node-hook-filename

Hooking node require calls for specific extensions to only return the filename or the return value of a callback.

Usage

Returning filename

const nhf = require('node-hook-filename')

nhf(['.scss', '.svg'])

const scssAsset = require('../path/too/filename.scss')
const svgAsset = require('../path/too/filename.svg')
const normalRequire = require('../path/too/js/file')

// scssAsset === '../path/too/filename.scss'
// svgAsset === '../path/too/filename.svg'

// normalRequire is unaffected

Passing a callback function

const nhf = require('node-hook-filename')
nhf(['config'], (filename) => 'foo ' + filename)

const configRequire = require('config')
// configRequire will return 'foo config'

Handy if you are running a universal/isomorphic app that requires asset files.

This is mostly useful for testing and not production ready!
