|
|
Find the `module` object in `require.cache` for something that was `require()`d
|
||
|
|
or `import`ed - essentially a reverse `require()` lookup.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Useful for libs that want to e.g. lookup a filename for a module or submodule
|
||
|
|
that it did not `require()` itself.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Install and Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
npm install --save which-module
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
const whichModule = require('which-module')
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
console.log(whichModule(require('something')))
|
||
|
|
// Module {
|
||
|
|
// id: '/path/to/project/node_modules/something/index.js',
|
||
|
|
// exports: [Function],
|
||
|
|
// parent: ...,
|
||
|
|
// filename: '/path/to/project/node_modules/something/index.js',
|
||
|
|
// loaded: true,
|
||
|
|
// children: [],
|
||
|
|
// paths: [ '/path/to/project/node_modules/something/node_modules',
|
||
|
|
// '/path/to/project/node_modules',
|
||
|
|
// '/path/to/node_modules',
|
||
|
|
// '/path/node_modules',
|
||
|
|
// '/node_modules' ] }
|
||
|
|
```
|

## API
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### `whichModule(exported)`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Return the [`module` object](https://nodejs.org/api/modules.html#modules_the_module_object),
|
||
|
|
if any, that represents the given argument in the `require.cache`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`exported` can be anything that was previously `require()`d or `import`ed as a
|
||
|
|
module, submodule, or dependency - which means `exported` is identical to the
|
||
|
|
`module.exports` returned by this method.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If `exported` did not come from the `exports` of a `module` in `require.cache`,
|
||
|
|
then this method returns `null`.
