ReQuireFrom (rqf)

Advanced require module for node.js. Removes the need for complex relative paths for require statements. Inspired by requirefrom module and the discussion here.

Installation

npm install rqf

Sample

    var rqf = require('rqf');
    var lib = rqf().module('lib');
    var sampleLib = lib('sample');

Usage

rqf allows unlimited nesting and the same api regardless of depth. It doesn't require configuration and by default computes the root path from your node_modules directory. If you rather want to use the current working directory use

    var rqf = require('rqf');
    rqf.base = rqf.cwd();

Please refer to the following examples

    // define rqf
    var rqf = require('rqf');

    // require sample from root directory
    var fromRoot = rqf('sample');

    // require sample from lib directory
    var fromLib1 = rqf().module('lib')('sample');

    // require sample from lib directory
    var lib = rqf().module('lib');
    var fromLib2 = lib('sample');

    // use current working directory as base
    var lib = rqf.cwd('lib')
    var fromLib3 = lib('sample');

    // nesting modules
    var sample = lib.module('sample');
    var fromLibSample = sample('myModule');
