require-under

Simple module to allow registration of namespaces to make your require statements easier to understand. The code itself is tiny, it's just on npm to satisfy a need I can't seem to find in existing packages (whilst keeping things simple).

Installation

This module is on npm, so feel free to grab from there:

$ npm i require-under

Examples

// require the library module
var under = require('require-under');

// create a new require function
var requireUnder = under.wrap({
  src: process.cwd() + '/src'
});

// require normal modules
requireUnder('some-module');

// require something in /src
requireUnder('src', 'my-module.js');

// optional: assign to the global require
global.require = requireUnder;

Notes

Some people hate doing this (which is fair enough), but I find that it provides an easy abstraction which allows you to move files around any only change paths in a single place. If you don't like it, don't use it :)
