Node Module System

What?

A means to create wrappers to common JS systems.

Why?

1. Emulating and wrapping common JS modules with more complex things like node_modules and package.json support is annoying.
2. Override builtins for w/e common JS you are using.
3. Bundling Stuff Together (Browserify, Node2Exec, etc.)

API

var createModuleSystem = require('module-system').createModuleSystem;
var ModuleSystem = createModuleSystem(cached,resolve,load);
ModuleSystem.runMain('main.js');

createModuleSystem(cached, resolve, load) => Module constructor

cached(parentModule, resolvedPath) => cachedModule

Tell the module system if this should be loaded from a cache

resolve(contextModule, path) => resolvedPath

Take a context from an existing module and resolve the path relative to it. If there is no context such as with runMain, the module argument will be null.

load(contextModule, resolvedPath) => void

Attach anything needed as contextModule.exports during this.

Module constructor.runMain(path)

Bootstraps an environment and loads up the main module.
