require-thunk

Thunk dependencies by modifying require 🧙‍♂️🔁

A simple way to thunk dependencies (including local dependencies). Typescript is supported out of the box. We need this for better dry-run support in some Overlayed modules.

import thunker from './index'

// turn on thunking
thunker.enableThunking(['net', 'fs'], (target, original) => {
  if (target === 'net') {
    return { isFakeNet: true }
  } else {
    return { isFakeFs: true }
  }
})

// later on...
import('net').then(mongo => {
  // default: { isFakeNet: true, __thunked: true }
  console.log(mongo)
})

// finally, to turn it off
thunker.disableThunking()

API

Note: If you're using vanilla JS, the API methods exist off of default. For example:

const enableThunking = require('require-thunk').default.enableThunking

// use enableThunking(...)

Types

Thunk handler

(targets, exports) => { return {someKey: 'someValue' } }

The thunk handler callback signature.

• target the target being thunked. String.
• exports the value being provided for the thunk. Object.

enableThunking(targets, thunkHandler)

Enables dependency thunking via require.

• targets target (or targets) to thunk. String or String[].
• thunkHandler the thunk handler, called when a target requires thunking. See #thunk-handler for the function signature.

clearThunkCache(targets)

Clears a portion of (or all of) the thunk cache.

• targets the target (or targets) to remove from the thunk cache. String or String[].

disableThunking()

Disables dependency thunking via require.
