module-lookup-amd

module-lookup-amd

This module basically exposes the requirejs config map and path resolution logic and gives you back the real, absolute, path of (possibly) aliased modules names.

I built this for Dependents' jump to dependency feature that lets you click on a module name and open the file that name resolves to.

npm install module-lookup-amd

Usage

var lookup = require('module-lookup-amd');

var realPath = lookup('path/to/my/config.js', 'dependency/path', 'path/to/file/containing/dependency');

lookup(configPath, dependencyPath, filepath)

• configPath: the path to your RequireJS configuration file
• dependencyPath: the (potentially aliased) dependency that you want to lookup
• filepath: the filepath of the file that contains the dependency (i.e., parent module)

Shell usage

Assumes a global -g installation

lookup-amd -c path/to/my/config.js -f path/to/file/containing/dependency my/dependency/name
