match-requires

match-requires

Match require statements in a string. Returns an array of matching require statements. Each match is an object with line number, variable name, and module name. Statements in code comments are ignored.

Install

Install with npm:

npm i match-requires --save-dev

Run tests

npm test

Usage

var re = require('match-requires');
console.log(re('require(\'a-b-c\');\nvar fooBar = require(\'foo-bar\');'))

Returns:

[ { line: 1,
    variable: '',
    module: 'a-b-c',
    original: 'require(\'a-b-c\');' },
  { line: 2,
    variable: 'fooBar',
    module: 'foo-bar',
    original: 'var fooBar = require(\'foo-bar\');' } ]

Code comments

To ignore require statements found in code comments, pass true as the second arg:

re('/* require(\'a-b-c\');*/\nvar fooBar = require(\'foo-bar\');');

Returns:

[ { line: 2,
    variable: 'fooBar',
    module: 'foo-bar',
    original: 'var fooBar = require(\'foo-bar\');' } ]

You may also pass a custom function for stripping code comments.

var str = '/* require(\'a-b-c\');*/\nvar fooBar = require(\'foo-bar\');';
re(str, function(content) {
  return content.replace(/foo/, '');
});
