Usage
Lib
Import
const jsDependencyExtractor = require('js-dependency-extractor');
js-dependency-extractor module exports a function named jsDependencyExtractor
.
-
jsDependencyExtractor
<AsyncFunction>.
jsDependencyExtractor(options)
Extract JavaScript and TypeScript dependencies from a directory or a file.
Note:
- support recursive extracting;
- support scoped dependencies;
- can merge partial requires/imports into one same dependency;
- can ignore specified paths;
- can target specific file extensions.
-
options
<Object>-
path
<String> Path to directory or file. Could be absolute or relative. Default:none
Required:true
-
ignorePaths
<Array> Paths to ignore. Could be absolute, relative or a pattern. Default:none
Required:false
-
mergePartial
<Boolean> Whether to merge partial requires/imports into one same dependency. Default:false
Required:false
-
onlyExtensions
<Array> File extensions to watch for. Empty list or null values mean to look up into all file extensions. Default:none
Required:false
-
- Returns: <Array> Alphabetically ordered list of dependencies (empty array if no dependency found)
Example:
// my-project/app/index.ts
import path from 'path';
import memwatch from '@airbnb/node-memwatch';
import partial from '@scope/example-lib/partial';
import uuidv1 from 'uuid/v1';
import uuidv4 from 'uuid/v4';
import helpers from './helpers';
// ...
// my-project/app/helpers/index.js
const path = require('path');
const partial = require('@scope/example-lib/partial');
const sharp = require('sharp');
// ...
// my-project/test/helpers/index.js
const chai = require('chai');
const helpers = require('../app/helpers');
// ...
// example 1
try {
const dependencies = await jsDependencyExtractor({
ignorePaths: ['node_modules'],
mergePartial: false,
onlyExtensions: ['.ts'],
path: '../../my-project',
});
console.log(dependencies);
// [
// '@airbnb/node-memwatch',
// '@scope/example-lib/partial',
// 'path',
// 'uuid/v1',
// 'uuid/v4'
// ]
} catch (e) {
console.error(e);
}
// example 2
try {
const dependencies = await jsDependencyExtractor({
ignorePaths: ['my-project/test', 'node_modules'],
mergePartial: true,
onlyExtensions: ['.js', '.ts'],
path: '../../my-project',
});
console.log(dependencies);
// [
// '@airbnb/node-memwatch',
// '@scope/example-lib',
// 'path',
// 'sharp',
// 'uuid'
// ]
} catch (e) {
console.error(e);
}
CLI
Extract JavaScript and TypeScript dependencies from a directory or a file using the command line interface.
See jsDependencyExtractor(options) for more details.
Command name
jsde
Options
-
-p, --path <path>
Path to directory or file. Could be absolute or relative. Default:none
Required:true
-
-d, --debug
Output extra debugging. Default:false
Required:false
-
-e, --only-extensions [onlyExtensions...]
File extensions to watch for separated by a white space. Empty list or null values mean to look up into all file extensions. Default:none
Required:false
-
-i, --ignore-paths [ignorePaths...]
Paths to ignore separated by a white space. Could be absolute, relative or a pattern. Default:none

Whether to merge partial requires/imports into one same dependency. Default:false
Required:false
-
-v, --version
Output the current version. Default:none
Required:false
Alphabetically ordered list of dependencies on stdout.
Example
