in node_modules.

You then define keys in your package.json that reference modules relative to the root folder.

Example package.json

"localDependencies": {
  "base": "test/base",
  "libIndex": "test/lib",
  "libOther": "test/lib/other"
}

Note: libIndex is referencing a folder that contains index.js. It works just like require('./test/lib');.

Example of pRequire statement

require('./index')(__dirname);

var base = pRequire('base');

var libIndex = pRequire('libIndex');

var libOther = pRequire('libOther');

console.log(base, libIndex, libOther);

You can run node test.js to see pRequire in action.
