Multilang Module Loader

Description

This is a utility library that helps to dynamically load modules in Node.js and works fine with TypeScript.
This library is primarily designed for configuration files, as it's a common practice to write configuration files in JavaScript or TypeScript.

Supported Formats

Format	Extension
JSON	.json
JSON5	.json5, .jsonc
YAML	.yaml, .yml
JavaScript	.js, .cjs, .mjs, .jsx
CoffeeScript	.coffee, .litcoffee
TypeScript	.ts, .cts, .mts, .tsx

For more detailed information, please refer to interpret. This library uses interpret and rechoir to load script modules.

Example

import loadModule from "multilang-module-loader";

// Construct the path to the module dynamically, e.g. by reading config files, scanning directories, making network requests, etc.
const modulePath = ...;
// Define the module type or import from somewhere. If not specified, the module will be loaded as `any`.
type ModuleType = ...;

// Load the module.
loadModule<ModuleType>(modulePath).then(module => {
	// Use the module.
	...
});

Notes

If you're running a TypeScript source file using this library with ts-node, remember to apply appropriate compilerOptions to ts-node, e.g. as a common practice, it's likely that you import this library using import syntax. It's a ESM feature, so you need to specify this file as a ESM module or pass a TSConfig file with esModuleInterop enabled to ts-node.
