```
npm install require-spy
```

## Usage

```js
var spy = require('require-spy')
var http = require('http')

// all modules required after spy.start is called are logged
spy.start()

var fs = require('fs')

console.log(spy.check('http')) // false
console.log(spy.check('fs')) // true
```

## API

```

This will auto-start the spy.
