esrequire
This module extend node.js original require method to enable you require multiple module in one single call. Use with es6 destructuring you can require modules in a very concise way, utilize features like es6 module.
Install
$ npm install esrequire --save
Require it in you apps first line
require('esrequire');
// same as native node require
require('express');
// pass multi module name like this, result will be an object
var modulesObject = require('express co koa');
// pass an module name array, result is an array of module in the same order
var modulesArray = require(['express', 'co', 'koa']);
This seems not a big deal, but if you use it with ES6 desctructuring, it will be very awesome
// require multiple module in one line
let {express, co, koa} = require('express co koa');
let [express, co, koa] = require(['express', 'co', 'koa']);
// rename module
let {'body-parser': bodyParser} = require('body-parser');
let [bodyParser] = require(['body-parser']);
// only require what you need
let {Router} = require('express');
Note: to learn destructuring check here
This module also has export an object esRequire

// require all the files in one folder.
