js-file-req

js-file-req

This small module allows you a fast shortcut in order to require all files in a directory without needing to type and retype the fs functionality.

#Installation

• CD into your application directory: cd myApp
• Run NPM Install on the package: npm install js-file-req --save
• Require it in your index for a test: var requirer = require('js-file-req')
• Test functionality : console.log(requirer(__dirname))
• Check console and you should see an array of files in your directory

#Usage

• Define your module folder and create an index.js file.
• Inside this index js file require the requirer function var requirer = require('js-req-save');
• To generate the array of files call the function requirer(__dirname)
• Once you get the array back either use a forEach or a map function on the result.

  requirer(__dirname).forEach(function(file){
  	require(file)(app)
  });

  requirer(__dirname).map(function(file){
  	require(file)(app)
  });

• If you have a mix of objects and functions being output by your modules the following example should work

	requirer(__dirname).map(function(data){
		var type = require(data);
		if(typeof(type) === 'function'){
			type(app)
		}
	})

#Example Folder

• To run the example cd into the example folder
• Run npm install
• Run node index.js
• Navigate to http://localhost:5000/

#UPDATES Added contains functionality to test for .map contained in folder sourcemap files.
